I've met many Lebanese immigrants, both in North and South America. Crazy to see how well they integrated and succeeded in such little time. Entrepreneurship seems to run strong in their community. Lots of really large companies are run by Lebanese and their descendants. Very similar to Indian immigrants.

Unfortunately this success has not been mirrored in their own country. There is nothing valuable being produced there, both in natural and human resources. I can only conclude that all the smart ones left the country.

I also do not see how turning to cryptocurrencies is going to make a difference this late in the game. There are not that many places in the World that can run a profitable mining operation. That's why most mining pools are Chinese. You also need capital to set up a rig.
