I have read few posts about how crypto and BTC can change the country for the better, and I fully agree to this but what if the leaders of the country are all corrupted? In this case I don't expect Bitcoin to help a bit, the leaders will find ways to start using crypto to their own advantage, maybe embezzlement of the country's fund.
If your leaders are corrupt don't bother trying to force them to do anything that will make the country grow using Bitcoin and crypto, it is not going to work.
Bitcoin is not the solution to countries with high poverty rate if the leaders are all corrupt.
I don't even think that bitcoin and cryptocurrency can help a country's economy in a better direction, let alone that they can help alleviate poverty in a country. Cryptocurrencies in general and bitcoin in particular are being used by us as an investment and for that we need money. Poor people, where do they get the money to invest in bitcoin?
Not to mention, bitcoin is just a financial market, which means investing in bitcoin can make a profit or it can make us lose. How can we escape poverty if our investments lose money?
As bitcoin investors, we always hope it will get better and better and can bring more benefits to the world. But let's be realistic and admit that Bitcoin is just like gold or other assets. It cannot help improve a country's poverty or unemployment or reduce a country's corruption rate.
