Any exchange in Belarus, Macedonia, Montenegro, Georgia, Moldova, Armenia? I'd say most African countries don't have any exchange, then, there's Asia.

I think those countries (the African ones) need remittance companies most. They act as a kind of exchange, actually. But I agree that Africa seems to be a huge (mostly) untapped potential market.

African nations first need to be educated enough to use the internet/smart phone in general. Bitcoin comes later...

Fortunately, because of Moore's law and various other factors, it won't be long before even the poorest people living in the poorest countries have access to smartphones and the Internet. It's already happening now with sub-$30 Android smartphones, and the trend will undoubtedly continue in the future.

some country there have plenty of rich guys due to ptetroil, but apparently they aren't using it well, they just sit there and get richer...

i mean they coul build plenty of bitcoin exchange without problem

Those types of countries tend to have large income and wealth disparities. Not to mention the oil industry tends to favor the USD. So the total number of people who might be interested in Bitcoin might not be as high as you'd think.

North Korea for sure.

Also all those small countries that no one remembers, like Nepal or Mongolia.

And of course countries where BTC is forbidden, like Ecuador

Mongolia does not have a BTC exchange ? Really ? I heard FriedCat set up a mining firm over there. So, I guess they have some local buyer so that mining firm bills could be paid in local currency.

It's also possible that friedcat exchanged his coins to USD and then converted the USD to the local currency.

Not sure if here in Australia we have a legit one?

I'd be surprised if Australia doesn't have an exchange yet seeing as though New Zealand already has at least three (and possibly more):

Well technically the UK doesnt despite several exchanges beng based here banking wires are sent outside the country as SEPA. Local bitcoins is everywhere so that cant count.

I once used an exchange called Indacoin that was based in the UK. The SEPA stuff is very interesting although I don't think it disqualifies the UK from being a country that has its own exchange. If it's based there and can be used by their citizens then as far as I'm concerned, they have an exchange.
