Re: Cuban government stance on Bitcoin, blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
That was the only crypto news I remember reading about Cuba
"December 6, 2018, will be a major milestone for the history of Cuba. It will be the first time that residents are able to access the internet on their mobile devices. This could potentially let Cubans embrace crypto. With the news still breaking, no exchange has made a push to access the region. However, it is presumed that there will not be any firewall restrictions.
....
However, there is still huge potential for growth of the crypto sector as it could potentially enter Cuba if citizens decide to invest in crypto. This might be the case since Cuba has one of the biggest restrictions on peoples lives. It is conceivable that citizens might opt to use crypto to gain economic freedom."

If by the end of 2018 in Cuba only started to enter the Internet, the Cubans still have a long way to master it, before they switch to the use of cryptocurrency. For more than sixty years, this country has been in isolation and in self-isolation. Now the people of Cuba are starting to get acquainted with the outside world in a new way, because the construction of socialism has actually thrown them away in development more than half a century ago."December 6, 2018, will be a major milestone for the history of Cuba.

That's highly untrue. I've been going to Cuba for the last 6 years and they've had internet access since 2016. It is scarce and you need to go to wifi access point in order to do so.
But many people in IT and engineers know about cryptocurrencies in Cuba.
If the government have no stance on it, then it is not "illegal". Knowing the right people a project could be set up there.
I'm looking into something that could be major for the Cuban people and would partially free them from their "double currency" system.
Anyone would have official statements or so please post.
Cuban government doesn't like foreigners intruding on their island and putting imperialist ideas on the minds of their
