a dozen eggs costs 8 or 9$ so it is impossible to live like that
Instead of cloud mining, it sounds like you need some chickens.

LMAO!!

Well, it is not fun, I visited Cuba several years ago and I know that it is true. The fact that there are few chickens in the island, importations are restricted, and the Government give a few to each citizen every month make remaining eggs surprisingly expensive and only affordable for tourists.

I want to clarify something in this forum, because I see that it is something very serious, I am realizing that 90% of the world population is unaware of the reality of Cuba, the government shows exchange rates that are not real, those numbers are only possible. For the foreigner or tourist who is visiting and can buy things in Cuban pesos, in reality for us each USD costs us 250 pesos, therefore do the respective calculations, NOTHING or NO information that the government shows to the world is REAL, just show something beautiful, a mirage, we Cubans live in a parallel universe, I'm not saying that, you can go to any other chat and talk to a Cuban so they can see the harsh reality we go through. Here I leave you a YouTube video about some of the money in my country: the bad thing is that it is in Spanish, I will look for some in English

This is also true: there are extremely different exchange rates for Cuban pesos (for citizens) and USD pegged pesos (for foreigners); 1 to 250 is not what I saw when I was there, but in the last years thing may have worsen to that extent.
