Because most of the internet in third world countries have slow internet. Third world countries are not as developed as the western country so their technology and such are like 10 years behind for us.
you don't need fast connection to enter in the crypto world, i think more toward the fact that they don't even know what crypto is and surely don't know what bitcoin is
in third countries there is a larger ignorance
I wouldn't call that ignorance. I'd say it's more about people in 3rd world countries are most (if not entirely) focused on the basic needs, for that reason they don't have time (and tools) to research and learn about new things.
In order for the BTC to kick off in those countries, they would need to have basic infrastructure starting with reliable BTC/local currency exchanges. Next thing to do is to enable all those (possibly unbanked) freelancers/local artists/farmers/craftsmen etc to sell their goods/services to the 'western' world using Bitcoin as payment system. That's not easy, but there's a huge potential there.
. Time travel to the early 2000's :/. You can get far better internet speeds in Tunisia, Egypt and many other 3rd world countries.
