I think it depends on the situation. Bitcoin can only end the poverty of those who knows bitcoin,but those who dont know anything about bitcoin, they are always in poverty in thier entire life like on some places were technology have no room.
I agree with your opinion. Because it actually depends on the people who are experiencing poverty if they will try to help themselves and change their status through bitcoin. But we all know that some people have pride so we don't know if they will grab the opportunity of having an extra income to save them from the poverty they are facing now.
