In Venezuela the national government is the largest employer with more than 60 percent of the country's active workers, its wage obligation is subject to the public banking institutions where the payroll of all workers assigned to government institutions is deposited.

These workers earn the lowest minimum wage in all of Latin America. This is already inconceivable in a country where great oil wealth is presumed in addition to other proven mineral resources, but subjugation is even more direct when the banking institutions do not allow you to use your money. It is part of everyday life to find maximum withdrawal rates at banks that are not enough to cancel a transport ticket, so you have to go to financial institutions several days a week to accumulate the cash needed for daily use. All this without counting the exaggerated commissions for each intervention made by a user.

Looking for an alternative // Buscando una alternativa

It is no secret that inflation exceeds the wages of Venezuelan workers, so when they receive income from extra jobs or from a remittance sent by family members living abroad, it is necessary to find a place to save the money without fear of uncontrolled devaluation.

Among the most popular alternatives is "theairtm", a dollar wallet where ATMs (verified users) offer you the service of exchanging dollars into your local currency. "Theairtm" ensures that everything is done without fraud in exchange for a fee.

While it is true that it is a fairly reliable service and that it allows you to save money in foreign currency. It is also quite expensive to use, the dollar is priced lower than its real price and this is aggravated by the commission. Therefore, it is possible to assume that the commission is double or simply expensive.

A viable solution // Una solución viable

Recently, there has been a significant growth of Venezuelans experiencing crypto and blockchain technology. With this, many are gradually beginning to invest in crypts with the intention of safeguarding their capital and having the opportunity to multiply what is gained if money is wisely managed in these decentralized ecosystems.

In the hope that we will move further and further away from the traditional banking institutions, the transitional alternatives and that once and for all the massive incorporation of crypts and blockchain technology will demonstrate the innovative ways of conceiving money.
