For those who want to know how is the bitcoin and crypto currencies developing on Cuba check this video:

The Truth Behind Cuba's Bitcoin Revolution | What it Really Looks Like



They explain a little the devaluation of the Cuban Peso.

There is a funny part where they said (Some cuban) "Atomic Engineers can make 100$ USD a month"

That is something odd, there are people here in the forum making that amount per week every week, and they only need to post messages as hobby.

@CryptoDeivid try to post more messages to be able to join to a signature campaign.

so here my monthly salary is about 3,500 Cuban pesos, which is equivalent to 12 dollars approximately,

Seems like you miss calculate the conversion of Cuban Peso to USD, according to google, 3500 is not $12, its around $146,




I work as a doctor or I used to,

Eventho I still think that salary is still quite low for a doctor, but $146 would still be enough to survive, but $12 is just not humane. Because you already has experience as doctor, I think the best option could be pursue your career as doctor, and save some money to get better degree and certification as medical specialist. Since you ask this question this forum so I assume you already know about crypto and Bitcoin, you could spare some of your salary to buy Bitcoin.

I repeat once again, I already explained it in the post to another person, my country does not work in sync with the entire world, that conversion that Google shows you is not the real one that the banks in my country offer you, in fact a Cuban does not You can go to the bank and buy dollars because they tell you that they don't have USD to give you, it's that simple, then you are forced to buy USD from people who have it here in the country because their relatives send them to sell them, not to as it appears on Google, but at a price multiplied by 10 or 20, currently 1usd is equivalent to 250cup in ''our market'' which is far from the reality shown on the internet.

In Cuba we eat rice with a vegetable if it appears, many eat rice alone or with a meal, nothing else because protein is very very expensive, seafood does not exist (despite the fact that my country is surrounded by water) we do not have fish, I have almost forgetting the taste, a kilogram of rice costs 400 to 500cup, how do you think I can save those 3500cup per month when the money disappears in a matter of days just to be able to buy some food and survive.

That's bad advice, considering the OP is a doctor the recommendation should be rather good. Cheesy
I know if become a doctor isn't easy, but this is why you need to lower your prestige if you want to survive. You can't expect after you complete your degree, you will work in a big company that use full English, there's nothing wrong to accept a small company that pay with minimum wage because you can use that advantage as stepping stone.

At least he can earn some pennies in bounty to support his financial.

I will briefly explain something about my country regarding this: the economy is a total failure, doctors do not have basic supplies to work in addition to the very low salary, so no one wants to work for the government, therefore the country is in a moment in which it does not have enough doctors and therefore the Cuban state has restricted all medical categories and specialties with a resolution that regulates their departure, prohibiting them from leaving the country to keep them trapped here and they necessarily have to work. That's what I mean, there are other Cubans who have left the country, yes, illegally, on boats, putting their lives at risk by sea since Cuba is an island, the sea is the only means of escape, the Cubans who leave It is because they have studied any other career or do not belong to the Cuban health system and many of them have relatives in other countries who lend them money to fill out all the paperwork in the relevant embassies (paying people, corruption) to validate their documents and go through 3rd countries and/or crossing borders.

I am sure that with your profession you could very easily find a well-paid job in another country, but the question is actually how badly you want to change something in your life in order to take some possibly very risky steps. If you believe that the situation will not get any better in the near future, I wonder what else is left for you except to leave the country in any way, or be persistent and try to earn something online.

I found one of your countrymen who asked about similar things a few years ago, so even though he is not active on the forum, you can send him a message and maybe he will receive a notification by e-mail - azkielt. In any case, someone who already has experience might be able to help you and point you in the right direction.

Has someone already suggested to you that you can offer some of your services that will be paid in BTC - if you are good at something, you can offer it here -> Services

No, friend, in my country that doesn't work like that, that would be normal in other countries, here those activities are not done nor are they monetized if you did them either.
It looks like you (and I don't mean you personally but all people there) are going to have to change your own country. You live on a beautiful tropical island, there's no need to be poor. I know it's easier said than done, but you (again: plural) are going to have to fight for your country. All countries are fought for in the past.

