It isn't private, it's social media, which is mostly public.

Is most countries, everyone has a mobile phone, what is nostr doing for people in south africa?

well my little bit of education of the people whom I come into contact with - I educate them on fiat debasement and then I sent them sats via primal which they can spend at the national supermarket - the job that I work I introduced education sessions and sats for attending - every single person who has come and received sats has saved them and stacked the little they can - Primal (NOSTR) is the tool in which the use to send and receive... I also pay for my coffee at gym with SATS and also service providers like DRs and others.. what I meant in terms of privacy is that you can be anon..

You can be "anon" on almost all social media platforms.

Primal is not a bitcoin wallet, it is like a (illegal) bank account, so make sure to teach them that part too, because the balance could disappear one day.

I am teaching them that it's not held via a private key - illegal bank account.. explain that to me?

Primal is required to obtain specific licenses and conduct AML processes to provide custodial accounts and payment processing.

I do not know if any way to frame it as legal. Maybe SA doesnt care about this, but it still means that a kyc rug pull, or shutdown of service, is inevitable.

fair enough.. ill keep an eye out but until then - it is a cool way to introduce people into BTC. Lightning in South Africa is huge.. you can live on BTC easily in here in a very under the radar way which is great..
