Yeah I agree to that as well. It's more useful to send money abroad if you think about other services. Look at Western Union for example. They take so much money from you and you have to physically go into their locations to pick up the money. This is 2018! What a waste of time.

And PayPal steals a good chunk of money too. They'll take anywhere between 3-10% depending which country you're in, and are even banned in some countries by the governments. So if you're trying to send money home, and the government banned your local money transfer service, ask mom to get a bitcoin wallet.
