Yeah right!
The guy who wrote this, surely doesn't live in south america.
our currency is so crappy and unstable that every single business is calculated in dollars or euros, and even that, we have 4 different prices for them, official exchange rate, export exchange rate, black market (goverment controlled) exchange rate (yeah, it is ridiculous! but true!, government controls the black market rate too (or at least they say so hehe)) and true black market exchange rate.

Pay with credit scam (sorry, credit card) is a pain, tons of checks, credit card company holds, ridiculous fees, ridiculous exchange rates (they do as they fit)
I don't EVEN want to begin to talk about paypal!.

I can go on for hours with this.

bitcoin is great!, I buy whatever i want, whenever i want NOW, no limitations, no problems, no nothing, just put the fucking amount, press sent and that's it!, MAN IT IS FANTASTIC!

Only an idiot could not see the revolution bitcoin is, if at least used it once!.

I also had doubts when I first came in contact with cryptos, but give it a chance, and loved it!.

Interesting that even when using dollars foreign countries would still have different exchange rates for them, you would think arbitrage would settle those differences. Bitcoin does solve alot of problems but its still very expensive for both buyer and seller, at least in developed countries where fiat does have definite advantages.
