While at @Africa Bitcoin Conference we’ll be giving any donated sats to the Kenya Fire Brigades Association as we help get Bitcoin on their balance sheet πŸ”—πŸ‘‡πŸ”— Kenya, a nation of 56 million people, has around 1400 Firefighters. For perspective, L.A. City, with 4 million, has 4000 uniform personnel. Recently we met with the Sec. General of the Kenya Fire Brigades Association, and learned about their work in supporting and unifying the Kenyan Firefighters, and enhancing the fire service in Kenya. We also discussed Bitcoin, and its benefits as a tool for unions and wage earners. Our goal is to help the Association with their efforts by placing Bitcoin on their balance sheet, via donated sats, coupled with some education for their members. Their success as a union, translates into success for the people of Kenya, and the emergency services and firefighters they rely on in life or death situations.

Just under a year and a half ago, at 25k/bitcoin, the Santa Monica Firefighters front ran BlackRock, the 47th President of the United States, and Wall Street to become the 1st union in the U.S. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ to place Bitcoin in self-custody on the balance sheet… On a laptop, in the park image
A lack of understanding of what Bitcoin is and how it works has quickly moved from a funny party joke for a cheap laugh to a real vulnerability in any field you might be in
I dropped in here to explicitly check in with @less to see if the Bull Crab has been declared dead yet #Bitcoin image
