...therefore we need bitcoin? Is this the new spin? People don't see it's a tech that was invented without a use case?
Many people don't have electricity too, what are you talking about?

- meheleventyone 5y agoIt also seems broadly ignorant of technology in the last decade that has done far more for unbanked people than crypto currencies.
- goesnowhere 5y agoUPI and M-Pesa have had far reaching effects to this regard. This narritive that crypto helps the unbanked is not true. If I'm wrong about crypto helping the unbanked, please provide any context or numbers to back up this claim. P.S. Let the poor countries solve their own problems, if you want to help donate money directly.
- meheleventyone 5y agoYes that's what I was saying I fully agree other tech has had way more impact on the unbanked. :)
- goesnowhere 5y agoWell then I appreciate you and respect you. Much love.
- meheleventyone 5y agoHigh five!

- egeozcan 5y agoI just searched and read a single quote from "them"(?): “If you don’t believe it or don’t get it, I don’t have the time to try to convince you, sorry.” — Satoshi Nakamoto That was fun, thank you.
