What’s on your Christmas wishlist? For us, it’s simple. We want Bitcoin to win as a tool people can actually use.
Bitcoin is about freedom. The freedom to move value. To pay. To save. To live without friction. We want more Africans, and the world at large, to experience that freedom in everyday life.
This season, that’s our wish. We’re hoping Santa comes through.
What’s on your wishlist this Christmas? Tell us in the comments.
A small heads-up. We’ve noticed a new issue on the app, possibly linked to the earlier Cloudflare outage. We’re investigating and we’ll keep you posted as we work through it. Thank you for bearing with us.

Strange, we aren't seeing it in our inbox. Do you see ours? You can always email hello@tando.me and we can handle it there. Not sure why our nostr DMs are missing each other.
Did you see the follow up before you replied? Payments can fail. Even using mpesa directly. Yes it's frustrating. Sorry you experienced it. Send a DM with your Tando app id so we can get your sorted.
In addition it's possible to have a Safaricom line, that's doesn't have an active Mpesa account connected to it.
It's also possible people have too high a balance and a transaction gets rejected.
All that's to say there are a miriad of reasons a transaction might not complete as expected. But rest assured we always refund the BTC if the KES never reaches the destination that was input into the app. 👍
Hard to say. Kenya had number portability for ~10 years. From 2011 to around 2021. Which means you could keep your phone number but change carriers. So unfortunately there's no guaranteed way to tell if a number is Safaricom, Airtel or Telkom. If there was we would certainly prevent payments that would certainly fail.
Hello Maya! Sometimes technical glitches occur because we rely on third-party payment rails, and they may experience issues occasionally. Don’t worry though, we’re here to help. Kindly share your Tando App ID so we can look into it. Apologies for the inconvenience
Also, just a quick reminder: Tando currently supports M-PESA only, so please avoid sending money to Airtel numbers.
Hello. Do send us your app ID and we’ll look into it! By any chance is this an Airtel number?
Africa has the youngest population in the world. That’s why we love taking Bitcoin education to campuses because young people are the foundation of the future, and Bitcoin gives them a new one to build on.
Let’s be honest, the old systems are falling apart. Ask any young person how much they have in savings, how many have started families, bought homes, or even cars. Not many. Most will tell you it feels impossible with inflation and the cost of living today. Many are still living at home, putting dreams on hold, not because they lack ambition, but because the money system is broken.
Fiat is a weak foundation. It keeps people working harder for less, watching their money lose value over time. But Bitcoin offers something different, a lifeboat. A way for young Africans to build strong foundations for their future and generations to come.
That’s why we do this work on the ground, one conversation at a time, one student at a time.
If you’re part of a community 🇰🇪that needs Bitcoin or want to learn more about Bitcoin and how it can help you, send us a DM. We’d love to help.
If your Monday doesn’t look like this, you might need more Bitcoin & Tando in your life😃
New week, same mission:
✅Make bitcoin useful.
✅Keep it moving.
✅Smile while you do it.

On Madaraka Day, we honor the spirit of self-governance as individuals. A reminder that true freedom lives in our ability to choose systems that serve us, not control us.
As we celebrate Kenya’s journey toward autonomy, picture a world where your wealth isn't tethered to distant money printers in far away lands, silently siphoning control.
It’s time we carry the torch of Madaraka into the digital age. Hold your own keys & take control. Run your own node & govern your future as Kenya did on this day.
Self-governance isn’t a holiday, it’s a practice. One block at a time.
