with language barriers come natural translations all issues but when translation is done through computerised programs, nuance is lost. french is notoriously layered in its nuanced meaning, but is also very literal; add in regional usecase, you have a perfect storm of potential for misunderstanding between english and french. and that's just one language. when coded jargon is translated, especially in "trusted" cases like with the Bitcoin conversation, mucin of the african uptake has occurred because of a complete misunderstanding of the application, use, and scaffolded power relinquishment which occurs. many remote local use cases of Bitcoin are translated twice before they are translated into local dialects from english to french then to african dialect. the most acute problem with the Bitcoin rollout in africa is the complete disconnect between the actuality of its meaning and the manner in which it has been sold to those who have adopted. it is not a sustainable currency system in the way in which its been promoted, nor is it being peddled as such. and, notably, nor is it the intent of the (b)itcoin white paper. Bitcoin as finance offshoot protocols merely use jargon and comprehension gaps to exploit unmined populations. these are not (b)itcoin behaviours. they are identity and consciousness mining theft rings. plain and simple. literal description of what these processes are fronting is a protection against a new age of exploitation in the form of digital colonialism.
