Yup. Mpesa is the primary payment rails for 34 million Kenyans. Every shop, hotel, street food vendor, grocery store, delivery guy, ISP, you name it, they all accept Mpesa. We tap into that network and let you spend sats anywhere mpesa is acceptable. You can live entirely on bitcoin.

We had the pleasure of sharing our story at the nostr:nprofile1qqsqhnducqt545lyw4x9t3x3p267wh6zul830xjm47p42hs42jg76rgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhs48y34w.
Our presentation focused on Bitcoin as a Medium of Exchange across Africa... 🧵👇

...and emphasized the importance of Listening and not Lecturing when talking to people about Bitcoin. 
Tando was born from this very act of listening during our efforts to orange-pill Kenyans. At the time, we made it a habit to tip service providers in Bitcoin. Without fail, there was one question we kept hearing after the bitcoin hit their wallet: “How can I spend it?” 
We didn’t lecture them with responses like “HODL, don’t spend it!” or “You don’t spend your Bitcoin!” 
Instead, we listened, and what they were really asking for was an easy way to turn their bitcoin into basic necessities, a way to spend it. That’s how Tando came to be. 
If you can only receive Bitcoin but can’t _easily_ spend it, then you’re trapped in the classic “chicken and egg” problem 
To break out of that eggshell, you need a tool that lets anyone easily spend their bitcoin, to transform into a fully grown chicken (aka a bitcoin circular economy). That’s where Tando comes in. 
If Bitcoin is to become an everyday money, we need solutions that make spending it simple just like people simply spend their day-to-day fiat money. 
As bitcoiners, we need to listen instead of lecturing if we truly want to accelerate Bitcoin adoption. People are telling us what they need, all we have to do is listen! 
Looks simple! Anyone can figure it out! 😉
Murungi, on a road trip across East Africa from Tanzania 🇹🇿 to Uganda 🇺🇬 takes a pit stop in Kenya 🇰🇪 to gas up the car.
He pays for the fuel with bitcoin using Tando.
Digital energy money to pay for liquid energy. It's happening here in Kenya! https://video.nostr.build/567ff1a9e7f4a8dea2d5ca6fc149c017f56ff95e130b398b5b6f3de49c852e2f.mp4

It's another “Proof of Spend” touch-point as nostr:nprofile1qqsztyptzz555j2t50ldfy7jzj8z2zzegma30erw7zcq9p9wfacrf4qppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0h4vqfk likes to call it.

🔸Increase clarity of the successful status of payment

🔶Redesign Transaction History to use cards (instead of a table) adding more information at a quick glance.
🔶Fix QR scanner bug
🔶Fix phone number input bug
🔶Add support for the newer phone number formats starting with 01
🔶Improved app performance monitoring
🔶Further improve payment reliability
🔶Server improvements & optimizations


PSA: We will be releasing an app update later this evening around 11:00PM (EAT) which also requires a server update. During this process Tando will be unavailable for a short time. We will try to be as quick as possible to minimize downtime. Thanks for your understanding!
Yeah, you're probably right! 😅
Thanks!
