Computers for everyone. How will 3rd world countries get,earn,mine for bitcoins if they don't have computers?
How do people in 3rd world countries mines gold,oil, or other resources? The poor of any country will be left behind in the digital age much like they have been left behind currently. Near the end of the Roman empire, the top 1% owned over 16% of all the wealth, today in America the top 1% own over 40%.....
Are this stats realistic? Really?
I'm almost hesitant to doubt them.
The only one of those I know is true is that if you have spare money in the bank, you are among the worlds top 8% in wealth.
Me goggling while writing my post: Its actually 38 some percent of the wealth belong to the top 1%, so some projections might place it over 40.
Honestly, I think bitcoin might be the enabler that allows the lower classes to jump that gap.
As it stands, you need alot of money to get involved in high finance.
With bitcoin, you have just as much control over those bits as he does. You are free to put every single one where ever you want.
