@OP Actually, someone from my team has reached out to that redditor, I'll let you know if there's a response. So far nothing yet.
@KingScorpio I don't think OP is deluded with visions of saving humanity. Of course there's a bigger underlying issue to solve, and perhaps whatever is going on with Bitcoin in Venezuela may not solve problems, but it's undeniable that there are some roles that can be played (and already played) to alleviate some of the money problems there.
Some people want to change the world, that's fine. Others just want to lend a helping hand. If Bitcoin's the vehicle, then why not? At least they're trying.
those families need an income source not bitcoins, whats the use giving them some bitcoins?
so the logical conclusion is that those people seek to mine crypto, i also recently watched a documentary about venezueala where the mining was indeed main topic. which is no good idea as some cryptos especially and most of all bitcoin is literally:
if venezuelans use their socialist provided urban infrastructure to mine bitcoin they will lose their socialist provided infrastructure soon enough, then they can kill each other about who has access to urban infrastructure to mine cryptos.
Throwing stones while sitting in a glass house, is no good idea.
mining bitcoin in a socialist provided urban electricity, water and internet infrastructure environment is litereally throwing stones on the socialist workers that develop/ed and upkeep/upkept those, so few the country may have today.
bitocoin is a very bad vehicle to fight poverty, the bitcoin sect, doesnt give it away for free it sells it for us dollars, and it speculates with it, using it mainly to pay influencers and media outlets, to keep the masses speculating with bitcoin and protect its attention, to keep the people speculating or introduce new coins, like they did with litecoin, bitcoin cash bitcoin etc. the venezualans dont need those bitcoins what they need are services they can buy with us dollars, or euros,
