We’ve been on a side-quest, and we have good news from the other side! 40 million Kenyans now have a bitcoin Lightning Address! They didn’t need to sign up for one because they had it this entire time, attached to the phone number in their pocket!
Try it: send bitcoin to 0717252303@bitcoin.co.ke (254 is optional). The BTC arrives as KES in their M-Pesa. ⚡ EVERY M-Pesa number works. All 40,000,000.
Wallets with LUD-09 support give you a nice clickable link to see your M-Pesa receipt. For example: bitcoin.co.ke/receipt/6528a4…

I am sorry, I have some mental stretches for you today. This account is being repurposed from "btcretreat" (Philippines BTC Conference). If you are still interested in it, I suggest following @btcisleapp. I presume many of you will appreciate the upcoming ZapRemit announcement...

The Pouch app's first main use case was processing payments on bitcoin island, Boracay. Then, it naturally became a tool for borderless payments and stacking sats. As previously announced via email, our app is rebranding to isle.ph, as a nod to where it all started with the bitcoin island project! This rebrand effort will take some time to fully transition over, but please note that our social media accounts will be updated soon to reflect the change.

Toronto native and Bitcoin community builder @ScartownSparks is helping build the Bitcoin Circular Economy on Boracay, a beautiful island in the Philippines.

My friend and fellow 🇨🇦brethren Patrick and his team understand that ₿itcoin is the future of money.
They are now accepting Bitcoin as a payment option at their 4 restaurants here in Boracay.
This is the way 👍

The Philippines VASP license moratorium was set to be lifted on Monday, but the BSP has extended it to 'indefinitely'.

Slash the cost of remittances and stack sats at the same time. What's not to love.
10% of the Philippines GDP comes from Remittances. Supposing the Strategic Reserve mandate passes, and the BSP (central bank) must acquire 10,000 bitcoin, theoretically they could provide a BTC=>PHP facility for OFW remitters at market rate. Both sides would get massive liquidity at 0% spreads/fees.

Several merchants may have churned because we don't get enough bitcoin spenders, but several businesses still accept #bitcoin. Glad to see someone posted their experience paying with lightning at 2 Brown Boys in Boracay, Philippines. Right near D'Mall in the center of the island.
Great to be trending on r/bitcoin. Thanks to everyone who supports bitcoin-enabled merchants.

Is this a real bill?! Imprisonment for not financially supporting your retired parents? Parents need a bitcoin savings strategy so they don't retire into becoming a burden to their children. pna.gov.ph/articles/1254476

You're a legend @ScartownSparks! Can't wait to get back to Boracay and spend some sats!

The good folks at Chimney Cake in Station 2 here on @BtcRetreat understand that ₿itcoin is the future of money.
They are now accepting ₿itcoin payments via the Lightning Network, as an additional payment option.
This is the way 👍

Cannot believe it!! I'm calling banks tomorrow to explain bitcoin to them, I couldn't qualify for a mortgage until now because banks couldn't treat Bitcoin as an asset!!!
After significant studying, and in keeping with President Trump’s vision to make the United States the crypto capital of the world, today I ordered the Great Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to prepare their businesses to count cryptocurrency as an asset for a mortgage.
SO ORDERED
