Do you believe that cryptocurrency will help our country to be globalized?
Hmm, 12 replies and nobody asked the most important question!
What country are we talking about?
Anyhow, no it won't as much as you might want to think!
Bitcoin is a way of transferring money, for globalization you need everything from people to companies to governments to interact with each other.
The EU, for example, has been able to do most of it without bitcoin because the first ingredient was the economy and we had it in place.
For poor countries, no it will not make a difference, even if the government and the people are fans of cryptos, what you need to enter the global economy are products and purchasing power, and that's a hard thing to achieve for.

BTC nothing will change. Do you think that if countries in the sub-saharian region will drop their currencies and switch to

Globalization became a thing because there wasn't a single country towering over another, but rather multiple countries being at equals on different levels. Tbf, only those small countries benefit fully on globalization, since they can advance their country's progress quite faster but it would stay under the jurisdiction of most of the countries supporting it. They'd support those countries, but wouldn't let them exceed their own.
Globalization really started when the few European empires started conquering everything they could grab before somebody else did, and the first phase ended with the British Empire owning 25% of the world and the other few powers...well....the rest.
It wasn't that beneficial for small countries which in most cases were crushed, ripped into pieces and shared between empires.
