In Cuba, we don’t have access to PayPal, international banking, or most crypto exchanges. But we do have something valuable: necessity and creativity. And in that context, Bitcoin becomes a real freedom tool.
📲 Many of us use wallets like Muun, Wallet of Satoshi, Phoenix or BlueWallet, which don’t require KYC and work well with a VPN. Some buy USDT on Telegram groups or even on the street, and then convert it to BTC using NCWallet or peer-to-peer.
💸 Bitcoin is used for:
Getting paid for freelance work from abroad
Saving value in sats to escape CUP inflation
Sending/receiving remittances without intermediaries
Paying for mobile top-ups, services—even food—through intermediaries
💡 In a country where financial access is blocked by sanctions and local restrictions, Bitcoin is not hype—it’s a necessity.
If you're reading this from another country, imagine living without access to your bank account. That’s what Bitcoin helps us solve here.
We’d love to connect with Bitcoiners in similar situations. Who else is living Bitcoin the hard way?
