A few months ago I had an experience where I had someone from a less fortunate country do some work for me. He offered to do the work for what seemed like a ridiculously small amount of money. I paid him triple what he asked and it was still a small amount of money for me but it made him happy and he was doing great work.
That got me thinking, this asymmetry is a great thing for Bitcoin adoption. Sending someone in another country a small amount of money can be a life changing experience for them. It's only by removing by removing banks, governments and fees that this is even possible. Bitcoin fixes this.
