Welcome to The Bitcoin Layer, where we bring you research, analysis, and education for all things bitcoin and macro. In this episode, TBL Africa Correspondent Noelyne Sumba sits down with South African developer Kgothatso Ngako to discuss how he is leveraging his technical skills to enable bitcoin use without internet access. Kgothatso describes his path to becoming an entrepreneur, how he gleaned inspiration from countries with separation between state and money as he worked to gain financial independence for the people of Africa, and how central planning simply does not work.
