Building a Bitcoin Economy in a South African Township | Hermann Vivier
My guest today is Hermann Vivier, initiator of Bitcoin Ekasi and co-founder of The Surfer Kids, a non-profit social enterprise working for a better world. The two projects are located around the JCC township and Diaz Beach in Mossel Bay, South Africa. In an environment of poverty, violence and hopelessness the educational efforts of Hermann and his team of coaches and volunteers teach the children fundamental life skills through surfing. Thanks to the Human Rights Foundation (https://hrf.org), LEDN (https://ledn.io) and okcoin (https://okcoin.com) for enabling Bitcoin for Fairness https://bffbtc.org. ----------- (L)earn Bitcoin - Become Financially Sovryn (available in English, Spanish, German) A beginners guide to self-sovereignty https://learnbitcoin.link ----------- Like it?
