How to improve the stability of lives through BTC or others in Rural Areas!

[Israelgogo]

Most communities in suburb or rural environment are lacking means of investment or business idea, I remember one of my Journeys to Igila and idumoga ancient remote areas of Idoma land Benue state Nigeria were we go for out reach and I was engaging in a conversation with most of the youths but them seem not to be inclined to my saying concerning modern online Businesses or trading platforms like BTC, freelancing and all, it was so boring and I was thinking there is something one can do to add values to this remote communities that lack completely ideas of new era life.
I came up this following points of improving the stability of BTC and other online businesses at the remotes areas.

1. They should be a local school of thoughts and change world at the areas.
2. They should be at least local antennas network channel to help this people access Internet and communication
3. They should be a shared ideas between people at the urban, town or cities areas with local family on modern business
4. They should be encourage to learn a skills or technical know how
5. Instead of send them money for feed always, think of investing for them and show them how is done when opportune.
6. Make them see that anywhere anyone is, your can make money with smart phones, tablets and PC.

trading platforms like BTC

Bitcoin is not a trading platform.

I came up this following points of improving the stability of BTC and other online businesses at the remotes areas.

Bitcoin is global and is going mainstream, what's happening in remote areas won't affect Bitcoin stability. Don't care about it, but it's good if you can do something to expand Bitcoin adoption in more areas including remote areas.

My thinking is startup business can destroy lives of many bussiness entrepreneurs.
Trading Bitcoin from Spot to Margin or Futures trading types can destroy finance of many people.

Investment in Bitcoin can help, but only if you buy and store your bitcoin safely and by this, I emphasize, don't store your bitcoin on centralized, online platforms.

Reminder: do not keep your money in online accounts

[Ziskinberg]

Bitcoin as an investment won’t solve their problem because their main issue is unemployment. They need to find a job first to address that.

Although Bitcoin is considered one of the best investments, we shouldn’t assume it will always be profitable, especially if we’re not in it for the long term. If you don’t have extra savings to invest, it’s better not to force it, you’ll just get bored waiting and might eventually panic.

Here’s what they need to do:

1. Find a job.
2. Save money.
3. Invest in Bitcoin.

understanding how bitcoin works for people in that kind of environment will appear too technical for them because of there lack of exposure to foundational technological knowledge. there is a level  of knowledge that is needed to consider some form of investment and for people in a very rural part of the world, it is quite understandable that their investment choice will be more centered on what they have been used to.

talk investment to someone that all his life has been centered around farming, fishing or one agricultural niche or the other, his exposure would not allow him try any form of investment he is not familiar with. digital divide is what ought to first be treated before introducing them to bitcoin investment. it might surprise you that some of them don't know how the banking system works and if that is so, how then can they understand bitcoin? if you try to persuade them by all means, it will only suggest that are trying to scam them. people in rural area need exposition to basic social amenities like you have pointed out and from that point they can now grow into knowing about bitcoin and make the choice of investing in it or not.

Don't rely to much on it since there's nothing instant or passive especially when you are new. Better find regular job or alternative source of income so that you will never get broke if unfavorable situation occurs.

Getting decent or realistic profit with Bitcoin takes a lot of time and if you think you can passively earn money for trading Bitcoin then I'm afraid that what you expect might not came knowing how volatile the price of Bitcoin and there would be unexpected situation that might result to lose everything you have. So settle your expectation and better make Bitcoin as alternative option when you find good asset to invest.

That’s good ideas of course but what can you do to actually make this happen? Posting this here may generate some attention. Maybe posting it in your local board, even more so.

Actually I am sure there are organizations already in place for helping people in rural areas. Bringing education and innovation into these areas. I think the very foundation of bringing these communities up is education and that requires time, effort and most importantly financial support.

Investment is done when all basic needs are met. Instead of saving money in a bank or elsewhere, it is better if the money saved is invested in Bitcoin investment.
I thank you for sharing your thoughts with people around you about Bitcoin investment which is indeed important for those who want to do it. Directly in a short time to convince them will have difficulty. At least with the smartphones they hold, they are willing to read all things related to Bitcoin investment.

[Despairo]

The irony is you need to have money in order to make money from Bitcoin.

Since this is in rural areas, where it lacks of facilities, it means you need to spend more because you might live in an areas that lack of internet connection, it will make you need to move to a place that give good connection or you buy more expensive internet package.

Usually in rural areas there will be a lot gossip when you only stay at home, but you can buy expensive things. They might envy with your achievement and disturb you, which encourage you to make money through BTC.

[Agbe]

I thought by now all the local communities in Nigeria have Internet connection though some communities have very poor Internet connection and that affects their participation in most of the online activities. And I believed before you went their other crypto enthusiast has been to those places and told them about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies so they knew it. And the only challenge they might face is the finance. In those areas even though they have the knowledge about cryptocurrency, there is no capital to start the investment so if you tell them and educate them they still need funds to start the investment.

i have travelled the world and visited africa a few times in different regions. and some remote villages always seem the same.
after talking with a few remote villagers, they tell me this:

we have had many clean white men visit us, offering opportunity online to earn an income. but at the end of the pitch they do not offer the advice, the task, the training, instead they ask for the money upfront needed to start up.

