Poverty is a serious problem that has not been resolved for thousands of years, even in developed countries even though there is still poverty. Government policy is the main factor that can make poverty drastically decrease.
Government policy can help, but it will never be enough, then that is why some propose communism as the answer but it is not, we must accept the fact there is always going to be a uneven distribution of wealth and we must do our best to get our share of that wealth.

Poverty is a serious problem that has not been resolved for thousands of years, even in developed countries even though there is still poverty. Government policy is the main factor that can make poverty drastically decrease.
Theoretically, bitcoin can save many people from poverty, but in practice all the poor need to provide a computer with the Internet and teach them how to use all this. So while this is on the verge of fiction.
exactly leave IT zone,poor family can even afford day meal as well,bitcoin is only for those who are looking for investor or traders who have sufficient money so they can risk.poor people cant even think to invest money as they do not have enough money to full fill their needs.primary objective is to give them a education and knowledge to improve their financial condition.

According to Ahmed, Akhter U.; Hill, Ruth Vargas; Smith, Lisa C.; Frankenberger, Tim (October 2007). "Characteristics and causes of severe poverty and hunger" based on studies in 20 countries, major causes of poverty were the inability of poor households to invest in property and education, limited access to credit, systematic exclusion of ethnic minorities, scheduled castes, tribes, women and people with disabilities and health issues partially due to these classes not having access to institutions and markets.
Bitcoin and other crypto currencies by the essence have potential to effectively address those issues and produce noticeable improvements. I think we will see results of this during our lifetime.
One of the goal of our project - Traveloco - is to make traveling more affordable for different categories of people including first time travelers, thereby increasing general knowledge about other countries, their history and current issues. We think that increased global awareness of the issues suffered by certain regions will be productive move towards solving the problem of poverty.

When bitcoin prices go up, I will sell everything and I will buy a luxury house in the world and will buy the world's most expensive bicycles.
For example I have no money from the first one can now make money from bitcoin ,, success deh for bitcoin.
We know that Bitcoin has a lot of advantages. It helped unemployed people to have a source of income while at home. And even helped those who have stable jobs to have another source of income. But I don't think bitcoin can help end world poverty. Proper education can. Even if there are lots of bitcoins available in the world, if people are not well educated and didn't understand its uses and functions it can't help them end poverty.
And think about it, people from the very poor countries don't really have the luxury of online access so it would be very hard for btc to reach out to these places. Bitcoin can make real money for people but it has it's limitations as well especially when it comes to accessibility. Unfortunately, as much as how high our hopes are, poverty can only be ended by governments and the society helping each other out.

I don't think bitcoin can help end world poverty as poverty is not currencies but a set of values and a product of laziness and slothfulness. I think we can all be rich, prosperous and wealthy if we can work hard intelligently. Bitcoin on the other hand is a reward for hard work it may be through services like signature campaign, programme and others online services or selling of goods and investment.
Exactly. Imagine if all people are not very picky on the jobs that are offered then poverty is going to be lessened to a very low percentage. The mindset of people nowadays is they want a prestigious, easy, and huge salary jobs. So the answer is no it will not. We are, oureselves the problem.
The many benefits of bitcoin, among others, is reduce unemployment, poverty is a matter of equity, even though there is acute poverty sure bitcoin will continue to exist because many greedy people in this world.
If anything the inequality is getting higher every year the richer are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer, bitcoin is money, and the only purpose of money is to facilitate trade, the mission of bitcoin is not to end poverty, that is not going to be possible at all since that is the way our economic system is designed, there are winners and there are losers.
bitcoin has provided opportunities to millions of people not to just some wealthy dudes. It has made many poor people rich. Capitalism and open market system is an enemy to end poverty while bitcoin is a chance an opportunity to grab. You can rather buy and hold or you can work online and earn through advertising. So bitcoin is contributing a lot to provide an alternative to control poverty.Exactly the opposite.
In communism and socialism we were all poor. Trust me as I lived for long years in a former communist country.
And now only 6% of the population is below the poverty line.
And bitcoin, bitcoin is the definition of capitalism.
Who has money to invest will make more money, who is dirt poor and has no money he will still be dirt poor.
Definitely not. While some people find bitcoin as something profitable, that's not the case to other people. This is all a zero sum game. As you're earning money, somebody out there is losing money. We're basically just increasing the pot stake by converting our fiat into bitcoins. After that, we're all basically just taking away money from each other.
Bitcoin can end world poverty. It might be profitable to some, but that will not be the case to all. Just like all the other money making method in the world. Plumbing, for example, is profitable to people that knows how that business work. If I start doing plumbing, I wouldn't make as much as them simply because I don't know it at all. If we all start doing plumbing, it would stop being profitable because everyone's already doing it. This is the same case with bitcoins.
World poverty just can never end. There will always be people that will do major mistakes in life that would lead to them becoming poor.

