Last I heard (on planet money), the median wage in Venezuela was enough to buy just less than two eggs per day. How much can they spare for investment?
What they need is a stable electric grid and local miners selling to local exchanges - that way they can transact directly in Bolivar or barter if the currency ends up becoming completely worthless.
I'm not necessarily saying any of that is practical, but a stable electric grid and internet access is key - perhaps renewable energy and access to the blockstream satellite would be the solution
