That's great to hear. I would be happy if it was possible also in my country.

Thank you for a very good question.
I will be adding this section to the article:
You've hit on a key point about Distriator's design!

Does Your Country Matter for Distriator?

Not in the way you might think! Distriator is designed to be a global project. The system itself, being built on the Hive blockchain, doesn't care what country you're in.

You can absolutely recruit businesses to accept Hive anywhere in the world. The essay highlights this by saying "This is a huge opportunity for the Hive community to help more businesses join the crypto economy." The goal is to spread Hive Backed Dollars and Bitcoin Lightning payments broadly.

While Distriator is currently live with a whitelist of 75 businesses in 7 countries, that list is always growing. It's not limited to those specific locations. The project encourages individuals to onboard new businesses and new users in any location.

In short, if you're asking if Distriator is now live in your country, the answer is:

  • Yes, if your country is one of the 7 listed (Venezuela, Brazil, Cuba, Ghana, Guatemala, Mexico, Poland) and you're near a city with whitelisted businesses.
  • Potentially yes, anywhere else, if you or others work to onboard businesses in your area. The system is set up to support this expansion globally through its onboarding processes for businesses and users.

Why Country Doesn't Limit Distriator

The core idea behind Distriator is to create a "parallel economy" that operates outside traditional banking systems. Since Hive is a global blockchain and Bitcoin Lightning is a global payment network, Distriator leverages this to be accessible worldwide. The main requirements are that:

  • Both the user and the business have Hive accounts.
  • The business is willing to accept Bitcoin Lightning or Hive Backed Dollar payments.
  • Users are willing to document their purchases on the Hive blockchain for cashback.

This setup means the project isn't tied to specific national borders or regulations in the same way traditional financial services might be. It's truly a grassroots effort to expand cryptocurrency usage one business and one user at a time, anywhere in the world.
