I also chose the cash option if I were to go with a debit card the fee was going to be 320 dollars

Do you see the money being made? Does it make sense now why they try to fight a public ledger that anybody can view and use?

Borderless currency without those greedy entities telling us what to do

I'm butthurt

Edit1 : I did not use cryptocurrency because there is no fiat gateway for them over there

Edit2: spelling mistakes

Edit3: sad story but even if I did use cryptocurrency assuming I do not own anything at the moment, I would have to buy , wait 5 days for the bank transaction to clear, then send it over there then they'd have to sell it and wait 5 days for it to be deposited in their bank account. It's a hassle!

First Greece, Venezuela, Turkey, Iran and now Argentina, BTC will keep surging as the dominoes fall. A lot of countries are on the precipice of hyper inflation, I wonder which country is next?

Either way I have always said that economic collapse and hyper inflation is good for BTC.

EDIT - NO schadenfreude here! Offcourse we sympathize with peoples fiat struggles. There is clear evidence that volume for BTC trading increases from countries going through economic turmoil or hyper inflation and this post was simply pointing out that.
