Can Bitcoin or any other altcoin help poor countries?
how? what can be done?

The problem is how bitcoin help poor countries ? Bitcoin is works like fiat and i think bitcoin can't do anything to poor countries. Bitcoin is not free money and you need works to earn it.

I'm not talking bitcoin is a free money..
Think in that way: You live in a poor country and for example you create sites, and for that job you earn $1/hour, $8/day, 240$/month. (USD)
So now you discover a freelancer site base in bitcoin, and you can earn now $5/hour, 5x more.
Something like that Wink

Bitcoin can't help an entire country. but it can surely help the person who use bitcoin if he's poor. and if a country have a lot of bitcoin users then it will surely be beneficial and for that country.
bitcoin need some contribution. if you contribute with bitcoin and crypto currencies . they will reward you for sure. but if you think bitcoin should give you fortune without doing anything just because you are a poor person then keep dreaming.

You are correct, dude. Btc can help and improve poor people, in Africa, Asian countries. They can make bitcoin by solving captcha, posting and do social campaign. Although the money is not a lot, it still can help to improve their life.

more precisely to help the poor people who really creative and able to evolve with the technology such as bitcoin. if they are less intelligent, it's useless, they will not get good results from bitcoin.

Because you live in a poor country you have to be less inteligent? Shocked

It's all about opportunities.

well i kind of doubt it can help poor countries, but at least bitcoin can prevent the poverty rates, bitcoin has already help so many people in economic, but it cant make people rich, one of the way for bitcoin to help poor countries is by held a donation and the give to the poor countries

Isn't about get rich, it's only about a better life.

Bitcoin cannot directly help them. But someone good who is willing to use bitcoin to help is a good idea.
It has a lot of functionalities that can be useful to anyone, for anyone.
Too bad that it is more used in illegal activities.

Yeap, unfortunaly a lot of people use bitcoin to illegal activities, gamble or just faucets... Or think bitcoin is free money or scam... Or just speculation value.

We have to think big.
