Cryptocurrency does not offer equal opportunity to the visually impaired.

[Hypnosis00]

Not to wonder anymore as to whether we like it or not, we all can't have an equal opportunity, yet we can't say they are hopeless enough not to have a chance as they can have in the other way. In fact, even those normal people already have a bigger chance but they still neglected it and ignore it. Even though we want but can't imagine how hard is it in their situation knowing that they live uncomfortably makes this thing isn't suitable for them. I think, there is something that is really for them, we don't need to add burden to these visually impaired.

I once made a thread about this here: Bitcoin investment is limited, in my beginner phase on the forum. It was really sad to have come by this limitation to the system but, it seems that's the way it is. Unfortunately, there are many more systems for which they aren't familiar too as per what ever that has got to be displayed on a screen. It doesn't rest all on bitcoin or cryptocurrencies and there isn't a way to cut them in.

That's why, it's necessary that we still ought to have fiat currencies in operation along side cryptos. To eliminate the idea of monopoly to the system and give people the idea of choice. It's It's crypto is about right, freewill. Hence, fiat is a good fill up on crypto limitations.

I suppose you can say the same thing about computers and digital banking system since in terms of usage there is no difference between bitcoin and them.

This, and like 99999 other internet services lol. It was described as if bitcoin/crypto is the only sort of "service" that the visually impaired can't easily use.

As for the solution: get a trusted family member to help you, just like how the visually impaired need a helping hand with a lot of other stuff.

That's probably the best solution for that. Voice command is still not proven fully effective unless there is someone who is willing to assist you on that. But if you look for a reliable family member, you will be at ease because aside that your account is safe, you will also be guided on what to do to increase the profits of your investment. That's the essence of having a trusted family member. Even if you are visually impaired, you can still act as normal because you have another reliable eyesight that can be able to sustain your crypto investment.

Exactly. How many restrictions exist in the world for blind people. But they still agree with it. There are areas where the blind will not feel disadvantaged in any way, and there is nothing to worry about if they cannot use bitcoin. The land will not stop there for them. It's much safer than controlling your voice while someone else can hear and even having an assistant. If bitcoin wallet is called its own bank, then it should remain its own.

It is not every visually impaired individual that is born blind, there are many illnesses that can cause blindness. There are people that have already invested in or is using Bitcoin for financial transaction that might go blind due to sickness. This would be a devastating experience if they don't have the means to access Bitcoin independently. There have to be a means of improving the access and privacy of these disadvantaged people in their quest to use Bitcoin.

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be that much work done in general for visually impaired people.

I see some tried out but in the end died out. This is probably due to lower number of user base of impaired people whom actually wanted to do or try out bitcoin. Those company must be interested but due to lack of funding and interest its not work out.

Im thinking if Government would found this useful and funded it but since some disagree on crypto might be not possible. Surely some deep pocketed people would see this also as not profitable if ever they tried out to support. Well I knew Elon is a self enthusiast when it comes to innovation maybe somehow or someday he could see this situation for some out visually impaired people abd extend some help or support.

The main reason why the visually challenged are not given attention in the Bitcoin space is because no rich or influential supported of Bitcoin is blind. If Micheal Saylor or Barry Silbert becomes visually impaired, funds would be released for research and development for friendly software or hardware for the blind. It is a general practice for the rich to support issues that affects them.

We usually prioritize how keeping our keys safe and personal is crucial for the safety of our coins, but how can the visually impaired keep safe something that they cannot see. The entire thought of it is very disheartening that it may even be discouraging for any of such a person if after managing to agree to be a part of crypto, they now hear that they may never be able to secure their crypto. What can we suggest to these individuals (the visually impaired) who have an interest in bitcoins and crypto so that they don't loose interest?  Have you met any visually impaired individual in crypto, how do they manage to go about with it?

I guess it's very hard to secure and keep safe his investments if the investor alone is visually impaired. Our eyes are our the biggest asset to help us see things clearly so that we can refrain from doing such mistakes. However, if an investor has its own disability, i guess that won't be a total hindrance not to invest and earn crypto. What is the use of our family?  They are there to help us and aid us in everything we want to do and achieve. It only takes a trusted member so we can still pursue our crypto dreams and succeed in it.

You might got a point then prove me rights that there should be money flowing and having client like those whose name you mentioned will technically be given a priority. But thats unfortunate cause we neer to wait for some guys like them to be like that in order to give or serve many a paltform intended for that kidn of circumstances.

Cryptocurrency is not create equal opportunity for even the visual as well. It is only those who are interested are using the currency online to transact goods and services. You private key which is also known as seed phrase is s only meant for the user and it is not good to share with any person, so if some is visually impaired then I don't think person can use bitcoin but if the person is very much interested to use bitcoin, then he or she must has a trusted assistance who will not defraud him or her in any way. Then probably the visually impaired Personel has a good knowledge about bitcoin, in that case the impaired will be telling the assistant what to do for him. The seed phrase of the impaired is not safe at all because the assistance can do and undo.

Since they are using fiat currency for goods and services, they can also use bitcoin from the method used in fiate currency.

Life itself isn't fair. For the disabled, they are already -1 by default and not only in crypto. That is why anyone not disabled must try to him the disabled at anytime. The technology is not left out, almost everything is designed in consideration of the deformed. The screen readers, screen magnifier, text to speech, speech to text are all technologies embedded in our daily life endeavours to assist the disabled.

Even with the availability of these helping tools, the blind should have someone he/she trusts who will always serve as their eyes. This is absolutely necessary.

Being visually impaired may be considered a hindrance for someone who aims to hone his skills in cryptocurrency trading or investing. However, if we can entrust someone to do it for us, someone that is already trusted, I think we can still be successful in crypto. Because the truth is, no one is being deprived from crypto opportunities, all is fair in crypto, it’s just that you have to be good in it for you not to end in failure and lose your money.

Although there may be any ways to come up and to ease them in operating their activities in crypto, I am wondering how to check that the information that they are doing or using is actually true. They may not be able to crosscheck gain whether the wallet address has been true without any mistakes, or the trading pairs or nominal has been true when trading activities. ANd many more activities in the crypto space. Although this may be similar with how they access the internet system so far, in crypto, there may be some different situations, in which they need more details.
In ths case, they will need an asiistance from other peole to be able to assist them and check whether what they are doing is actually true. But, itis the difficulty, they must find the trusted one to do it.
