I have been going to banks for the past 5 days to withdraw but it has been a void and waste of effort and time. Banks say they have no money to dispense which is odd to one's hearing.

In my country something very similar happened, about three years ago, the queues were immense to withdraw cash, and it was always the same answer "we do not have enough cash", so I think that cryptocurrencies will be the money of the future, because you are your own bank, the problem is that there is much interest in governments and banks to limit their use, because it affects them directly in their business and continue exploiting the people, someday this has to change, I hope it will be soon.
I hope your situation improves, stay alive and well.
