The first Tando x @CashApp moment we've seen from a diaspora Tandonite, shoutout to @nairobiblack_ @nairobiblack_ came back to Kenya after 26 years. In the past, she’d have to convert her bitcoin to dollars, then ask her uncle to take her to a forex bureau to swap those for shillings. This time was different: she found Tando. With just her Cash App Lightning wallet and the Tando app, she paid for everything, groceries, rides, you name it, with bitcoin. Coming to Kenya? Be like @nairobiblack_. Skip the hassle. Load your Lightning wallet, download Tando, and easily spend your bitcoin anywhere in the country🇰🇪

I just sell pancakes. Why am I a criminal for saving? I work hard. I earn Bitcoin. I save it. This is my future. The government's new draft regulations don't just target "crypto speculators." They target me. They target every small business owner who accepts Bitcoin and saves in it. They could force me to liquidate my savings and hand them over to the state. That's wrong. @PRDG_ZA is standing up for us. Learn more about the fight: propertyrightsdefense.org/ 📢 SPEAK UP: The deadline for public comment is June 30th. 👉 Submit your objection: ag.bitcoinzar.co.za We deserve financial freedom. Not punishment. #BitcoinEkasi #SmallBusiness #FinancialSovereignty

True. That is why Bitcoin is based on energy: you can issue fake fiat currency, and every government in history has done so, but it is impossible to fake energy.

1/5🧵 🚨 South Africa’s draft Capital Flow Management Regulations 2026 are a direct assault on property rights and self-custody of Bitcoin. What was sold as “risk-based” exchange control reform is turning into one of the most draconian power grabs over private property in modern SA.

Growing up in South Africa, coding always felt like it belonged to someone else's language. So I built my own. Introducing CMT-IsiZulu — write Python code in isiZulu South African can now write codes in their home language 🇿🇦 Sikhona. We exist. drive.google.com/file/d/1arL…

Those who control the money, control you. Take back control. Debank the IMF with bitcoin.

JUST IN: 🇳🇬 IMF has told the Nigerian government to impose fuel and telecom taxes on Nigerians, to increase government revenue. Nigeria is currently the number 1 country with the lowest quality of life.

Every fiat currency in history has gone to zero. Every single one. Bitcoin has never gone to zero. Think about that.

Nothing exposes shitcoin narratives faster than actually using bitcoin for payments. I wonder how many shitcoiners have paid at one of these @Square terminals and realized they've been sold a lie.
Just got to experience this UX for the first time and it was awesome. I was about to ask the cashier if I could pay in bitcoin but then I noticed the little toggle in the top left corner and switched it to a bitcoin invoice myself. Stealthy bitcoin payments hit different.

Weekly Brief 2026/24 South Africa now lets you pay from 10 wallets at one checkout via MoneyBadger — and added bus tickets and tyres. In Kenya, savings circles are turning weekly sats into chairs, tables, and mattresses. And the Ark protocol just went live on mainnet. blink.sv/blog/weekly-brief-2…

I don’t want to have to ask the merchant if I can pay in bitcoin. I want to be able to do it sneaky

It’s a long game but step by step, block by block, together we will make bitcoin everyday money. The future is forged by those who will it into existence.

I'm just highlighting what is a broken and misaligned incentive structure and that there's a psychosis amongst those who have bought it. These people once they buy the stock need others to buy the stock and have an inability to reason. Fiat high time preference did a number.
