Grande-Rivière-du-Nord is a commune in the Nord Department of Haiti. Jean-Jacques Dessalines was born there in 1758 on the Cormiers plantation. Yes Bitcoin Haiti will organize the first Bitcoin MeetUp in this locality this Saturday.

Circular 121 of the Bank of the Republic of #Haiti requires electronic payment service providers (MoMo such as Natcash, Moncash), before opening any account, to request official identity documents. It must be remembered that 1/4 of the population doesn't have a birth certificate.

Today we had the opportunity to present our project for a Bitcoin Beach Grant project. Thanks @Geyser Bitcoin Beach and FBCE for this amazing opportunity! https://www.youtube.com/live/RygfcIH2i0c?si=M53TgIp-xRt5NOaf&t=1301

In #Haiti🇭🇹, #Bitcoin means #HumanRights! Around 3 million people do not have a birth certificate. The country has 12 million inhabitants. So 1/4 of the population is deprived of all financial services. And this is where the magic of #BITCOIN appears.

Yesterday we had the honor of meeting one of the greatest entrepreneurs in Saint Michel de L'attalaye, Artibonite department, Haiti. We were surprised because he already knew a lot about BTC. He agrees to use BTC in his businesses. Now we will help him with the implementation.

Please join us in celebrating the graduation of the first Haitian students from the #BitcoinDiploma 🎉🎓 🎉🎓 Papouche and Val are ready for Phase 2 of YesBitcoinHaiti! As one of the top students, Milfort was invited to give a graduation speech 🧡 This wouldn't have been possible without the generous support of the Bitcoin community. There is much work ahead, so we appreciate all your continued support. Have a listen!🎤🥳👏 @My First Bitcoin

Teaching about Bitcoin takes effort, but somebody's got to do it. Papouche is studying the @My First Bitcoin - Bitcoin Education for the World to bring bitcoin education to Haiti. Please support his mission to teach about Bitcoin in Haiti by sending him some sats. His @Blink Wallet address is in the comment below!

Yesterday after I made a pass in front of the transfer office in St. Michel, every day is still the same problem, and the line is growing. This revolts me more, I will worked harder to make more people join Bitcoin. Yes Bitcoin Haiti. I am thinking more and more about how I can set up a community bank here in SM .

Good evening everyone, especially Haitians who are following us on the Yes Bitcoin platform. I don't want to have one word to say that Bitcoin is the future today, I want to tell you that this future is a near future, if it's near, it's time to join us, to come and learn how and why Bitcoin Haiti is changing, it's power, it's decentralization.

Be thankful for the help you received at the beginning that was vital to your future success. Satoshi, the developers, the adopters, the educators. 🌱🌧️☀️ 🌽

Sonje lapli ki leve mayi ou Remember that it's rain that makes your corn grow

Happy Bitcoin pizza day! While we currently have no ways to get pizza, one of our goals by next year is to have ONE pizza restaurant in our town of St Michel de L'Attalaye and they WILL accept Bitcoin! #haiti

Livestream to the Bitcoin Beach circular economy grant workshop #2 is here! #BITCOIN    https://www.youtube.com/live/0rN-qQT1sbI?si=grhLBU8NYyGXg6pX

This is how it's was in St Michel de l'Attalaye, Haiti on flag day May 18 🇭🇹

We hosted our first Bitcoin meetup in St Michel De L'Attalaye, Haiti on National Flag day 🇭🇹, the anniversary of Haitian flag's adoption in 1803."Ak Bitcoin, nap kapab reprann pouvwa Nou!"

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is today. 🌴 Pi bon moman pou plante yon pye bwa se 20 ane de sa. Dezyèm pi bon moman an se jodi a. 🌱 Telechaje Blink Wallet epi n ap voye sats ba ou! 🧡🇭🇹 #Bitcoinhaiti #btc #proofofwork

Today the line is growing. The reality is that Western Union is not gonna change. It's the same struggle every day. #Bitcoin fixes this.

A little bit of rain won't stop me from my #Bitcoin    journey. I've been through thick I've been through thin still I never give in when one door is closed many more are open #stayfocused #bitcoinhaiti

As I explore my country I wonder, what are the problems I encountered for Bitcoin in Haiti? Only 30% of the population have a smartphone. Out of those with smartphones one third only know how to make calls and send voice notes on WhatsApp. Others don't time to learn because they fight for a daily meal for their family, and lots of Haitian are jobless now. The few who have knowledge and time are facing another big challenge: the internet choices are Digicel and Natcom, but the connections are so slow you've spent money for nothing. Despite the challenges in our country, some join us for the education in hope they will have a smart phone one day. Yesterday I visited a school to find a place where I can teach the future generation. I want to give them hope and empower them with knowledge and opportunity for a better future. Just like Bitcoin, we are building a better future one block at a time. Let's come together to understand how this innovative technology can shape our future. #BitcoinIsHope #BitcoinHaiti #BitcoinForHaiti

Looking forward to learning more about Fedi and Clovyr this evening.
