Things are going more and more crazy in Venezuela. This year's inflation is 45%. All hopes are for the OPEC meeting on 30th November when the consortium decides about cutting the oil production. If it will not find an consensus then it is expected that oil price goes back down to $30-35 per barrel. If so this will end horrible for the country and its people.
Bitcoin may not help the Venezuelans much at all. If they barely manage to survive on their pay, of what real use would Bitcoin be for them then? Inflation may be hitting astronomical figures, and that would most likely lead to the widespread use of the American dollar in Venezuela with further removal of the Bolivar from currency circulation.
It may all end along the same lines as it ended in Zimbabwe.
