I'm guessing you haven't actually been to Boise? It has a huge immigrant population. Lots of Latinos, but also folks from all over Asia and Europe to work at Micron. It also has an ever-growing number of Californian expats.

Yes, I wasn't presuming otherwise, which is why I specified "less famously immigrant-friendly" instead of "less immigrant-friendly." I simply haven't heard as much about the immigration there even though I'm American, probably because Buenos Aires is a much larger city. EDIT: Also, in case my "on a more serious note" didn't make it explicitly clear, that entire sentence about Boise was a joke. EDIT 2: I might as well…

I understood you were joking. And, as with any forum of smart, nerdy people, there is an inevitable percentage who will point out how some part of your joke does not fit with observable facts.

This data should be shared by all countries on an open basis.

As in the "think of the kids" or "fighting terrorism" umbrellas, the "fight money laundry" monicker is bought and supported by Joe Naive then they are surprised when their account gets locked because they split a dinner with their friend or why the bank treats them as a criminal if they want to deal with cash.

I once went to a club called cuba nova in Germany. I didn’t have cash for the entrance fee so I borrowed it from a friend of mine and she sent it to herself from my phone via PayPal. End of the story was that she put “cuba” in the message and our accounts got blocked. It took a staggering amount of information and arguing that we are not dealing with Cuba the country to get our accounts working again.

Bitcoin solves this

Does immigration to South America is still a thing at all? For people besides Latinos. South American countries seem to have had so many false starts. The moment they have a few decades good run, and it seem the country is finally starting to take off they either have a revolution, putsch, junta, or a communist government.

I don't think you should get downvoted, it's a good question. I live in Buenos Aires, and there is definitely a general perception that the country is hopeless. But for some reason we do get a fair share of immigrants from more prosperous countries such as South Korea and China. There's also a lot of people coming in from Africa, mainly Senegal from what I've heard.

What do you think on Buenos Aires vs Sao Paulo?

Did a tx for $2.13 mining fee and it was confirmed in the next block, 14 mins, so will you just stop with this nonsense?

Use Lightning network. It’s virtually zero fee and lightning fast.

Still have to spend the $20+ to put cash on the lightning network, right?

The transaction fees change over time depending on demand. Maybe you should stop with the unlikely edge case: network is underutilized.
