Crypto for Change - Bitcoin and Africa - An Insider's Perspective on LTB 133

September 12th, 2014 by mic

Listening to Richard Boase talk to Adam B. Levine on LTB Episode 133, I very much related to his description of the many challenges Bitcoin advocates face in Kenya and the rest of Africa. After arriving in Nairobi, all evangelistic and upbeat about Bitcoin and his charity mission, Richard left six weeks later, rather disappointed and with a completely different outlook.

If you have not yet listened to Episode 133, I highly recommend it.
