No. Bitcoin was never intended to end poverty. I dislike articles as this one.

As simple as it is. No! Bitcoin intends to help those individaul to have more income not to end all poverty. It may certainly help individual to tie loose ends and have a more decent living thn the other. You need money to invest in bitcoin in the first place.
