ok so if a whale hands out Bitcoin paper wallets to homeless people
would they know how to redeem and use the money or hold the bitcoin?
would they learn it?
maybe some of them would become bitcoiners or even programmers and valuable to the ecosystem

who wants to join me doing this

we need people in the usa, where there are the most homeless people on the planet, who are whales and want to help the cause handing out some paper wallets on a daily basis


No, it won't work. If someone is homeless on the world these days there is some problem with this person... Familiar issues, drugs issues, alcohol issues, gambling issues and it's not with Bitcoins that you will save their lifes. These people won't manage well the coins and will waste it very fast.

If money was the solution for them they would be rich by saving all the tips they earn every day (they have food, and drinks for free), specially in the USA where you say there are more homeless people in the world... What would work better is if you give them some job, tasks to be completed, so you can reward them with BTCs for their job.
