There are other examples but I think people might get the gist of this without them.

Those who wish to help the poor can donate money to charities or propose government assistance. Bitcoin may yet be another method.

Bitcoin helps everyone, the same things you have listed here that it is doing for the poor is the same that it does for the rich, no difference. Bitcoin helps the poor, I think people needs to understand that it is different from saying that it makes the poor rich, because I see some people who keeps saying that Bitcoin makes the poor rich, which isn’t really true.

Of course, it can make the poor rich, but how many of the poor people out there can invest the little money they have and leave it there for long till the price goes up? I have seen stories of some people that tried investing in Bitcoin, but they couldn’t wait for long before selling those coins to solve their daily needs, and after they have sold the coins the price will go up. So it’s never easy, they still have to work.

People lacks patience, they can't invest money and look away for a long term without coming back and take the money out, I guess we can't all the determined, we can't all follow the same path, that's what human beings are anyways

Bitcoin is the reason why I have a new life today, the old me was a very poor guy from Africa, I knew my life could change if I went all into crypto thing and I started the hard way, faucets, Airdrops, etc just to gather some money to invest in bitcoin, it thus work out for me after a whole year of hunting for Airdrops, now I'm a miner, staker and also investor too, thanks to Bitcoin
