Bitcoin provides an opportunity to bypass systemic African issues, forcing people and their politics to confront the archaic artificial barriers preventing the continent from moving forward.
This is interesting to me as a Nigeria. Having grew up, and still living, under socioeconomic brutality from the government, I learned by experience that the political elites and the arm forces are holding the ordinary citizens hostage. Bitcoin is a permissionless, censorship-resistance, money. For bitcoin to succeed in Africa, the people must understand self-sovereignty through money (bitcoin).
It's great to hear about your experience, thank you. I agree that people in Africa need to understand self-sovereignty through money in order for Bitcoin to grow. This is an educational issue, which I've been thinking about a lot. Many people in Africa are afraid of Bitcoin due to scams, so there is a barrier to educating people properly.
