Still, the dollar rate is as a result of your country using it to purchase goods or should I say import and export produce on a regular basis, without depending on using its fiat to strengthen its economy by patronizing homemade products and development of other initiatives that would alleviate the plight of its citizens.

The rate of dollar influence would soon or if not already being deflecting as it units of exchange from other local currencies during purchases of payments of services has only been boasting the economy of the USA and the USD was being overrated including the rest fiats which the governments or regulatory authorities has never intercepted its value to contribute to the growth of their own economy values. So the global adoption of bitcoin has made it a pride to counter those grains hindering economy growths.
It also help individual to reservations of expenses such as tax payments and reduces transaction charges which the central policies is overwhelming.

What do you say on this matter?
Banknote and Digital Currency {Bitcoin} are all meant to buy things both in physical shops and online vendors. And countries are trying to adapt to the adoption of the digital currency upon all the restrictions many had laid on it but seen the benefits of it, some lift up the ban.

And many people were excited because bitcoin is decentralized and out of government control and bitcoin is volatile and it is store of value. So people became conscious and like bitcoin the more. If bitcoin transaction is low and retail businesses accept bitcoin as a method of payment. Dollar does devalue bitcoin so the price of things will not be influenced by dollar anymore. But the international market might still affect the price of things because there they would still used dollar for exchange unless the vendors are accepting bitcoin at that level as well. In my own understanding if bitcoin is adopted as a legal tender in my country the cost of living will reduce. The cost of in my country is on the peak that those who are receiving $80 as salary is nothing but a peanut which can't buy anything reasonable in the market again. Dollar is just playing with the Banknote in my country. And the best way is for the retail businesses to accept bitcoin if the transaction fee is low so that things will be okay for the poor. I am very happy that within this almost one year period I was not in the forum, I have invested some reasonable amount of bitcoin.
Welcome Back to the forum.

I don't know you country but I think you are getting something wrong, from what you are saying you aren't in the US I guess, and the original owners of the US dollars is the United States of America but the globe has seen the US as the universal value of finance, we practical calculate finances in the US dollars.

So if anything those who earn in your local currency should fill it the most than those who earns in the US dollars. Because your currency is deprecating to the US dollars making those who earn in dollars have more when they concert to your Local currency but the sad truth is that the price of things would also increase in your country.

Bitcoin may not be able to solve this completely because the economy of your country needs to also improve and your leaders has their part to play .

This is a good decision because people have other alternatives to fiat currency in terms of purchasing anything, but not all countries have implemented it and there are still many countries that see bitcoin as an investment asset. Now there are many online shops that accept payments using bitcoin even though we are in a country that prohibits transaction activities using bitcoin. If the benefits of bitcoin can provide a path to freedom then there is no harm in us taking advantage of it, but I still like bitcoin as an investment asset to this day.

The cost of in my country is on the peak that those who are receiving $80 as salary is nothing but a peanut which can't buy anything reasonable in the market again. Dollar is just playing with the Banknote in my country. And the best way is for the retail businesses to accept bitcoin if the transaction fee is low so that things will be okay for the poor.

That's quite a small income and even in the country where I live if we earn a salary of $80 every month then just food costs are not enough. If someone earns such an income, I am sure that they will not be able to carry out investment activities in Bitcoin because just talking about needs is not enough and how can they possibly set aside that money for investment. I want to know how much income you make every month and what investment formula you would use if you got that much income every month.

Bitcoin is real. I promise it's the best deal. See the dollar? It's a disaster. Prices fluctuate widely. Makes running a business and grocery shopping miserable. Bitcoin, though? Stable. Secure. The government cannot touch the future. We need that type of winning.

It's not just fancy investors. Bitcoin restores authority to the people.  Countries are smartening and seeing opportunity. Openness to Bitcoin offers more freedom for everyone. Actually your money. No banker's toy. I desire that planet.

Businesses, please join. Bitcoin transactions are cheaper and faster. That means things get cheaper. For everyone, not just the rich. Imagine your paycheck buying something useful. This is possible with Bitcoin. This isn't about instant riches. Building a better system. A fairer system. A system where America wins, and everyday people win too.


There is no need to talk bad about USD or any country's currency because whether they are good or bad, they are all part of our lives, we still have to use it every day even if you have bitcoin.

Additionally, bitcoin transactions are neither cheaper nor faster than current fiat systems. There were also times when I had to spend 5-10 USD per bitcoin transaction and I even had to wait up to a week to complete my transaction. Nothing is perfect and our world will be better when Fiat and bitcoin exist side by side.