..
many villagers have been scammed over the last decade by ICO scammers, premine-altcoiners, subnetwork(LN) salesmen..  and even some bitcoiners that pretend to be some investment portfolio manager. .. they had enough of it
for centuries african families have many tales of how outsiders come into town and offer their ancestors dreams of fortunes but make demands of payment upfront first, even the whole voodoo and black magic are known scams their ancestors taught them to avoid

they are sceptical of anyone making wealth promises but then put hand out not to give, but to take. a quote i remember
'if the clean white man so truly wealthy from is scheme, why does he need my money, doesnt he already have his own'

it takes a while to teach them about what bitcoin actually is and the difference between what bitcoin is vs the scammers that abuse people via bitcoin

many have settled on the idea that many international charities do and would provide them with shelter, wells, and food when job opportunities are lacking. and no one should be asking a villager for anything upfront. they dont even think that starting a local business is a possibility because international charities provide so much that no one has an ability to compete by offering a product or service for payment, to even start getting an income. so they just accept the free handouts and their economic mindset is 'be given to us first, before we give back'

Education is important for anyone to engage in any form of crypto investment or online job. Hence, rural areas should have quality schools to teach children how to read, write, and understand basic concepts. I also agree that rural dwellers should have access to basic amenities like electricity and internet connection so that they can tap into the opportunities that the digital world offers. I frown at people mostly politicians who always distribute food items and money to the poor people in rural areas. Rather, they should organise training sections where young rural dwellers will learn viable skills that will enable them to be useful to themselves and the society at large.

Op, as someone who's also very passionate about Bitcoin since I learnt of it and is very interested in any program that'll help us spread the knowledge of Bitcoin to everyone, I totally understand your point of trying to teach people of the local regions about Bitcoin and investing in Bitcoin however, you must know that their level of exposure will make it extremely difficult for them to accept these teachings. You pointed out absence of a lot of basic amenities which includes lack of internet connections so I think it's more important to call for a governmental intervention in the locality so they can at least know a little about modern technological innovations before you can introduce Bitcoin to them.

That said, I also think this post would've made more sense in Nigerian local board where members are more familiar with the region you described so they can easily relate to the subject matter and offer nice opinions that'll proffer solutions to the issues raised.

Assuming those in the remote areas have all these mentioned points. Don't you think there will be trust issues between you and them because they can't trust a stranger who they don't know about investing in volatile assets that they can't control?

It's like you don't know there are more illiterate people than those educated in the village. Only a few can understand Bitcoin investments; the rest can't understand Bitcoin investments no matter how hard you try to convince them because of their financial illiteracy. You don't force or try to convince such a person when already they have limited knowledge about crypto investment

A large number of people who reside in rural areas in developing nations are poor. It would be a wrong approach to introduce such people to Bitcoin because they might not have the financial backing to trade or hodl. The first step should be to introduce them to skills or avenues to gain income. Secondly, they need to be taught how and why they should save some portion of their income. Now they can be introduced to Bitcoin as a type of investment. Some of them might show interest in buying and hodling Bitcoin as an asset for a long time.

[Questat]

The only way to make people’s lives better and comfortable is to look for a real job. Don’t advise them to learn about online businesses or trading with bitcoin because that will only useless if they don’t have sufficient funds to sustain their investment or businesses, or their trading activities. Instead, encourage them to develop their skills and find a job that will suit their talents and skills. And when they have saved good amount, that’s the time they will start learning in trading or investing.

I can't understand how Bitcoin can help these people in isolation. These people can't improve their circumstances just by storing some Bitcoin because you have to think about the factors and circumstances that can benefit from Bitcoin. There are very poor areas where people can't meet the most basic daily needs but they are subject to government regulations that won't allow them to use Bitcoin easily.

Yes, financial support is the main thing they experience because it is different from living in a city where you can easily earn money by working or whatever. And introducing skills to them or improving the skills they already have to be able to earn money, and that is a very good way. Because to be able to get involved with Bitcoin they need to trade or buy it periodically according to their ability and save it for the long term, and after they have income we can introduce Bitcoin to them and buy it after they prioritize their important needs.

And I agree with you that more towards long-term investment is a good choice, because trading does require sufficient experience and also sufficient knowledge to be able to become a profitable trader. And what must be known is that their intelligence must be limited because I think trading is not the right choice for those who live in rural areas.

In remote areas where there is no proper system of online services or there is a small scale, it is necessary to develop all those places. I think they need financial development first. Even if a subject like Bitcoin is taught there, they will not be able to retain that education because they are burdened with financial costs. First, it is necessary to provide employment in those places. After employment is created, they will be able to save money. Only those who have money will be eligible to invest in Bitcoin. No matter how good advice I give them, if they do not have money, they will not be able to invest. That is why they have to earn money first and when they are able to live a normal life. They can choose any investment platform to increase their money to be profitable.

However, I welcome such a bold initiative of yours. If the awareness of Bitcoin can be increased among the people of remote areas, they will definitely be ahead in knowing about Bitcoin compared to others. If they can afford to hold an investment platform like Bitcoin for the long term, they will certainly be able to improve their financial situation.

[Frankolala]

If the people in the remote areas don't have internet access and andriod phones, because of the low standard of living, how do you expect them to have money and invest into bitcoin. Trading is the worst because it's very complex and risky for these set of people who has zero knowledge and very low income. Let them exploit from their environment by farming and learning skills to improve their lives.

Another good point you got there. Apart from the lack of internet which I think is too basic to be lacking, their financial strength like you said is another factor that'll limit their interest in Bitcoin if you take the teachings to these areas. Like you said, it's also very much important to try create skills that'll help improve their earnings thereby equipping them financially so those who would develop interest when Bitcoin is introduced can as well have the basic finance to invest by trading or holding. Bitcoin is one of the greatest financial innovations in the history of global finance system and taking the knowledge to every corners of the universe I think is our collective responsibilities.
