That time of the month where I needed to send money to my mom in Argentina to cover her cancer treatment
0.02 btc (600 USD)
Arrived within minutes.
Legacy banking rails wanted 2x more money.
Also, it was never going to arrive through legacy banking.
Beyond a bunch of ephemeral narratives, Bitcoin is already helping lives in the margins by just existing. 
Is your mom exchanging into pesos, and if so, with what? Or does the doctor accept BTC? Have an uncle trying to navigate sending money back and having it available in pesos.
What a lovely story.💜💫⚡️ Heart warming. 🥰
That’s fantastic! Wishing your mother only the very best.
What service did you use to send the BTC?
Bitcoin IS the service
Thank you, her prognosis is not great, and the situation in Argentina makes everything WAY harder.
To send Bitcoin I used Sparrow wallet😅
If you’re asking about where I sent it to just a local Bitcoin market she uses
I hope your mom is Ok
#Bitcoin is very helpful
That’s fantastic. Wishing your mom the best of luck with the treatment!
That's great, brother, that news makes me super happy. May money continue to travel fast.
These are the use cases for #Bitcoin where it is undeniably superior to fiat in every possible way.
Bitcoin is better money. It’s a pleasure revolution-ing with you folk 😂🫡🫡
Being revolting? 😅
Powerful! -- Together WE are strong. -- Bitcoin Freedom ftw. -- Let's get it fam!
your mom is very advanced
The diference between pesos and dolar. 300k pesos(!)
Argentinean pesos used to be 1 to 1 throughout all my childhood
this to me sounds like paying $300k for healthcare
(which I will probably see in my lifetime too)
There are public healthcare in Argentina? Even a not so good one?
We have in Brasil, but most people also likes to have a private one because in some cities they have to wait months for the treatment.
I mean, there's something called public health care, but that's like saying the peso is money
if she had been on the argentinean public healthcare system she would have been dead years ago; no question
You're a good son 🫂