This would be the ideal, but being pragmatic, what can he do, alone, to change the situation of the country? It seems much easier to migrate to another country (and, afaik, it is much easier to say it than to do it, as Cuban citizens have very restricted their right to travel, not to talk about the impossibility in many cases to pay the price of the flight).

Long time ago I talked here in my country with a Cuban, who was a doctor too, about the "brain drain". He corrected me, it is not a brain drain but a "foot drain". Not only people with studies like CryptoDeivid, but most people would like to escape the regime. Fighting it instead is dangerous.

12 dollars to 60 dollars is a lot more, if you can earn more than 60 dollars per month in the venture you have taken up then you leave the 12 dollar job without a second thought. If you are thinking of investing then you have to do it for long term as short term investment does not show much profit. If you have some amount of money now I would suggest you to get enough understanding about spot trading. As you gain knowledge about trading, you will want to put those concepts into practice and when your trading education and skills grow enough, you can fully take up trading as your career. If you start trading with $100 it will not be difficult to earn two dollars every day from there.

Youtube or tiktok videos can get you more than that if you know how to attract viewers

You don't get the point that most Commercial activities from others countries are banned in cuba right?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_embargo_against_Cuba

The point is that he can't monetize that kind of content just because no bank is enabled to do that kind of business in Cuba.

My recommendation for OP is that once he is able to receive some coins in any cryptocurrency, he may teach others to receive and send those coins just to encourage local commerce without intermediates.

When you struggle to get 2 USD or even 1 USD per day Bitcoin becomes an expensive coin on matter of fees if you try to use it for Daily basic expenses.

for example: right now there is 3sat/vB



When you are trying to save money even those fees may kill your savings, So my recommendations is maybe get payments in some stablecoin and when OP have the opportunity to save some for long time then choose bitcoin for that

I remember one member who was also from Cuba a few years ago and had similar questions as the OP, and he wrote that the internet in Cuba is very expensive and not available everywhere. According to some information I read, the situation has improved a bit, but I wonder how the OP gets the internet, or whether $2 a day would be enough to cover those costs?

If you do this, you can buy tarjeta Nauta internet, a Nauta Internet scratch card, from numerous shops or even doorways around Cuba.

Many private persons are certified to sell these cards, and they cost 50 CUP (€1,8 or US $1,94) for four hours of browsing online.

There are Etecsa stores in every city and village in Cuba. Etecsa is the governmental telephone and internet provider in Cuba, which has a monopoly on both services on the island. The price of the 1-hour card is €1/CUP 125, and the 5-hour card is €5/CUP 625 for surfing time.

That's interesting (and off-topic) but this probably is the thing that they tell you on many podcasts about bitcoin. That bitcoin's price has a potential many people fail to recognize and that potential lies in countries where internet is hard to access, expensive, or literally inaccessible, unless via a mobile phone, which can be painful to use.

If you're looking for $2 a day, you could try translating texts to spanish, or teaching courses online. Youtube or tiktok videos can get you more than that if you know how to attract viewers. A signature campaign can easily (even for a full member) get you $2 a day. I feel like you could make $2 a day collecting scrap, or sweeping the streets.
Try washing cars, buy a wet vacuum cleaner, or a pressure washer and wash cars. You can easily make some money this way.

No, friend, in my country that doesn't work like that, that would be normal in other countries, here those activities are not done nor are they monetized if you did them either.

Hello, I live in Cuba and I am 28 years old, a few days ago I made a post asking for advice on cloud mining, I see that it is a scam no matter how you look at it, so here my monthly salary is about 3,500 Cuban pesos, which is equivalent to 12 dollars approximately, therefore I would like someone to please advise me on a page where I could work without investments, such as a faucet that is worth it or something that allows me to generate $2 a day because per month it would be almost $60 and as you can see that exceeds by far my salary in my country and it would help me a lot. THANKS FROM THE HEART TO EVERYONE WHO HAVE RESPONDED TO ME PREVIOUSLY

Honestly, the salary you receive per month is very small when compared to what my country gives to workers. with the equivalent of $12 you can meet your daily needs?

You are lucky to be able to join this forum because there are many BTC paid campaigns that can pay you around $ 1 just for each post you make. You must be able to focus on making your account's reputation good, never commit plagiarism or make spam posts. As for cloud mining, it's currently not profitable at all, it's better if you just leave it, focus on what's real.

