Getting visas & crossing airports as an Ugandan πΊπ¬ is draining and itβs funny am getting used to it.
I get special security treatment & checks, my documents are verified by multiple people with laser scrutiny, I have to provide financial proof sometimes π
The origin of my passport automatically dictates my treatment!
In trying to pay for a last minute flight online (Travala didnβt have the particular flight, would have used #Bitcoin), my personal & business bank cards were rejected, though I had more than enough fiat there.
I only got to book through
@Student of Bitcoin βs American Express card & instantly got a verification call directly from the US π - the gentleman asked if I was for real!
Itβs these small things that remind me of why #Bitcoin is important, especially the inbuilt financial isolation of the Majority South.
#Bitcoin is identity blindπ§‘
Thanks
