Lightning is dead. Bitcoin is slow. Really? This is how one can pay with bitcoin while the receiver gets Kenyan Shilling into their M-Pesa account. There are 30 Mio people in Kenya using M-Pesa. Every street vendor, every taxi driver, every store uses it….you get the idea. @Alby @Tando.me

Amazing. It’s hard to take seriously anyone that says Bitcoin isn’t used for payments. There’s so much information out there, some folks really just have to do better.
This is huge! And in South Africa, Luno has partnered with Zapper so that you can now pay any of 30 000 merchants with Bitcoin by scanning the Zapper QR using your Luno app. And you can now also pay for your groceries at the national retailer Pick n Pay using your Blink wallet. Africa is leading the way in innovation to mainstream the use of Bitcoin for everyday transactions. #Tando #Luno #Zapper #Blink
