Will the government understand?

[Xampeuu]

I think many benefit if bitcoin become legal transaction and government give space for bitcoin become legal transaction, will have transparent system payment if using bitcoin and keep away from with corruption if government use bitcoin as their payment in every sector.

It can lessen corruption only if the government that will govern the use are honest, but to those that still have many corrupt officials there are
still capabilities that they can launder money out from this system, corrupt people will always find ways.

by its anonymous nature it does make cryptocurrency as a reference for money laundering. especially for countries with high levels of corruption, which will certainly make the government vigilant. and indeed money laundering is the main reason for not legalizing crypto at this time, in some countries

I do know that people engaged in cryptocurrencies are way ahead of the time, so do you guys think there is a way by which jobs can be provided to the needy because we all know that a vaccine is 12-18 months away .

I like how you said it, people engaged in crypto are way ahead of the time! This is true, we understand how crypto works, we understand how fiat works, we use both, and we know to make a difference between those two systems. Ordinary people don't know who print money, how money is being made and distribute, how can we expect from them to understand crypto when they don't understand fiat, fiat they use every day!

Crypto jobs! There is a job for everyone here in crypto, depending on your knowledge and skills that much you can earn, sky is the limit! Even for people who don't know much, they can click faucets, PTC sites and many other things! Point is that you can earn in crypto, more or less depends on you!
But, there is always some but, I have a friend who is in a big problem now! I am telling him for years that needs to start with crypto, but he doesn't have time to earn little and to learn more, so he can earn more, he want to earn a lot, and he wants that now! I'm afraid that many people think the same, they don't wish to make some effort and learn something, they just wish to earn a lot! But we here know that things don't work like that.

The poor should be able to go alone to farms for example, or go with few people (in recommended social distancing/spacing way). It's not a good idea to rely on people (who can turn evil) to keep you safe and well fed.  
Don't rely too much on internet just incase they start using it for evil. Use the physical space in the recommended safe way.
If a President or Leader finds a truely safe way to keep people working in physical space, people who don't think it's a good idea should prove him wrong or let others work in his recommended safe way.

Many countries in the world are suffering a very bad crisis because of the pandemic virus called COVID-19.  The World Health Organization (WHO) are helping to the other countries that doesn’t have the ability to accommodate their scope. So that if the economy of one’s country doesn’t have the ability to sustain their needs the WHO are ready to help them. All the countries are helping each other to survived the economy because of the pandemic virus. The solution that we do is to pray that the pandemic virus will cured and pray to keep ourselves healthy.

we literally can't avoid human factor with any level of clarity of the system whether its fiat or blockchain.
we have to educate people what is it like to care about other people around them before anything changes

It's not only a matter of government but also social responsibility. Nowadays we act as a strong hand so that we beat this deadly virus.

It's not only a matter of government but also social responsibility. Nowadays we act as a strong hand so that we beat this deadly virus.

nice said  . this words are familiar to me  i think i read it somewhere on social media and there are post about unity  while other posts are direcrly blaiming the government. why will you blame the government when infact they already play thier role ?

if people will stop complaining for once and will use those efforts to shut thier mouth , that can avoid the comunity became toxic . its not helping on this situation but we all now need is peace and unity and we can easily bust this virus .

[TheGreatPython]

I don’t think there is any other job you can give to people now apart from online jobs. Lots of companies that ordered their employees to stop coming to work, also ordered those whose roles in the office is possible to be worked online to continue working from their home.

There are some people who have now started searching for freelance jobs and when you visit these sites the competition is going to be very now because there will be lots of people there who are looking for jobs. The only things you can do with Bitcoin is to either invest your money, do micro tasks or signature campaign if you need something that pays reasonably, but all these requires a lot of work.

[panganib999]

They do and that's why they are trying to give out whatever help they can, and they hope that the people would understand the reasons for the lockdowns and quarantines currently understanding. It isn't a matter of money IMO, there are millions of people in a country and if the government were to fund each and every one of them, it would take an astronomic amount. Not to mention the funds they would need to spend on supplies, as well as possibly researching regarding the virus.

Any kind of help for them is nearly dead at the moment. Not to mention them, even us who are relatively well aren't able to help for the long term. Sure, we can try to give out food and supplies to them, but that would only be a temporary approach. The fundamental problem wouldn't really be solved.

True, the government is trying to save us, they give what they can give but I feel sad for those people who are not able to get foods or supplies until now. I know it is hard to know or to think what will be the future is after a couple of months being quarantined or lockdown in the house without job and income. But all I know that the government has already made up a plan for that, we have to trust them. We have funds, let's just listen to government's advisories about the virus so that we are updated. Also, there is a lot of people who do fundraising to help the poor people to give them enough food to survive. In times like this, we should stay at home, keep our self healthy and safe. Don't disobey governments' rules because this is for our safety and to reduce the number of cases. Hoping that in a few months this crisis will end soon.

[TIDOVEE]

This challenge is the challenge of the whole world and I don't think 2-3 weeks of break Should so much affect the economy. Only for China that had a major loss. this should be understood to safe lives and economy will be restored when the economists are alive.  In fact there are certain ways it is of advantage to the global world. When the cloud will be at rest of co2 and many dangerous fumes.

