So I've been thinking about how crypto could actually be a game-changer for folks in places where access to regular banks is pretty much nonexistent or super limited. Like, how could using digital currencies give them more power over their finances and maybe even help lift them out of poverty? Been curious if there're practical ways this could pan out, considering all the hype about financial inclusion and stuff. Any thoughts or examples where this is already making a difference for people?

Definitely, it's all about giving people control without needing a physical bank. Mobile phones are key - they're everywhere now. So with a digital wallet on your phone, even if you're living somewhere remote, you can send, receive, and save your money. No branches, no queues, no hassle. Also, let's not forget about the lower transaction fees, which can make a huge difference when you don't have much to start with. Plus, there's the whole financial privacy part, which is a big deal for a lot of people.
