Cypriot financial crisis in 2010-2013 when the Cypriot government imposed a one-time bank deposit levy on all uninsured deposits there. Didn't even have a bank account there, just really pissed me off. Then I knew it is gonna happen elsewhere, just a matter of time.
Hi Grayson, great initiative. I'm from Scotland but visited Tanzania many years ago to climb Kilimanjaro, wonderful place. Since my visit i've often thought about how Bitcoin could allow Tanzania to benefit more from its tourism. When i visited it was incredibly hard to find a company organising trekking and safari packages that was fully owned and run by Tanzanians. I had to do a lot of extra work to use one and send a bank transfer to Tanzania. Most seemed to be run by companies based in Europe or America because they could access banking with visa payments facilities. As a result a large portion of the costs of packages seemed to go to foreign travel operators rather than the local guides and operators. With Bitcoin i think local operators could easily outcompete companies based abroad by cutting out the payment middlemen.
Good luck with your initiative. I'll send some sats your way!
You can also get azteco vouchers from https://www.bitcoinvoucherbot.com. Used it a few times before.
Just found a great tutorial for the sparrow server here: https://sovrnbitcoiner.com/an-iphone-enters-the-poolside-chat/
You are right that it will essentially allow you to continuously coordinate Whirlpool transactions but without using Samourai Dojo. Sparrow server should be able to run on something like a raspiblitz (see https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz/issues/3391).

With Tesla still holding bitcoin on the balance sheet, sats would make sense. Why not pump Tesla value at the same time.
Central planners gonna central plan. Digital Euro gonna get a slap in the face by free market forces.
