RE: Bitcoin is Promoting Freedom in Latin America
Thanks for sharing. Living in the U.S. and frequently facing Bitcoin skeptics, I think it's always important to keep a very international perspective. I recently heard Andreas Antonopolous say in a talk something like "I can't convince people in the US that Bitcoin is a good idea. I don't have to convince people in Brazil and Argentina that Bitcoin is a good idea."
That's awesome, well put by Andreas! I just read a book about Norman Borlaug ("The Man Who Fed The World") and his motto was "if you're not starving, your opinion doesn't count." That was his response to technocrats, bureaucrats, and others he considered elite and stood in the way of bringing modern farming to parts of the world that were starving.
lol that sounds great! "if you're not starving, your opinion doesn't count."
Sadly, in this case my opinion does not count :)
