Given the events in Afghanistan over the last week, it is a great example of where bitcoin could have been of great use to the people of the country. The currency, the Afghani, fell to record lows. Anyone who owned bitcoin was protected and could escape the country with their assets, not worrying about capital controls or confiscation at the border.
I haven't really read any news that would indicate that the average Afghan could even get acquainted with the advantages of cryptocurrencies, and far from being able to own them at all with the low standard of life. The keyword here is that something
could have been helpful if people had known it at all, that is, if they had the infrastructure that would allow them to create the conditions for the adaptation of new technologies. What they have unfortunately had for the past 20 years is a false promise that brought them back to square one.
