Currenrly not only bitcoin but nothing can to end world poverty. Sad fact is that we people don't care about each others. For example how can we have fun when we see some people are dying because they don't have money to buy food? Some guys have billions and some has nothing. This isn't correct, imagine that billions can save up to 1 000 000 and more poor people. Imagine even if top 1 billionare will give his money to poor people, situation will be absolutely better. How those billionares keep that billions and don't give even 1 cent to poor people when they see and read on news. They even can't spend their money during their life, why the hell do they want it? There must be limit of money per person and world will be better after that or purity will be endless. There is still so much to write in this post but who cares? It won't fix situation, no one will come, read my post and do chairity, 99% will hang on.
If the billionaires would be so caring, they would not become billionaires in the first place. I don't buy that "poor students with a great vision" can start IT colossus in their backyard. Books on Economics written for "leading managers" advise on making up heart breaking cute legends about the company founders - to create its positive image and motivate their employees to work extra time free of charge. Another thing is that you mast be extra careful to whom you give your money to, as the most Africans are less depended on the system, than the most Westerns, as they are capable of building their homes and getting their foods all by themselves (free of charge); so what they really need is helping them get rid off military regimes, still using them as slaves in exploring natural resources, which are sold to the "civilized world", rather than pumping with charity money different "non profitable" organizations, which will use them to sterilize the locals - "to prevent spreading of HIV". Check out videos where poor in Africa wash all day to get half gram of gold from the river and exchange it for a loaf of bread, while in "civilized world" half gram of gold can buy you 240 kilos of wheat, enough to bake a thousand loafs of bread - talk about slavery and blatant exploitation, which can be stopped only by government (but should the local government start really fight for human rights, it will be immediately overthrown or, if that fails, get under sanctions and embargo). It's a cruel world we leave in. "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms"...
