In theory yes. But how would you buy bitcoin without a valid bank account?

you earn it

Not everyone is a content creator or entrepreneur. The latter is particularly hard when unbanked, I‘d say.

In many African countries people are exchanging local currencies to USD or Rand or from bank accounts to mobile money etc with money traders who also will take bitcoin and give them local currency. It’s real peer to peer.

Interesting, thanks. If these people actually meet, that might work. Over greater distances this gets difficult, right?

I mean apart from mining, getting non kyc btc is difficult if you don’t know a seller you can trust, I would imagine.

Yes, that’s the pain of adopting something new. It’s not equally distributed.

It certainly is. Local meet ups in any shape or form are key

I definitely need to look for some meetups around. I have yet to meet some fellow bitcoiners in person.

If there is not one in your area already, you should start it up. First one I hosted was literally myself and one other guy.

Haha nice. Sounds fun.

Yes. That is the point of Bitcoin. No one needs someone else's validity to earn, save and spend their money
