Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day! On this date, 16 years ago a programmer paid 10,000 BTC for 2 pizzas proving ₿itcoin could function as a medium of exchange in the real world.

What we've learnt building payment infrastructure from Tanzania. Three lessons from the trenches: 1. Banks & Financial institutions move slow. Until they don’t. Getting a bank partner took 18 months of conversations. Then one meeting with the right person changed everything. Right partners go a long long way. 2. Mobile money is king, respect it. 60% of Tanzanians use mobile money. Any payment product that ignores M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa, Airtel Money is dead on arrival. We built @ntzs_co to plug into mobile money & banks, not replace it. Just make it more programmable 3. Regulation isn’t the enemy. Regulators are watching and that’s good. We want @ntzs_co to be compliant, auditable, and trusted. Working with regulators directly not around them is the path for us and the sandbox is the first step.

Don’t forget to join us tonight! Set a reminder: x.com/i/spaces/1qKDzPLgWzoJV
Our next discussion is on Wednesday 6 May, 8PM EAT. Topic: Liquidity Beyond the Dollar. USD stablecoins have liquidity because everyone wants dollars. What happens when the stablecoin is TZS, NGN, or KES? Different problem. Different mechanics. We'll break down how nTZS approaches liquidity for a non-USD local currency, Market making design, market makers, SimpleFX, and what it takes to make a shilling as liquid as a dollar. Join us Wednesday 🇹🇿 Set a reminder: twitter.com/i/spaces/1qKDzPL…

Tanzania’s workers deserve a currency that works as hard as they do and that’s why we’re building nTZS. 💪🏾 Happy Labour day 🇹🇿

A local stablecoin users can't redeem is just a token with a good story. with @ntzs_co send it back, it burns, your TZS arrives. Every time. 1:1. Redemption isn't a feature. It's the foundation. Anyone can issue a digital currency. The hard part is guaranteeing you can always get real money back, swap efficiently etc.
How to redeem nTZS: (getting your TZS) Step 1: Send your nTZS back through the platform or API with the specified amount, and destination. Step 2: The nTZS is burned. Permanently removed from circulation. The supply decreases by exactly the amount you redeemed. Step 3: Real Tanzanian Shillings are released from reserve and delivered to your mobile money wallet or bank account at exactly 1:1. No spread. No fees baked into the rate. No lock-in period. No minimum hold time. You put in 50,000 TZS, you get back 50,000 TZS.
