The reason BTC /crypto for me as a person living in a third world is a miracle

Well, hello there! I just needed to get this out here.

​

I live in Iran; no, we don't hate other countries or USA, nor do we ride a magic carpet; mostly, I see people associate with any individual resident, such as myself, that lives in a sanctioned country for illegal trade. We do not; we are people living our lives just like you, but the government is making it harder every day for us to do so.

​

So why BTC/crypto for me? Because every single form of global payment is prohibited, we can not buy from global shops or even have global credit cards. Why? Cause our government is a global dick, but the people "regular people" that have gotten nothing to do with the decisions are screwed over the cause of it. Any form of crypto fixes this for us.

​

the other reason is the economic hostage that our government does;
gov: we don't like you? Your entire family's accounts are now blocked.
They already do this; an example, you cannot send money to anyone for more than250$, and even if you want to withdraw your own money for more than 2500$, you have to have a valid written reason, such as I'm buying a house or a car or...and convince the bank to let you withdraw. BTC fixes this for me

​

I'm a respected engineer at a well-known firm with a high salary in my country. Guess the salary amount?
it's 7500$ annually. yes, people are living here that take care of their families of 4 with 300$ annually

I tried my very best to buy every sat I could (not a maximized btw I do have another crypto), and I gathered myself a whole BTC pretty proud of that tbh but hey, even if BTC reaches 1m$ I won't be rich in any other country other than that you scare me of BTC price volatility? Please don't make me laugh. Our global currency has 30-50% MONTHLY inflation; yes, every other month, our daily needed products are doubled in price.

​

So yeah, that's a load off my chest.

​

TLDR

• global payment
• actual inflation hedge, in our case
• actual ownership of my own money
• easy liquidation in case of emergency GTFO
