Toffees are money! The ZiG (Zimbabwe Gold) is legal tender in Zimbabwe. It was introduced a year ago, after the Zimbabwe Dollar hyperinflated. The exchange rate to the USD is 1:31 now. Prices in many shops are stated in USD and who is able to holds and uses USD . There is one catch though: there are no USD coins in circulation. That’s why you’ll get something else as change; like these five toffees each for 5 cents that we (had to) accept today. image

Greetings from Zimbabwe, one of the countries that Trump called a ‚shithole‘. Well, we have eggs here. image

In case Bitcoin transaction fees go up, it’s nice to have a cost-efficient alternative for sending BTC. One of those is Liquid (yes you gotta trust the federation)…here is a comparison of SideSwap.io and @Boltz - Non-Custodial Bitcoin Bridge two services that allow you to move your funds to L-BTC and back to BTC. Here are the differences in the fees you pay for a peg-out or swap and an explainer how it works image

I don’t care about a strategic reserve for the US to prolong its hegemony. Small indebted countries & individuals especially when generally disadvantaged would be clever if they acquired or mined some BTC. It will make the wealth inequality smaller. That’s what Bitcoin was made for. The chance is now.

This is a privacy nightmare! As Chivo was/is basically a state operated wallet every user is affected. „Bitcoin addresses owned … by all legal persons“ Interesting will be who has the keys to the Bitcoin bought by the Bukele administration. View quoted note →
