🧵 No Middlemen. No GoFundMe. Just You + Lightning.

Charles has no credit card. No bank account. No access to loans.

But he does have a Lightning wallet.

You can send him sats directly — no middlemen, no friction, no permission needed.

Here's how 👇

Send sats directly to his Blink wallet:

Whether it's 100 sats or 100k sats — every bit helps with medical tests and keeping his business alive.

New to Lightning or don’t have sats yet?

👉 You can use apps like Blink, Wallet of Satoshi, or Phoenix to get started — or DM me for help.

This is what Bitcoin is for.

Permissionless. Borderless. Human.

Let’s rally behind one of our own.

Let’s make sure Charles doesn’t just survive — but thrives, as a merchant, a mentor, and a symbol of Bitcoin's power in the Global South.

Why This Matters

Bitcoin isn’t just code. It’s people.

People like Charles — quietly building a better future in places the banks forgot.

His bone jewelry isn’t just art. It’s proof-of-work in the purest sense.

Let’s honor that.

Charles is proof that Bitcoin adoption starts with trust, relationships, and shared purpose.

He’s part of the Afribit merchant network in Kibera, and we stand behind him.

You can too.

And if you're ever in Nairobi — stop by his stall and see the magic in his hands.
