Great one! Kenya is moving so far ahead in #bitcoin adoption!
Here in Uganda there are some efforts going on but still very far behind #Kenya
Hey Joe, we’re drying mangos in Paraguay and Ethiopia using waste heat from our mining facilities, let me know if you ever want to take a look / share how we’re trying to develop systems that re use the heat we produce create jobs and BTC education to the communities that we work with. 🇵🇾🇪🇹💜🥭
Ok just because of this post i want to follow you

Epic lurkage too btw 😉
Fck me that’s awesome. Obviously I wanna see that!! Possibly in February next year

Shoutout to the people who did the first ever bitcoin-to-mpesa bridges over a decade ago (Kipochi, Bitpesa, @bumi), but were shut down by Safaricom at the time!
I didn’t know this. Where can I find more?
I met Pelle in Nairobi in 2013 or 14. Here's his account about Kipochi:
Bitpesa was shut down by Safaricom in the same year IIRC, but apparently turned into an exchange later:
@bumi and I were traveling around East Africa during that time frame, and he built a Telegram bot in order to pay for his own things with bitcoin and to demo how bridges could work.

Oh wow, I've never seen the second one with the taxi driver. Unfortunately, I don't have a Vimeo account anymore, and somehow it's behind a login wall. Could you re-upload elsewhere perhaps?
hm, try it again it should work without login now.
I wish he would have just accepted the BTC back then.

Works! And it's much quicker and more concise than the other video. 👌
guess I did not think about the tik-tok age attention timespan back then when I did the video. 😉
this is some good memories though, but makes me wonder how far we came?
I might have arrived in a "maybe I should have just chilled at the beach" mode.
At least we don't do zero-conf txs for small payments anymore. That's a massive improvement.
Love it Joe. You don't miss 🎯🧡
awesome!
This is 💯
Brilliant and so refreshing to see. A hand up rather than a hand out - in such a crazy world. Good work, to all involved. And great video, Joe! 👊🏻₿ 🧡
I just subscribed and liked the video. Nice job!

Great work. Keep doing what you are doing! 🧡
The revolution will happen from the bottom up.
So true, it's the impoverished and the unbanked that this technology really shines bright for.
I enjoyed watching this one too!
Great film!
Another great episode @npub1lr2z...dl6a
Showing the world the real use of Bitcoin with boots on the ground.
This is awesome @npub1lr2z...dl6a

Always interested to learn what wallets people use around the world. I’ve seen Bitkit and Pheonix in the videos but would love to know what people in all these countries prefer? Assume WoS?
Blink Bitcoin wallet mostly!
That so cool love to see the impact of one community all over the world!
Awesome video Joe! Really enjoyed it.
Do you think it would be possible to share the QR codes of the merchants you visit on screen for the viewers? For future videos 😃.
Tried some of them but they weren't in focus enough for my camera to pick up.
Thanks in advance!
They certainly need bitcoin there!
Must watch. Amazing what's happening in the Kibera slums.
