Africa has embraced electronic phone payments. They have a venmo like thing that they often use to make payments and can limit how much so if they get robbed they don’t lose their whole bank account.

I just wish Africa as a whole embraced crypto. It could be a game changer for money transfer. This just seems like a ploy to train AI on the iris’ of Kenyans (and anybody who will use it).

That may be, but transferring to Africa is expensive af. Banks make a lot of money on remittances. If I didn’t know better, I’d say it’s criminal.
