Through LocalBitcoins pretty much every country in the world is covered.
There are some problematic territories, like Somaliland, South Ossetia, Abkhazia and similar where it may not be possible to make such exchanges.

No. Not LocalBitcoins. It needs to be a real time exchange like BTC-e/Bitstamp or bitcoin shop like Circle/bitonic.nl/bittylicious accepting that local currency.

probably most of the under-developed countries don't have an exchange for their currency.

Reverse the question, answer will be easier. Most countries do not have any BTC exchange.

I think neither Serbia not Bosnia have their own exchanges. There is a small one in Croatia and Bitstamp in Slovenia. However, all these are tiny markets, I m sure it s not profitable to run exchanges there.

I dont think so. As most of the top exchanges accept EUR, most of the countries in Europe gets covered thereby. Probably some Asian & African nations do not have exchange for their currencies...

I can't think of many countries that do not have their own exchange, but basically any exchange is OK since BTC is universal.. as long as there is internet. So North Korea is out of the equation...

Any exchange in Belarus, Macedonia, Montenegro, Georgia, Moldova, Armenia? I'd say most African countries don't have any exchange, then, there's Asia.

I think those countries (the African ones) need remittance companies most. They act as a kind of exchange, actually. But I agree that Africa seems to be a huge (mostly) untapped potential market.

African nations first need to be educated enough to use the internet/smart phone in general. Bitcoin comes later...

North Korea for sure.
Also all those small countries that no one remembers, like Nepal or Mongolia.
And of course countries where BTC is forbidden, like Ecuador

Mongolia does not have a BTC exchange ? Really ? I heard FriedCat set up a mining firm over there. So, I guess they have some local buyer so that mining firm bills could be paid in local currency.

YOu would be amazed but most of central asia countries do not have dedicated bitcoin exchange market, countries like Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan. Bitcoin is legally banned in Russia so they can't have official bitcoin exchange as well...

Centralized exchanges are dangerous, localbitcoins is the way forward. In certain countries, you can even use 3rd party mobile payment to trade with private people on localbitcoins and have instant delivery, much faster than an exchange which takes days to deposit. And once you know how to use localbitcoins, you can use it in any country. However, they should change to multisig to increase their security, they have also been hacked before

The interesting thing is there are now alternatives of LocalBitcoins as well. These are www.BitQuick.co & www.100bit.co.in. Though it seems BitQuick.co is US only and have a few division elsewhere, 100bit.co.in is a truly global platform for direct traders.
