just rattling this off so may be off

It’s nuts to me to that more people have phones in their hands than plates of food and cups of water 

“- Smartphone Users: 7.1 billion
- People Not Facing Food Insecurity: 5.67 billion”

rant

this is why I fixate on "depots and dispatchers".

in such situations, resourcefulness abounds. for example, there are cellphone-charging services (e.g. https://sajastation.com/). there are people like William Kamkwamba (who should be here).

likewise, locker hubs are a huge unlock (pun intended) for people without permanent addresses and storage spaces, and also the surrounding community as well. this capital isn't just unmonetized, it's mostly unrealized. same with dispatchers creating gigs & maximizing resource distribution where now they just drop through the cracks.

I wish there was a prolific sense of enough empathy to place oneself in such circumstances, in order to build to such a colossal, "poverty-proof" scale. a majority of apps I see presume a userbase with money falling out of their pockets and the fear of losing high status, which history has already shown to be unsustainable many times over.

but to each their own.

doesn't have to be a humanitarian issue w/ philanthropic recourse.

there are hungry people with phones that can feed themselves by being onchain.

so long as we've articulated their economy, onchain.

🙈 I was just thinking it’s wild there’s more hungry people than ones who don’t have phones
