The Internet community supported the initiative to help Venezuelan refugees by donating from 10 to 100 dollars in Bitcoin Cash cryptocurrency
Due to economic problems at home, half a million Venezuelans fled to Colombia and this is only according to official data. The Colombian authorities were forced to close the border because they could not cope with the number of refugees. It is expected that refugees will then head to Brazil and America in search of international assistance.
And while states are thinking about who and how to help, a discussion has appeared on the Internet “can Bitcoin Cash save Venezuelans.” From a simple discussion, concerned people spontaneously, without any central direction, collected cryptocurrency donations to feed hungry Venezuelan children.
Bitcoin Cash is just as easily converted into rice, meat and fruits as dollars. Now people have public money and they can feed hungry children without even crossing the border. In addition, neither banks nor states can prohibit such transfers of virtual currency.
Maybe not many people in Venezuela accept cryptocurrency, but many will remember how cryptocurrency came to their aid, how strangers from all over the world did not abandon them in difficult times, because everyone who finds themselves in such a difficult situation would like to be touched by the kindness of strangers.
