I live in Angola (West Africa, for those bad at geography), it's a Portuguese speaking country, and I wish more people here knew about cryptocurrency and STEEM. Unfortunately there is much illiteracy, and most people can barely speak Portuguese let alone English.
This would be a great option, since we are walking towards a very complex recession since 2015. Most people don't earn enough to make it to the end of the month. The prices are outrageous, more than 90% of goods are imported and the country's GPD is a mess since we stopped selling oil as we used to.
Steemit is a great project that I am now proud to be part of. Thank you for the article, it's insightful.
