$175 can actually get a fairly/slightly used laptop here in Malawi that’s good enough for the job. Buying locally avoids shipping, customs, and battery issues entirely. Thank you for your help — it really means a lot.

Yeah, that’s exactly the struggle in the Global South. Shipping alone can cost more than the device itself once you factor in size, batteries, customs, and random fees. It ends up punishing people simply for where they live. Fundraising and buying locally is often the best alternatively realistic option.
if you cannot stop a revolution, you must infiltrate it, radicalize it, and then "expose" it to the public as a criminal enterprise.
No wonder, we sees some kind of deceit. Many fiatstars claiming to be Bitcoiners, when instead they're actually trying to weaken the community.

Thank you for asking.
We’re looking for a simple, reliable laptop built for real work—not luxury. The goal is productivity, durability, and long battery life for offline-first education in rural communities.
Minimum Specifications:
Storage (SSD): 500GB or more — for offline learning materials, translations, curriculum files, and documentation
Memory (RAM): 8GB or more — smooth writing, editing, and multitasking
Processor (CPU): 2.0GHz or higher — stable performance for daily work
Battery Life: 6+ hours — essential for areas with limited electricity
This laptop will power writing, translation into Chichewa, curriculum design, offline lesson preparation, and proof-of-work documentation—turning intention into real, measurable impact.
Does this #999149 resonates? Similarly, after realizing that the system it is rigged, I too decided and made a choice to homeschooling is the best way. All I am working on, is trying to prove that it's helpful.
Thank you for your thoughtful points.
Hey friends,
I want to be honest with you folks. I'm really having sleepless nights. Right now, I’m trying to build Bitcoin Study Hubs using just a phone. That’s it. No laptop. And it’s not by choice — mine was stolen months ago, and I haven’t been able to replace it.
I’m a Bitcoiner doing grassroots education work in rural communities, trying to build something real, offline, and resilient. Physical Bitcoin learning spaces for places where internet is unreliable and education is mostly theory. This work needs deep focus: writing and translating material (including Chichewa), structuring curriculum, preparing offline lessons, documenting proof of work, and coordinating people on the ground.
Phones are great for posting and chatting. They’re terrible for sustained work though. That’s not a mindset issue — it’s physics. A system can’t output more energy than it takes in. Right now, the system is energy-starved.
A basic, reliable laptop would change everything. Not luxury — leverage. Better materials, faster output, clearer documentation, less burnout, more actual teaching. Simply: more proof of work per sat.
Bitcoin Study Hubs are community-led, local-language, learn-by-doing spaces. Independent hubs, aligned by shared Bitcoin values — like nodes. Phase 1 is about proving this works offline, under real constraints.
If this resonates, helping me get a laptop is one of the highest-impact ways to support. Sats help too. Tools help. Signal helps.
Bitcoin grew because people shared energy when it mattered. This is one of those moments.
With respect.
Non-kyc.
