Polymathic Pedagogue on Nostr: I can't speak about Palestine, but for locations like Ukraine Bitcoin can help ...
I can't speak about Palestine, but for locations like Ukraine Bitcoin can help fleeing refugees to take their wealth with them without necessarily getting hassled at border crossings, whether into Poland, Romania, or elsewhere.
While I can't cite specific news articles, anecdotal evidence from those I know on the ground indicated that in the early weeks of the invasion, many refugees may have had trouble bringing cash or even gold with them across international borders.
If you have a seed phrase in your head (or less securely saved somewhere in the cloud), you could theoretically pass without any problems and then reclaim your wallet on the other side once you relocate to a new location.
So how does #Bitcoin helps in war tormemted countries like Palestine?
