This is one of the things that a TON of people overlook when they think that Bitcoin is going to be a huge help to poorer countries. A lot of them simply aren't developed enough for something like Bitcoin to make sense to them, let alone smart contracts. And even then most will likely have a hard enough time understanding computers and phones.

bitcoin can help poor countries in collecting donations. because all what you need is an address and everyone from all over the world can send a donation in a matter of second. it also works fine in remittance because of the low fees comparing with WU
fees are lower with Western Union, but still high in countries that are very poor. some cents seem low to you, but this might be a days work in some poor country. what are you taking about ? remittance money are always sent from developed countries by a family member who wants to support his family. so instead of losing 10% of the money or more as fees for WU, with btc the tx can be sent with less than 2 cents as fees. there is no comparison ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I'll add another flavor to it, "and don't forget that its INSTANT" which is a faster way of sending money to other people. I hope that all people will be educated with bitcoin technologies and cryptocurrency.

In poor countries we can find the people who can use internet but I don't think bitcoin is being use by poor people. For that we need one trusted person who is kind hearted and can help the poor in that country itself who is using Internet.

This is the future, no banks!

Yes definitely. People from poor country could deal with bitcoin such as in bitcointalk and could earn huge and found such they could make money from bitcoin and finally by selling the bitcoin they could get real money. Do indirectly they are helping in boosting the economy of their country.

Yes definitely bitcoin could help poor countries. I am describing in short.
If people of poor country use bitcointalk then they will definitely make some money (btc) and by selling those btc they will get real money so neither they spend anything or there is waste of their country's currency. Still they managed to earn free money. So indirectly they helped their country.

Yeah. That's one of the best features of bitcoin. You can send anywhere you want with low transaction fees and without dealing with so much time.

I assume your are talking about them participating in signature campaigns to earn themselves some bits? What if at some point signature campaigns are not allowed anymore? Can Bitcoin still help these people according to you?

Bitcoin can help those countries which mostly have access to the Internet and very low salaries. In my country an average salary is about 150$ (well, it is actually above average). And for such money you have to work for 6-8 hours 5 days per week. Considering this I must say that working for a signature campaign, for example, you can earn nearly a salary and work a lot less than even 6 hours per day.

I doubt smart contracts or buying land is anything they need to worry about. Their big worry is most likely who ate the family dog before thanksgiving. the only thing that i can see possible be useful for these countries and people in them using bitcoin is charities accepting donations. since sending bitcoin is super cheap compared to sending any other way of sending money, people can make easier and more donations. they can even send a tiny amount because it is possible with bitcoin.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip. Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

Can Bitcoin or any other altcoin help poor countries? how? what can be done?
No it can not. I am very doubt bitcoin or any alternative coin can help a poor country in the financial aspect. Bitcoin and alternative coin only is a currency in online as we can said Cryptocurrency.
