I'd love to hear more about these same things,...any clue as to how crypto is being used in any of those places....
I'm from Asia, and to be more precise, I'm from the Philippines. As you already know, the economy here isn't that great. And we also experience what african natives does. The only difference is that we are over crowded here by criminals.
Bitcoins doesn't have much use here, only few people knows bitcoin or even the Digital Currency. And those who knows cryptocurrencies, they only use this for trading to gain more valuable coins and then tradr it into fiat. When it becomes money then it will be used for their everyday needs.
Some people make an investments on other platforms that is said crypto related but they only turn into a scam after they collected millions of Peso. People here are always easy to fool when it comes to money.
