Hello Steemians!!
Lately I had only been blogging about me, in this new stage that I am living outside of my country .. but today in Venezuela people are going through a situation that even many people do not know, and I want to highlight this.
Últimamente solo había estado bloggeando acerca mi, en esta nueva etapa que estoy viviendo fuera de mi país.. pero hoy en Venezuela la gente esta pasando por una situación que aun muchas personas no conocen, y quiero resaltar esto.
A reality of venezuela that even many people do not know, is that we have a foreign exchange control, and this control has created a black market, and this converted the dollar (or any other currency) into a product that is subject to supply and demand.
Una realidad de Venezuela que aun muchas personas no conocen, es que tenemos un control cambiarlo, y este control ha creado un mercado negro, y esto convirtió el Dolar (o cualquier otra divisa) en un producto que se somete a la oferta y demanda
Once explained this, I want to show you the advance of the inflation of the dollar with respect to the Bolivar, and at the same time regarding the minimum monthly salary in my country:
Una vez explicado esto, quiero mostrarles el avance de la inflación del dolar respecto al bolívar, y al mismo tiempo respecto al sueldo mínimo mensual en mi país:
2014
Bs vs Dollar
Dolartoday
Surce
in 2014, 1 dollar was the equivalent of 100 bolivares approximately
en el 2014, 1 dolar era el equivalente a 100 bolívares aproximadamente
Minimun Wage (Bs)

the minimum salary in Venezuela in 2014 was a total of 3879.73 (salary + food bonus)
el sueldo mínimo en Venezuela en el 2014 era de un total de 3879,73 (sueldo + bono alimentario)
Minimun Wage (Dollar)
if the minimum wage was 3879.73, divided by 100.49 per dollar, the minimum wage was 38.6 dollars per month
si el salario mínimo era de 3879.73, dividido entre 100,49 por dolar, el sueldo mínimo era de 38.6 dolares al mes
2017
Bs vs Dollar

Now, 1 dollar is the equivalent of 103024 bolivares approximately
Ahora, 1 dolar es el equivalente a 103024 bolívares aproximadamente
Minimun Wage (Bs)

the minimum salary in Venezuela today is 456507,43 (salary + food bonus)
el sueldo mínimo en Venezuela ahora es de un total de 456507,43 (sueldo + bono alimentario)
Minimun Wage (Dollar)
if the minimum wage is 456507.43, divided by 103024.27 per dollar, the minimum wage is 4.43 dollars per month
si el salario mínimo es de 456507.43, dividido entre 103024.27 por dolar, el sueldo mínimo es de 4.43 dolares al mes
In the course of 3 years, the minimum salary in Venezuela has gone from 38.8 to 4.43, being almost a 1000% loss in the purchasing power of a Venezuelan. I hope that with this people in other countries can understand a little better than this happening in my country.
En el transcurso de 3 años, el sueldo mínimo en Venezuela ha pasado de 38.8 a 4.43, siendo casi un 1000% de perdida en el poder adquisitivo de un venezolano.Espero que con esto las personas en otros países puedan entender un poco mejor que esta pasando en mi país.
Ps: To the people that during the steemfest I told them that the minimum salary was in 8 dollars: At that moment it was 8 Dollars
Ps: A las personas que durante el steemfest les dije que el sueldo mínimo estaba en 8 dolares: En ese momento estaba a 8 Dolares
Great personal view. Hard to discuss economics when some have no personal story to relate to. Just distant theories in a text book are vague. You can explain several principles but when it is possible that it can happen to them or someone they know, it is then targeted at their wallet and the light bulb goes off.
Curious if you can do a comparison on silver/bolivar and bitcoin/bolivar from the two time periods?

Venezuela is just another victim of USA's greed. I hope Venezuela can recover soon. A lot of families and people have been suffering. I've seen more Venezuelans here in Ecuador, doing any job (i.e. getting on bus to sell candies and singing) just to support their families.

Saludos, muy buena la información estimado, solo quiero agregar que aún estando hiperdevaluado, la calle todavia esta en calma, me pregunto será que estamos en el ojo del huracán, o mejor dicho el desgobierno estará en el ojo del huracan. Porque ya en otros tiempos la calle estuviese en llamas, y por otro lado al venezolano de a pie, nos agarro la devaluacón del mas del 2000%, pero a los enchufados y los militares le suben sus ingresos al 4000%, porque ellos si andan en tremendas camionetas y nada que se quejan de la situación, claro eso es para las cupulas, pero nosotros los de a pie....cada dia valemos menos....por desgracia del desgobienro....
