Quote from the article: So let me, as someone who used bitcoin to survive in Venezuela, clear up the misconceptions: Bitcoin can’t fix the situation in Venezuela."

Personally, I never actually saw bitcoin to be the sort of "saving grace" that would fix Venezuela. I think bitcoin is too young to have such an effect. I only saw bitcoin, on it's current state(price volatility, low adoption, etc), as a temporary solution to at least make their lives slightly better, by having something to earn, and something as a hedge against the hyper-inflated bolivares.

Wait, are you claiming that you're the one who wrote that article?
