Classic example of the powers that be crushing innocent lives through abject monetary slavery. Communist regimes build physical walls to prevent escape to freedom. Collapsing regimes build financial barriers to prevent monetary freedom and sovereignty. We must focus on Bitcoin education in local languages and dialects around the world

Language barriers. An all too relevant subject. The language barrier seems to segregate humanity into zones. There needs to be some sort of universal language. English is already considered to be "The business language of the world" and is almost a pre-requisite to learning programming, and yet, it seems to not be good enough.
We have amazing translation programs that can translate a written paper, or text to be pasted, like DeepL and Google translate, yet the refusal to integrate these applications by default into the web page, or even the consideration of using an extension, and the inconvenience of translation mistakes have all contributed to this failing to undo the human segregation created by language barriers
I do wonder, would a sort of hieroglyphic system of emojis, while clumsy, might be some sort of solution?

I don't this RoboSats has seen even a single BTC/NGN trade yet, for example. Once it is available as a mobile app as well, I could that changing quickly since P2P trading is very common in Nigeria.
