First because of language - I speak English and German, no Spanish or Portuguese....secondly I always had this urge to get to know Africa and travel there...third one of my best friends lived in Zimbabwe in the 90ies and then again since 2015, and I heard so much about how btw can help in countries with high inflation for instance a lot of talk about Venezuela and Zimbabwe. But none of the people talking had ever been to Zimbabwe. So I wanted to take that chance, to go where no Bitcoiner had gone and learn from the ground and start sharing knowledge.
I say it that way: Bitcoin being uncensorable, permissionless and not changeable by governments makes it so special - it's the only form of money that gives us these properties with which we can bring down authoritarians. That's why it is so important. There is no other tool like it.
Thank you!
