I thought the post what about how to help with Venezuela's hyperinflation.
There couldn't be a more relevant cryptocurrency for this than Nano. Especially because Nano isn't mined, it has a fixed supply that was distributed via faucet by solving a very complicated captcha. Many coins went to people in Venezuela because they found solving captchas a more profitable way of spending their time than a real job. So Nano is already popular in Venezuela and does a better job working as a currency than bitcoin.
I have a very favorable opinion of the technology behind Nano and not so favorable of BTC, so my post might be regarded a shill. However, given the reasons above I think mentioning Nano is relevant to the thread.
If you're genuinely concerned about astroturfing or shilling on HN, please email us at hn@ycombinator.com so we can look into it. One thing we'd do is look for a pattern of such behavior. At first glance, I'm not seeing that here, and the Venezuelan connection seems specific enough not to be forced.
