Awesome! And then they can do what exactly with it?
The problem of the unbanked isn’t the lack of access you seem to think it is, the problem of the unbanked is they don’t have enough money to bother with a bank account. You put them on the “game changing decentralized Bitcoin network” and their problem is not having enough crypto.

The problem is the shitty fees the crypto pimps charge, and the high transaction costs of crypto, not lack of money. There’s over a billion Alipay users, hundreds of millions of mobile payment users in India, mpesa in Africa has 50 million users. Street vendors will take them for transactions in the $1 level. Most crypto just sucks at that (it is cheaper than smuggling gold to or from the gulf into India though) But especially in the US privileged folk conflate the desire & ability to have cheap mobile payments & money transfers with crypto.

Are you saying people making $1.37/day aren’t looking to use their $1,000 phones to move their wealth around after exchanging it for a mystery currency that can change value by 50% overnight? Using a network that even most well educated westerners are reportedly too stupid to understand?
Fack.

There’s like 5 billion people with a smartphone, it ain’t the barrier. The costs - and the need - are. You can buy gold natively in some Indian payment apps.

BTC taking a leg down, I just got a buy order filled. Fingers crossed for further downside. Link is on a bender. Snowing hard. Going skiing tomorrow.
Not sure I can handle all the excitement!Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.

QE infinity?
Will be real interesting (and scary) if the economy tanks and inflation doesn't cool after some rate increases. J-Pow's hands are tied here. Will this be similar to 2018 when J-Pow lost the chicken rate game? Still got a 30T credit card tab to consider too. Should be good times going into the midterm elections.

I’m a spectator. I only buy out of favor income and dividend securities to hold. I like that $NUSI is getting liquidated and hoping for the same in $JEPI. Bought $T and $VZ in December.
Consensus seems to be BTC to the high 30’s but markets tend to disappoint consensus.

Thanks for the discount, I just got filled at 40.3k. But there is a niggling anxiety!

I sold all the way up, but more in the 50s. Been rebuying down through the 40s. And I still have dry powder.

Hate to pin my hopes on an alt, but I am watching link very closely, hoping against hope it can carry the weight of my portfolio.Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.