[Blackdeath]

With the society collapsing , I fear for a common man , I fear for the families who were already living on the edge and now without any jobs , without any money , they are surviving on the brink .
Yes the government is distributing food for the poor , they are doing whatever they can , but it is not enough .
Just like , we are able to transfer our education system , all online in a matter of days , why are they not doing the same for most of the offices ?
Even at the time of the crisis , corruption still can be seen , when a country which is considered the most powerful , the US , when the people cannot trust the president itself , who can they trust at that time ?

I do know that people engaged in cryptocurrencies are way ahead of the time, so do you guys think there is a way by which jobs can be provided to the needy because we all know that a vaccine is 12-18 months away .

Things will take a lot of time to be normal , till then how will the economy survive?

Indeed. Not only the government is trying to help the poor people that there are also some people who has an ability to help other people, but it is really not enough to help everyone who needs help. We should be really put a lot of trust to every fronliners or doctors to solve the cure the virus.

[Wintersoldier]

There are really a lot of people are now suffering because they don't have any jobs, so they could earn money and to feed their families. Governments and their citizens are also having huge conflicts with each other because they don't receive enough help from them that every country's economy is starting to fall down because of these virus.

[Shasha80]

The government cannot only provide the poor with food, what the poor need most is actually income. Especially with the current crisis,
which requires everyone to be at home. The government should understand that only bitcoin can become the solution to this problem.
With the government legalizing bitcoin and providing online education about bitcoin to all its residents can overcome financial problems.
Because with bitcoin people can make money from home.

[dothebeats]

Research laboratories are turning to a couple of medical concoctions that may not work as effective as vaccines, but can easily repel the virus' exploitation of the common entry points within the human cell. So far, a few laboratories already offered promising results, with more and more concoctions being added in the mix of drugs that can be used to help our fight against the virus with or without vaccines.

Going back to the topic, I think most governments would be open with the fact that their citizens would be accepting gigs that involve cryptocurencies as long as it will help them keep within their homes. It might fall under informal economies that cannot be taxed by the government, but everyone else around the world is scrambling to get their stomachs fed, and help from the government wouldn't be sufficient if the spread of the virus continues and economy sits at a stand-still. Resource allocation at this point in time should be focused on the poorest of the poor, and those who can work from the comfort of their homes should continue to work--be it paid by fiat or cryptocurrencies--to lessen the weight of the governments during these tough times.

[FlightyPouch]

Depend with who become government, maybe if your country have governor and president understand about currency and know with bitcoin or altcoin, one day they will allow using bitcoin as legal payment transaction and give access to every one to buy and invest with bitcoin or altcoin.

Despite the country banning bitcoin or other crypto currencies in your country, you can still buy or invest in bitcoin. What I am saying here is that despite the legalization of the government about it, they will not be pushing everyone to invest or buy it since it is decentralized, that might affect the reputation of that person. In these times, every person is a critic.

[Meowth05]

I think that this is very hard thing to address, the least possible that could help right now would be a financial stimulation but that would not be enough because they sustenance, I think the better solution would be to give items that helps prevent the contraction of virus to workers that will continue.

[tbterryboy]

We will survive this, corona is deadly but lets not act like it will kill everyone in the whole world. It is one of the worst virus outbreaks in the recent memory, only worse ones are the century old or even older, we haven't had something like this in a long while so it is scaring a lot of people and I can understand why.

However lets be realistic, it will probably kill maximum of half a million people, is that bad? It is horrible, it is a tragedy, it is incredibly sad. But is that end of the world? It is not, we have 8 billion people, half a million means 7 billion 999 million 500 thousand still alive, we are seriously too crowded in the world right now, it can't really hurt all that many people. Know the difference between too many people dying and world ending amount of people dying.

Countries have reserves to support their population. Here is an example of them:
https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/world/russias-putin-orders-month-of-non-work-to-curb-coronavirus/ar-BB125P3P

But I am concerned as you are that not all countries have the capacity to support their population.
The Venezuelan government granted bonuses for each worker, who updates their employment status through the Patria platform valued at $5 for each worker. https://www.patria.org.ve/

It has also offered boxes of food for 7 million families
https://www.notitarde.com/rodriguez-anuncio-distribuyeron-2millones-de-clap/
It is not a perfect measurement but it is worse than nothing. I hope that the help reaches the neediest.

Please, also share how your country's government is helping in the Covid19 pandemic.

[Subbir]

Many are helping within the Covid19 pandemic in our country aside from the govt the rich have come to the fore to assist the poor they need to be been asked to remain home for his or her own safety and are distributing relief reception. There are many paid working people that are ordered to pay albeit they're not working the govt is seriously helping us deal with the Covid19 pandemic.

[hahay]

The government understands that and I just believe they can work well and I, as a society that does not have much knowledge to overcome problems like this, will at least just wait and be patient. Well I know, just waiting and being patient will not be enough but, when the government has made great efforts to break the spread of this pandemic at least we also have to do or implement or obey the rules consistently because with good cooperation the rules with great effort will work well and at least the effects that occur will be seen quickly. There is no way that can be done quickly to end this crisis because the most important thing right now is to cut off the spread of the virus immediately, because then the crisis will definitely end too and the economy will spin as it should.
