How Monero is going to Usher in Freedom
summary
Argues that Monero can circumvent Cuba's financial controls by enabling private remittances that avoid Article 143 prosecutions, backing this with numbers: Cuba GDP $20.5B with 6.6 billion remittances, roughly 1.3 million in the US sending cash. Proposes a two‑prong plan: mass adoption via incentivized wallet downloads, Spanish education and offline access, plus a free-market marketplace (like eBay) to buy/sell for XMR, provides a donation wallet and privacy key, and treats mining as a later step.
