I got into Bitcoin when I needed to send across borders as there was FX restriction in my country. I tried several options but none was a success until someone suggested Bitcoin and behold it made the entire thing easier, cheaper and faster. Bitcoin actually helped me then and on many occasions, I have used Bitcoin to pay for goods and services across borders and for that I'm grateful. Now I have seen that holding Bitcoin is also another wonderful opportunity, it even make it more addictive for me, the reason I'm so passionate about Bitcoin.
I had the exact same situation. I needed to transfer money to another country, but in my state there is still a restriction on such operations due to sanctions. Crypto, of course, came to the rescue. I used not only Bitcoin, but also Litecoin for transactions. Everything went successfully. To this day, crypto helps me out in this way. I am glad that there is such an opportunity.
I can say one thing: crypto is definitely not about wealth. There is no need to be as naive as others. This is not the direction where you get huge amounts of money.
