Saw this tweet today and it reminded me of how my dad had a similar experience in Nigeria a couple of months ago.
My dad had a USD bill he wanted to exchange for naira. The dollar bill had an ink mark on it and the money exchangers didn't want to change it to naira.
He probably went to 3-4 different exchangers and they all said the same thing.
One of them said that if he accepted that bill he would exchange it for a lesser value than its worth.
Just like that money lost its value because of an ink mark.
Now let me blow your mind.
Did you know that here in Nigeria dollar in lower denominations like $1, $20, etc is exchanged at a lesser value than $100 bill.
This means that 100 $1 bills will be worth so much less than one $100 bill.
So folks join me I saying the phrase we know so well: #Bitcoin fixes this.
I was called an influencer on my life stream yesterday.
I still don’t know how to deal with that 😅
nostr:npub1unp0cqyh39q9ye59wzgf7dawxk2g3fch0a487jcedjmuz89u25ksk42tw4 you need to see how cool this is 🤩
Oh my! I guess that’ll be the future here soon. 😔
Those are so cool! I also love it when people post about their food. I always looked forward to nostr:npub1kpgs5rpr3l8582ducpvuurpzmd68alzjnnkftujxxq4r5yn3dnksml3x6c‘s notes here on Nostr because of it
The nostr:npub1funq0ywh32faz0sf7xt97japu8uk687tsysj8gndj4ehe825sq4s70gs0p Youtube channel is literally a gold mine of valuable content. 🤩
I was watching one of their previous workshops on "Finding Your Project's Branding & Marketing Strategy" today and the content there is really insightful.

Now that petrol subsidy is removed in Nigeria, there isn’t much traffic. My sister went to Victoria Island in the morning at 8am.
Usually if you’re going to go to that place from where I live, you have to leave home latest at 6am in order to make there at 9am.
If you leave at 8am you’d be stuck is such terrible traffic that you’d end up getting to your destination at 11am.
But my sister left at 8am and got there a 9am.
You might think that it’s a good thing, but that tells a lot about people’s response to current economic situation.
Always. It might be scary at first but it’s the best decision you’d ever make. nostr:note1jahsth5t7xkdqg485a2pgnpa6qq7ntz6k00m5jwj0yjhfy34ausskz7rmy

I didn't intend to put a question mark at the end 😪
Wait. What?!
That’s what I’ve been doing. Life’s been good
Good morning everyone on this side of the world 😅
