yes, i think bitcoin can help some poor countries
we can sent it to their delegation and they can exchange it to their countries currency then distribute it to all inhabitant
or they can hold it for future plans
If they are poor countries they need to get the basic amenities first before knowing about bitcoin. That translates to fiat before you can buy food, water, medicine and then get your own computer/smartphone along with internet in order to do bitcoin transactions.
It is not happening anytime soon if the governments dont work on it
I think bitcoin not to help poor countries, because it is not government that controls bitcoin. so the use of bitcoin is personal. I also do not sure the government will provide facilities such as internet and computers. unless the government helps in that regard I think bitcoin could help them.