There would be a better option for you is the signature campaigns that are happening on bitcoinTalk, for which you have to learn from the users who have up ranks like I can say Legendary. Just follow them and see their interaction and how they post and first of all read the forum rules to get more knowledge about the bitcoinTalk Forum. As it is necessary before you start your journey a this forum. Also, that will give you more than 100$ per week but for which you have to work hard and you have to make better posts and the posts should be quality. Spamming or other things can't give you merit, so you have to earn merit and work for it with your heart. I hope you will see after some time your rank up and you will easily join the signature campaign that will pay you even Weekly or some of them that pay after the end of their bounty Programs.
I don't even think trading would be a better solution for you at this stage and this salary.

It's not that I don't have the desire to work, if that were the case I wouldn't be here, of course there is some desperation, it is overwhelming to live this way where at only 28 years old you live in a country where you have no future because every year it gets worse and There is no improvement and you cannot leave either, it is a prison shaped like an island. If I am open to trying everything, I have already been doing it, but there are many obstacles that we have from Cuba when browsing the internet, it is very limited. Even so, I continue reading them and trying every method they give me.


What do you mean you can't leave? Then how did all those other Cubans leave and today live all over the world? If you really want to change something, then it's hard to achieve it this way, because if the situation in your country is so bad, the only way out is to move somewhere else.

I live in Europe, and since my country became a member of the EU, at least half a million people have left the country in search of a better life. The one who wants to do something always finds a way.

I will briefly explain something about my country regarding this: the economy is a total failure, doctors do not have basic supplies to work in addition to the very low salary, so no one wants to work for the government, therefore the country is in a moment in which it does not have enough doctors and therefore the Cuban state has restricted all medical categories and specialties with a resolution that regulates their departure, prohibiting them from leaving the country to keep them trapped here and they necessarily have to work.

pages like Fiverr, Workana, Upwork I just opened right now but They are not accessible in my country, they are blocked for Cuba
Could that be because of sanctions? Or because of this:
Excuse my English, I am relying on a translator so that you can understand me as best as possible.
I was looking for pages where I could offer ~ translation services
Nobody is looking for a remote translater who uses machine translation.

If it would be easy, many companies would hire cheap remote workers. If that would happen, rates would go up. You're basically competing with cheap remote workers in much easier countries.

If you're interested in working online from any reputable organization that can pay you, then you don't have to set a limit to the amount you must be paid per day, there are many online jobs you can work to earn more or less base on their requirements, but you need to first talked much about yourself on what you have that is employable, you need to learn something and have something to render as service for them to pay you for, what are your skills that can make you employable.

The first thing I can sense from your request is that you are desperate at this point and its leading you to a great mistake if you're not careful, and from your tone of request, you don't sound vibrant and exposed. I surely reflects laziness and I encourage you not to be lazy in thinking and acting. You're looking for a revenue generating model without investment. I'll correct you my dear, there is no such thing as something for nothing, you must be ready to sacrifice something special to achieve success. Those faucets might end up disappointing you in the long run and you would've lost valuable time engaging in them and increase your frustration. I will advise you to learn a skill instead and consider freelancing with maybe Upwork, Fiver or others. You can upskill in possibly copywriting, which you can do with just your phone. Graciously, there are some free good trainings on YouTube that can get you started. Give yourself four to six months of consistent learning and you're good and earning some cool cash in it while engaging in forum activities and ranking up until you are set for signature campaigns as a side hustle. You will succeed, that I know, but you need to work harder and smarter.

A few days ago I was looking for pages where I could offer 3D graphic design or translation services, logo design or styles or images that could later be used in other products such as clothing, but pages like Fiverr, Workana, Upwork I just opened right now but They are not accessible in my country, they are blocked for Cuba, many of the pages that you have suggested do not open to me, only with VPN, but it is impossible to use them because the connection becomes even slower. It's not that I don't have the desire to work, if that were the case I wouldn't be here, of course there is some desperation, it is overwhelming to live this way where at only 28 years old you live in a country where you have no future because every year it gets worse and There is no improvement and you cannot leave either, it is a prison shaped like an island.
