We speak with Hermann of Bitcoin Ekasi (@bitcoinekasi) and Luthando, a Senior coach with The Surfer Kids (@the_surfer_kids) about their first steps building a Bitcoin Economy in a South African township inspired by the success of Bitcoin Beach El Zonte. @BitcoinEkasi is teaching residents and merchants in the townships outside Mossel Bay how – and why – to use Bitcoin as money. The project is managed by @the_surfer_kids, a local non-profit empowering marginalized youths.
