I hear you, and I agree. In most African countries, people who are doing well are more likely to support things they understand, like college tuition, widows, orphanages, or community projects, especially during elections. But with something new like BitDevs, it’s not really on their radar yet, so local support is much harder to find. You cannot expect someone who thinks Bitcoin is a scam, or doesn’t even know it exists, to jump in and help. That’s why, at least for now, some of this kind of work still depends on outside help until it becomes better understood locally.
For small quantities of electronic devices, like computers or hardware wallets, intended for personal or educational use in Zambia, taxes are generally not applied (some other African countries do impose duty on such items). Standard (non-express) shipping is usually affordable, but another practical approach is for the donor to sell the device and send the money to the recipient, who can then use it to purchase a second-hand device locally.
Exactly! This kind of resilience shows the future of Bitcoin in Africa isn’t limited by resources, only by imagination and determination.
I didn't go, but one of my colleagues from Bitcoin Zambia went: https://bitcoinzambia.org/. It was a great event for people interested in the growth and adoption of Bitcoin in Africa.

I know of a merchant who does this because the tax authority approached him and told him that he accepts btc because he wants to evade tax so he decided to take btc into his wallet and put fiat in the books.