Let me see if I get this.
Definitely not, bitcoin can end poverty, world poverty will never end.
You're doing more flip flops than Donald Trump.
maybe but.its hard to understand what its bitcoin for beginners like me. reading many blogs can help but for me it take days for understand. and we dont know site that are legit or fake!!
It is hard to understand?
We'll you got the first step right, open a bitcointalk account , post 1 liners in probably one week I'll see you with a campaign sig.
It wont help to resolve world's poverty but bitcoin can provide someone economical stability. As long as they are knowledgeable on how tho earn bitcoins. Poverty is a very big issue that the world is facing. It would need more focus from the world leaders to reach out the poorest.
It will not provide anything and I believe that bitcoin or even other coins can never solve this issue. Poverty is not only a big issue but it is also a main thing which connects to humankind. If there is not poverty, there will be no humanthe only thing it can do, in rare and individual cases, to make you earn an extra income. For example, if I'm taught about mining, I might be able to make some
extra money, but that's a whole different thing which has nothing to do with poverty.
You can learn anything you want about mining but won't solve your problem.
To start earning from mining you first need capital to invest in gear.
So it means that from the start your are not poor as you can afford those.
It can hardly even have an effect on someone, it can just help you earn some extra cash supposing you have the funds or the necessary equipment to do so. If you live
on the poverty line, none of these really matter.

If bitcoin will end poverty, it started maybe 5 or 6 years ago.

For me no... because bitcoin is simply just a currency unlike other real currency like dollars... have you seen dollars end world poverty.. No... But bitcoin does offer good ROI if you buy it and sell high
The world is big and I doubt too that bitcoin will end poverty. Only few people will benefit on fighting poverty with bitcoin. But once the government started to educate people about bitcoin, I guess this will help their citizens to have a better way to fight poverty and just spread the word all around the world.
You can really help spreading the word by means of communications and social media can be our bridge beyond our troubled life of proverty nowadays. Actually poverty is a daily part of our lives since we are kid but to make a clearer overview that it's not the fault of our parents that we're in poverty but It's our fault if we die enheriting poverty or direct term as poor person. With that dedication and hardwork and through your motivations of bitcoin, I am confident that we'll supress proverty around thr world but we cannot end it up totally.
Poverty has been existing and it has being pass to the next generations. Even if we spread the word by social medias and other means of communications. How about those poor countries and places that can't even touched an old nokia phone since they grow old? This is the reality about life.
Definitely no, Bitcoin can end the poverty of a person who knows bitcoin, but to those who don`t know about bitcoin on how to earn bitcoin the poverty is always there.
Bitcoin can not end poverty all over the world, but it can help a poor person become rich. It's the same currency as everyone else and it needs to be earned or bought.
It wont help to resolve world's poverty but bitcoin can provide someone economical stability. As long as they are knowledgeable on how tho earn bitcoins. Poverty is a very big issue that the world is facing. It would need more focus from the world leaders to reach out the poorest.
Of course it will be impossible to solve, because not everyone in the world will use bitcoin let alone poor people who do not understand the internet and certainly do not have gadgets to use bitcoin. This is an impossible task to be solved by bitcoin even the government though Jump to:
