The poor do not have internet to use bitcoin, and it's probably impossible to pay in their country with bitcoin. So while to help the poor bitcoin will still have to be exchanged for the usual currency of their country.

Help the poor trough education and infrastructure investments, clean water and through out the dictator in their countries.

this is a great idea and I support it, but we need a leader who will take this money and start organizing this activity...for some reason it is not profitable for anyone, for example, that Africa could be with water...we spend so much money on space exploration, and we haven't the opportunity to give drinkers thirsting? that's bullshit

The belief of the contribution towards the needy arises only when we think that we hold the key towards excellence in earning BTC. As being a part the crypto-currency world it is our duty to contribute towards the needy ( I personally donate to our locality charity, especially for the upliftment of the children who have abandoned by their parents ) and again since we believe that the Lord rewards those with a helpful heart.
We must also not forget that there are millions in the world who are financially insecure. They need a support to believe that they can also earn in millions and become financially secure. I will dedicate myself towards delivering the knowledge that I have gained and will continue to learn in the crypto-currency world, to the insecure so that they join BTC and become financially secure. I sincerely believe that this a better donation than contribution of BTC to the needy.

I think it is possible that cryptocurrency can be used to feed the poor but the problem is how can you teach to the poor about cryptocurrency or bitcoin. They will not easily understand it. Also they still need to invest time, effort and even money before they can earn.

that's the real issue since they are lack in knowledge and capacity to understand this new system maybe if developers will make some portions of their
earnings to build a charity house and give them shelter and food that's still possible to feed the poor.

The poorest of people in the world can not even read or write, it's not possible for them to use crypto because of this.

Well here's another thought. If someone who's raking up a lot of btc each day would be up to it, he can feed the poor through cryptocurrency. People who are earning btcs can join up and make feeding programs to feed the poor. So crypto basically can do it through it's users

If you really wants to feed the poor, you have many other things to do in the beginning:
- To rescue them from the conflict or war zone
- provide them with clean drinking water
- ensure a regular distribution of food
- ensure regular education and security

In order to do all this things, you don't need bitcoin but government support, many volunteers, security...
You can't provide these basic things with bitcoin. Bitcoin, in his story, can come on the end, not in the beginning.

Crypto currency can not help to feed all people on the planet. I earn a crypto currency only to support my family, but I still do not have enough to charity to do so without harm.

Wow, for me, this thought is just heart warming. If there would be a campaign or something that would be the main goal is to give to the poor, I believe many would participate. People care about their own lives but when the time comes or they are given the opportunity to help, I think people just have this want or longingness to extend a helping hand.

This is silly. People already donate money, time, things, they don't need crypto for this.

What you're really asking is why don't we all as people who are into Crypto ALL get together and help the needy.

Again, it's an individual thing.

I'm too sleepy, but basically the logic is faulty.

I'm all for helping those who need help, but this like saying to the video game community, "What's the matter with you guys? Why haven't we built video games to feed the poor." Feed video games to the poor.

I agreed if someday has Company create Coin for the poor people,

Lets say PoorCoin. I think will help homeless people.

Maybe not only from ICO, company can share some profit from every transaction maybe 1%

It will help all the poor people.

i am poor, i still live with my parent, i am 44 years old but can't afford a house.
i eat noddles everyday but cryptocurrencies help me to upgrade to meat, i got a cheeseburger last month

If you are in the 44 years living a life that means nothing you did in his youth. I don't have this situation, so even if bitcoin will not I will live a normal life. I'm glad that bitcoin is helping you, but you need to try to change your life or you are very bad will finish it.

Maybe to feed some of the poor but not all of them. We must help poor people by getting them job and work for their own money and not defend on other's help

I've seen this post previously. To be honest i don't think any crypto could help to finish the poverty issues. It would only help during a campaign or similar, the problem is that you don't only need money, also time and effort. A long and intense project.

You are correct mate, crypto could help only to give some profit for the individuals but not the fact, taking out the people into poverty. Unless if the person who get profit into crypto can manage it so well.

Crypto currency is the same currency as usual. It can be allowed to charity for the poor, but after a while it will end and the poor will again need money for the necessary things.

Talking about impact on our society, I have found that there is a very interesting new project, it is an unconditional basic income project called Swift Demand, every single day you receive 100 coins, without any questions or conditions. With altruistic motivations I would like to invite people to join this platform, maybe the coins here have some real value someday and we all get basic income through blockchain: https://www.swiftdemand.com/users/sign_up?referred_by_name=x777

SWISSBORG- THE NEW ERA OF CRYPTO WEALTH MANAGEMENT

Yes it will help them by donations but it will only make them dependant. The government must help them to get job for them to make their own money so that we can teach them to not depend on donations

It was already done indirectly via bitcoin in a form of donations to create wells and food supply in Africa. I heard that from the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, Joe himself donated some bitcoin.

The point is finishing with poverty, which is impossible. They are just giving them some food that will last a short time, then what happens? They are back to the same place.

The ideal solution is to provide everyone with jobs, so that they can earn money themselves. But the problem is that not all of them want to work. They want to survive on the handouts. So this problem will exist forever.

I think everybody wants to work, not everybody can work due to disabilities.
