I have a few questions:

1 - Does the country suffer sudden Internet or power outages? If so, how are transactions carried out if something is needed at that exact moment and there is no physical means of exchange available?

A1: Currently, this is not the case. Fiber optic internet is quite stable, with no outages, except for the occasional one, which is normal anywhere in the world. Transactions are carried out normally, without delays, just as they are anywhere else.

2 - Does the population receive any incentives from the government to report bitcoin users?

A2: No, not really. Cryptocurrencies are legal to a certain extent. If you do everything correctly, there is no problem, and if you do not do it correctly, if you do not tell anyone and disclose it, there is no problem either.

3 - How do you access your usual websites, services, and messaging over the Internet? Do you use a VPN all the time, for everything? Tor? I2P? None of the above? Do you need to use a firewall?

R3: Not at all, we can access them normally. One or two platforms are blocked for Venezuela, but for the most part we can access them without any problems. Of course, some online work platforms, surveys, among others, are blocked for Venezuela, they don't send jobs, but we can access the page. However, there are no blocks in that sense, we can access most of the sites we want.

4 - Can a Bitcoin user without KYC live without headaches, or must they use an exchange to avoid being arrested?

A4: Yes, you can live without any problems. I am one of them. Nothing has happened to me in all these years, nor will it ever happen.

You do not need to respond if you believe it would expose you or compromise your operational security.

I use Speed Wallet as Google extension
Speed wallet works as mobile app, if you download the app and use my referral code I9OABJ

You can earn 500 SATS as cashback!
Assuming a first transaction of 1000 SATS / 1 USDT or more,
Use the code 'I9OABJ'

Great, thank you very much, I'll take a look.

to give me more credibility and show that I am serious, so please
LOL a gun in your SN profile will not show any credibility if you post bullshit crap about shitcoins.

Remembebr my words: SN is a pay to post system. So you don't really need attached any wallet. You just have to post good content.

That's good to know. If it's all about the content, great then.

If they try, it's the bad actors who get caught, but that rarely happens, as there are legal ways to have documentation and proof of what you are doing with the funds, if requested, so that there are no problems.

On the other hand, yes, there is no problem sending bolivars, but only through the P2P market, as direct deposits to Binance are not allowed due to high volatility.

To be honest, this is everyday life for Venezuelans. P2P transactions are widely known throughout the country. Some people do them, others don't, but I know that the vast majority do.

As for registering on Binance, for example, there's nothing difficult about it. Registration is very simple, and anyone can do it. There are no barriers in that regard.

I would say that Venezuela is a pro-cryptocurrency nation.

I want to learn pure and simple Bitcoin. Can you help me with that?

Yes, I'm not entirely convinced that CCs are beneficial, but I'm enjoying the experience here, and I'm attempting to configure the gun in my profile by entering a different address.

We could say that Steemit really boomed in its first two years, even reaching an all-time high for its token and making it into the top 50 cryptocurrencies by market cap, but today its value is too low, and its processes—I'm referring to giving value to others for their contributions—are too centralized because of how it works.

Basically, you have to be behind those who have the most voting power, and among them they vote as witnesses to maintain the nodes. It's a circle, and I'm sure many continue to profit from it, but for normal people like me who just want to create value, I could never get involved in it.

Hive is a little less centralized than them. I've been there for years, but it works almost the same way.

The basics of Bitcoin, yes, I have a good grasp of the theory, but technically I haven't learned anything, so that's why I'm here, to learn, and I think this is the perfect place.

Now, regarding DeFi, or altcoins, I understand why many of them are crap, and the truth is that they are, but I maintain that not all of them are, although 99% are. Even so, DeFi and its crap is great for diversifying capital and earning commissions without doing anything, so in that case, I like that crap.

Great, I really like that, I'll definitely set it up.

Yes, I've just been trying to figure out how to add it, since I need to watch the tutorials on my PC and right now I'm on my phone. At the end of the week, I hope to be on my PC so I can see it more clearly, because right now I couldn't see it.

Thank you very much, I will do that. I hope to learn a lot about BTC here.

Hey buddy, nice to meet you 🙌

The truth is that I like SN and how it works. I also like Bitcoin, although I don't really know much about it on a technical level, but I'll do my best 👏👌

I hope to achieve that, although I know it's not easy, but I hope to add value with my experience.

Thank you very much, my friend.

I understand that Steemit was quite popular at one point, but then it lost popularity with the advancement of technology and social media.

But basically, it's about creating written content, and it depends on the voting power of the people who like your content, which is like giving you a like that gives you a certain number of tokens depending on the power they have.

The power comes from the $STEEM tokens themselves.
