My wife is from Brazil and people here in the US really don't realize what is a small amount of money in US terms is really a great wage in other parts of the world. Congrats on making what is a good wage, here is to hoping that opportunities in your country keep increasing.

You should consider putting money in small businesses and real estate, I know quite a few people who started out making really low US wages that built up a huge amount of money over 10 or so years of sending money back to Brazil to invest. The people I know who have done this invested in really simple businesses like sapateiros, esteticistas (shoemakers, beauticians), etc. Even though it is not a fun as bitcoin, probably worth you looking into.