I'm not aware of bitcoin has ever influenced the naira before or if any of  the centralized currencies has ever influenced bitcoin being a decentralized digital currency before. Dollar is only a universal currency which is rated by the value of the bitcoin else Investors or bitcoin holders wouldn't be able to know the financial values of the holdings of the bitcoin.
Op, I can also tell you that if bitcoin I generally accepted without being restricted as it maybe, it wouldn't still change the economy system of the countries were it's valid. Rather it would offetonly have the potential probabilities to limit poverty specifically to the holders. Hence I know, bitcoin economy is not affiliated with the global economy system.

Do you think that bitcoin can never turn the wheels of a country's economy if the government of that country has not given legitimacy to bitcoin, then they can never transact openly through bitcoin. But some of the investors who are investing in bitcoins may be getting some financial gain as they are able to live comfortably but not as much as they are able to cross the threshold. But day by day people's popularity towards bitcoin is increasing more and more people are showing more interest towards bitcoin thus if the number of bitcoin investors increases and the value of bitcoin increases of course they can do better things through bitcoin in future.
Dude, just look at El Salvador, so far they're not on any economic journals and news yet that says that they're growing as a country because they've legitimized bitcoin in their country, they're probably more famous now with doing a very strong and iron fist policy against crime, the president and the country of El Salvador is cleaning up the streets of gangs and that's where they're focused now. Now when it comes to their adoption of bitcoin, I believe that they'd probably benefit even more and we would see more economic growth if the people of El Salvador is also using it but it seems to be not the case. Sadly, just because bitcoin's a legal tender doesn't mean that it will make a country prosper.

This is certainly the future we are hoping to see. I do think that it’s quite in the long run still especially more and more people becoming interested in bitcoin. We can expect that the mempool will be a lot more congested thus increasing the price value of transaction fees.

Another thing, I do not see my country progressing into adaption of bitcoin any time soon. There are no bans but there really is no support either from the government. This is why I know it will take a lot of time for bitcoin to come close to becoming a legal tender if it will ever be in my country.

I don't know how bad the economy is in your country but even if everyone in your country uses bitcoin and the price skyrockets to an ungodly price, the economy would still be so bad because of the factor that not every person that's holding a bitcoin is going to be a responsible person, the moment that you get a bitcoin and that you can sell it for so much, a lot of those people are going to choose the route of selling quickly. It will improve the lives of everyone that would sell and may boost the economy for some time but it's not a long-term prosperity that's going to lead anyone to a really good kind of growth. Economics is a difficult thing to tackle on and even harder to solve with just one simple solution, if that was the case, a lot of countries would be fighting over bitcoins that are newly minted and they want to get it as soon as possible so they can improve their economy.

Bitcoin might be the best option, but it is a threat to government control over its citizens. Hence why many sue for taxes and details of transactions from the exchanges.

So far, there has been moves to regulate BTC and cryptocurrencies in general, since cryptocurrency can't totally be ignored in this century when AI, web3, virtual reality has been so developed and gaining usership.

Inflation has sure risen and keeps doing so, and many independent businesses accept payments and make payments across borders without spending much on bank fees and charges. Though, it costs a bit to withdraw or send BTC, but as compared to how much tax is expected of everyone and how much the fiat banks would require to complete ones transaction, BTC has sure been a safe haven and would be much accepted before it gets to another ATH in the future.

Still, the dollar rate is as a result of your country using it to purchase goods or should I say import and export produce on a regular basis, without depending on using its fiat to strengthen its economy by patronizing homemade products and development of other initiatives that would alleviate the plight of its citizens.

The cost of living is as a results of various economical challenge.In a nutshell,the dollar rate has increasingly made the cost of living  threathening and unsafe for us.As the value of the USD erodes due to inflation and other factors, costs of things also rise, thus inducing a higher import cost for businesses and trade.

This means that when the dollar appreciates, other currencies essentially depreciate, making the world poorer and less able to engage in trade. It also makes countries that have dollar-denominated debt less creditworthy, as it makes it harder for them to purchase the U.S. currency to manage their debts.

When it comes to fiat currency, the United States dollars is the world reserve currency, Switching to Bitcoin running economy isn't still the solution to fixing an economy where inflation is high, because as it stands, I don't think if the world is ready to do away with the fiat currency, the need will still be there, I see Bitcoin play more of the role of Gold, that's a store of value and a hedge against inflation than replacing local currency.

However, an economy can be fixed by increasing or encouraging local production, which will automatically increase supply to put pressure on increasing prices of goods and services and further increase exportation, Government should also build things that will attract foreign investors to invest in the country, thereby increasing the demand for one's local fiat currency and further strengthen and appreciate its value.

As I said earlier Dollar does affect the fiat currency but it does affect bitcoin to be devalued
dollar does not affect bitcoin
Apart from the fact that you contradicted yourself in two paragraphs, dollar on its own is not affecting the cost of stuff including fiat exchange rate in other countries. What affects them is the decisions of the governments of those countries.

Well I will agree with you and also disagree with you. I agree with you in the area that the policy of government affect the exchange rate in the international market and probably the tax the government takes from the international businessmen will make them to increase price to cover up the tax the government has taken from them. So from that angle things would increase in price the customers would suffer for it.
And why I said dollar affect the local production and high cost of living because in my country once dollar rate is increase in the exchange market everything would increase tremendously. Therefore dollar have a big say in my country. Though government policy follow but external body ask the internal body to devalue their currencies.

Bitcoin transaction fees can be low but it’s unfortunate that it isn’t fixed. The last time I made a transaction, it cost me about $2 but I remember about 2 months ago when it was as much as $12.

Dollar doesn’t devalue Bitcoin. The worth of Bitcoin can be described with any currency (even cryptocurrency) as it must not always be with dollar. People are just fond of using dollar as it has dominated the world. So whether you directly purchase from vendors with Bitcoin or you trade it for dollar, as long as you’re using the money instantly, it’s the same thing.

Some banknotes have value while some did not have good value in global market especially those countries that depend on USDT to import and export goods. Dollar rate has affected many country’s economy which has made their local currency less valuable and as a result of that, inflation affected their economy.

Holding local currency is not advisable because of how inflation is affecting se country’s currency; instead, we should invest in Bitcoin that can store value so as to get the use of your investment anytime you are ready to use your money.

Apart from the fact that you contradicted yourself in two paragraphs, dollar on its own is not affecting the cost of stuff including fiat exchange rate in other countries. What affects them is the decisions of the governments of those countries.

For example when they keep printing their national currency, they devalue that fiat and consequently price of everything goes up against their fiat.

The only case where dollar comes in is when that other country is an importer of US inflation. In simple terms that is when US prints dollar out of thin air and purchases real goods and services from that country.

Now, granted bitcoin has created great opportunities for a small number of individuals in different countries to make some additional money and improve their own personal financial situation, but as a whole it is not affecting the economy at a large scale.
I am agreed with you on this note, because the government policies are the ones affecting the cost of living in most countries and the increase of the dollar by devalueing their currencies by thinking that by doing that their states economies would be better but the opposite always display for them. Dollar might play a vital role in the increase of things in the country though you have started it and it is very much clear for average educated person to understand and really if the country uses imported goods then it is possible that stuff that were imported from the other country would create inflation in the receiving country.

And for the transaction fee, Bitcoin transaction fee is good now so business can accept bitcoin as one the payment method in the business.

Bitcoin's transaction fees can fluctuate significantly, potentially hindering its widespread adoption by merchants due to the unpredictability of costs. Additionally, its inherent price volatility poses challenges for everyday transactions, as businesses and consumers may be hesitant to accept or spend an asset with a fluctuating value. The accessibility of Bitcoin infrastructure and technology is a crucial factor. While some may be comfortable navigating digital wallets and exchanges, a significant portion of the population, particularly those with limited technological literacy or access, may face barriers to using Bitcoin effectively. This raises concerns about potential financial exclusion and the need for inclusive solutions to ensure equitable access.

While technological innovations can offer valuable tools, it's important to recognize that they are not panaceas for complex economic challenges. Focusing solely on Bitcoin adoption without addressing fundamental issues like job creation, domestic production, and sound economic policies may not lead to the desired outcomes. A holistic approach that leverages technology alongside other strategies is crucial for achieving sustainable economic development.

If you only get paid $80 per month, that means $1 is valuable for you, but Bitcoin transaction fee now cost for $1 per transaction, it means you're need to spend twice amount when purchase a small thing. Don't talk about lightning network or side chains, it's not yet well adopted right now, don't expect government or businesses to accept it in soon.

The main problem of poor people are the jobs, not the currency.
The main problem of developing countries are the human resources.
For now maybe yes but the fees are not always like that, but sometimes it is lower than a dollar too. If we need a thing often, well yeah it's better to spend or buy in bulk as it can save us not only fee but also time and effort. Lightning Network is not a new thing so I believe the adoption for it is already high but it's just that we don't notice it because many people are still contented with the main chain of BTC and then it was less promoted or supported.

When you say human resources are you referring to the HR when we apply for a job? Well they can be strict because this was their job, so I won't really put the blame on them if we can't get accepted. Maybe we only lack of things that they are looking for, but we can always improve and try again. Sometimes it also has to do with luck.
