The invention of blockchain technology is a much broader solution than its perceived solution in the eyes of the inventor: Satoshi Nakamoto.
So, we look at it as a form of currency, and its decentralized features create enablers but we don't see the part where it gets to be further expanded to become a source of job creation for borderless systems and a major means of livelihood.
People now get crypto-related jobs across continents without being known or being present in those locations and their identities are still pseudo-anonymous, only being made known by their portfolios and their wallet addresses or their usernames.
It is therefore pertinent to say that crypto has helped and is still helping a lot of people across the world, whether poor Nations or Nations in affluence.
