In this compelling interview, Femi Longe, global Bitcoin lead at the Human Rights Foundation, breaks down what Bitcoin adoption looks like in Africa.
We discuss:
Why Bitcoin must be seen as a tool, not a religion.
The dangers of importing Western narratives to African contexts.
How systemic challenges like poor financial infrastructure can be addressed with Bitcoin.
The importance of earning and spending Bitcoin in Africa, rather than solely focusing on speculative holding.
Scalable solutions to bring Bitcoin’s promise to billions in the global majority.
Thank you to Femi for his time.
