For countries with failing economies, Armstrong tweeted, crypto wallets play the role of an “exit ramp” that is “available to anyone.”
A crypto wallet is an exit ramp from a failing local economy, available to anyone.

Armstrong has endorsed crypto wallets as a borderless financial tool that gives users in unstable economies, such as South Africa, the U.K. and the EU, with their recent economic stagnation, to access crypto, as well as dollar-backed stablecoins, and use them on global markets without any intermediaries. Besides, now that inflation is greatly reducing the purchasing value of many fiat currencies, Bitcoin remains a stable store of value, according to many experts. Many investors are converting their savings into BTC to prevent their savings from crashing to zero.
Gold and silver surging, but what about Bitcoin?
Several crypto experts, who have been stacking Bitcoin, have recently been talking about another promising asset that has been going up quickly — silver. The author of the book "Rich Dad Poor Dad," Robert Kiyosaki, and an early Bitcoin adopter, Jeremie Davinci, have been tweeting about it recently.
Kiyosaki expects silver to skyrocket to $100 soon and is currently stocking up on it, and in November he even sold some of his Bitcoin to buy more silver. Davinci tweeted this week, and while gold and silver have been surging to new highs, so will Bitcoin unless the U.S. economy improves soon.
The reason for these price surges, per Kiyosaki, is “the dollar is dying.” Bitcoin is next to skyrocket, he stated, “if they don't do something.”
You do know that #silver (all-time high) and #gold (all-time high) are moving the way they do, the dollar is dying. #bitcoin is next if they don't do something.
