Cuba might be ideal for Bitcoin, but it’s far from ideal for BTC. Look at the fees—people in Cuba earn a fraction of what most do in the West. When someone makes $20 a month, how can they justify paying a $5 fee to move money? The cost structure of BTC simply doesn’t fit. The high fees, slow transactions, and reliance on layers like Lightning make it impractical in a place where every cent counts.
Bitcoin, on the other hand, was designed for exactly this: small, efficient transactions at a scale that works for everyone, no matter how much—or how little—they earn. That’s the difference. BTC locks people out, while Bitcoin lets them in.
