I meet a security guard who saw me walk to the car and ask me for money for lunch. \n\nWe got to talking and he told me\nHe is employed. \nWorks 6 days a week. \n7am - 5pm\nHas a wife who works and helps a clean and look after a household\nHe has 2 kids In govt school so no fees. \nHe gets paid 120k Tsh a month….\nHas to pay electricity he said cost him 10k Tsh a month and water bill 5k Tsh a month. \n\n\nHis phone can’t support playstore or AppStore… so can get him his own lightning wallet at the list. Hardware wallet, no computer. Internet is a luxury. \n\n\nWhat now… that’s what I am wrestling with and where I want to shine light to. \nI know about Bitcoin enough to buy it pretty much daily. \n\nThe only option I can think of is a trusted community bitcoin bank. At the basic level I have an excel with there details and sats they have accumulated and set up a wallet that holds them in and go from there.\n\nWaiting for the infrastructure is negligence on my part as far as I am concerned. I can do something and can start from there."}
