I live in Venezuela. what I am saying is that the use of altcoins is not as popular as its supporters inform. Altcoins projects (Dash, BCH, etc) are means of payment and in that niche its use is not very widespread, due to:
People in Venezuela first spend the bad currency (bolívar), we have banking applications on our phones and many payments are made, in addition to the use of credit and debit cards.
Very few people receive payments with cryptocurrencies for their work.
My argument is that the main use of cryptomonedas in Venezuela is SOV and in this aspect, Bitcoin is insurmountable, it is seen in the data. The implicit exchange rate calculated in the bitcoin market makes it more attractive.
