Just seeing the amount of IT workers from Brazil (me included) fleeing to Portugal...
It can't compete with the north in wages (especially the kinda-north countries which also have special tax regimes for immigrants), but it's much safer than the other CPLP countries, guess that's the strategy behind the new foreign law ?
I think that, for better or worse, we'll be an important factor in the portuguese demographical and budgetary future
Sure, next time an armed militia thug comes around for "taxes" show him your magical numbers.
I mean, this huge portion goes straight from "unbanked" to using a convoluted highly technical solution that has high volatility and no legal recourse whatsoever... stonks!
Not being pegged to a state-controlled currency means your devalued currency competes with stronger ones, at least on the fictitious transitional period, you're sure you want that ?
Assuming a stateless money, when/if someone then steals your crypto coin, which gov't backed law/judicial system are you gonna turn to ?
I don't think it's a "Brazil" thing, I've been in Europe for a while now, I only mentioned where it was because maybe it's different between (Amazon) branches.
The current job I'm at was like 5-6h of interviews, it was hard to pass, but it didn't feel like the interviewers were trying to play "good cop, bad cop"
