Tando lets you easily spend bitcoin anywhere in Kenya. As easy as M-Pesa, but cheaper! ⚡

You work hard. Your money should too. On this Labor Day, we’re reminded that people give their time, energy, and skills in exchange for money, but most are being shortchanged. Why? Because the money they’re paid in loses value over time. That’s not fair.

Paying workers in #bitcoin means giving them money that actually holds its worth. It means honoring their effort with a currency built to protect their future, not eat into it.

To all workers and employers: it’s time to demand and offer better. Choose better money. Choose Bitcoin. And when it’s time to spend it, Tando makes it easy😉🇰🇪

Happy Labor Day💚

Tando acts as a flywheel helping merchants use the bitcoin they accept to restock, pay suppliers, and keep their businesses thriving.

Merchants are the heartbeat of Bitcoin circular economies. Without a way to easily use their Bitcoin, the flow stalls. But with Tando, it keeps moving.

It was humbling to hear how Tando is not only powering day-to-day operations for the merchants at Afribit but also helping grow their community by orange-pilling more people.

Wishing you a productive week ahead and keep building the future with Bitcoin🚀

Are you truly living, or just surviving?

I recently sat on a panel at The Core’s recent graduation on “Why Bitcoin,” and this was the core of my message.

Most people are stuck in a cycle: wake up, work, hustle, pay bills, repeat. They give it their all, yet it never feels like enough, not because they’re doing something wrong, but because they’re trapped in a broken system. A system that forces them to chase money that loses value every single day.

It’s easy to think life is getting more expensive, but the truth is, it’s not. It’s that the money we’re working so hard for is losing value, thanks to inflation. It quietly steals from us, every day, without us even realizing it. So we keep hustling harder and harder, but no matter how much we work, it feels like we’re stuck in place.

This is why hustle culture has taken over. We're told to grind, to juggle side hustles just to stay afloat. But this isn’t a flex; it’s a response to a broken system. And it's exhausting.

And that's where Bitcoin comes in.

Bitcoin is more than a financial system. It's freedom. It’s the soundest form of money in the world, scarce, decentralized, and built to protect value. Unlike fiat, it doesn’t erode your savings. It holds its worth, and over time, it can even grow.

When your money holds its value, you don’t have to keep running just to stay in place. You’re no longer forced to trade all your hours for cash that quietly loses meaning. You get to reclaim your time and with it, your life.

Bitcoin gives you the space to breathe. To be human again. To spend time with your family. To rest. To create. To do the things that truly matter. To live, not just exist.

I encourage you to study Bitcoin. Explore it. Learn what it stands for. Don’t wait until it’s too late to understand what could change everything. Bitcoin isn’t just money, it’s the freedom to live on your terms. Choose to live Because life is too short to just survive. Let’s live🌍✨

The people are saying, BITCON IS MONEY & TANDO HELPS YOU SPEND IT⚡️ And they’re right.

Just like Chris Oketch (a certified Tandonite😉) highlighted in the video, whether you’re shopping at your local supermarket or buying groceries from your mama mboga, paying your matatu or boda guy, or even sending something small to your family back home, anything you’d normally pay for in cash, you can now pay for in bitcoin. Anywhere in Kenya. With Tando.

Store your nsec in a secure enclave!

We've spent a big part of 2024 trying to make a reliable non-custodial signer with nsec.app. It hasn't worked out perfectly - remote access to keys stored on a mobile device is still unreliable, especially on iOS.

That's why we got very interested in AWS Nitro Enclaves - h/t nostr:nprofile1qyvhwumn8ghj7urjv4kkjatd9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wshszxmhwden5te0deex2mrp0yhxxttnw3jkcmrpwghxuet59uq35amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarjvd5x2cmt9ekk2tcpzdmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ue0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wvfskuep0qqsgafy9ye4j9p2x8vfmlq6equtpcg4m8ks7v545g0d3f7wwueeq5scudj64l and MapleAI team for inspiration!

The idea is to have an open-source custodial signer and deploy it in an isolated environment that provides attestation for the deployed code. Anyone would be able to reproduce the code build and verify that the signer is running the correct code in a safe environment.

So here it is: https://github.com/nostrband/noauth-enclaved

Each instance of a signer deployed in an enclave announces itself on Nostr. We added some Nostr to attestation provided by AWS - the report is linked to pubkeys of a person building the code image, and a person running it. This way you can choose a signer based on your own preferences.

It's already integrated into nsec.app, go to Settings => Secure enclave and try to upload your keys to the server. The signer API is described in README.

DO NOT deploy your real keys just yet - it's running in a production environment, but the code hasn't been well audited yet. First we need some community members to review the code and reproduce the code image.

The signer can also be used to generate throwaway keys for automated testing of nip46 implementations, check out "generate_test_key" method.

Looking forward to your feedback!

We had such a great time at nostr:nprofile1qqstt98ml80znxlze3dj5ez7swy8y60qqn8lu4ndpeuyevupmk6n2jqpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnfdenx7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8qmr9vfehgu3wvdhk6q73jue ‘s merchant meetup, which also marked the graduation of their 2nd cohort. It was an honor to share with the bitcoin-accepting merchants how Tando is a powerful tool for them💚

Hearing directly from merchants about how they use Tando in their businesses, from restocking with suppliers to confidently accepting bitcoin payments, knowing they now have an easy way to spend it, was incredibly humbling. That’s the kind of value we’re proud to bring to the circular economy.

nostr:nprofile1qqsztyptzz555j2t50ldfy7jzj8z2zzegma30erw7zcq9p9wfacrf4qpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt4w35ku7thv9kxcet59e3k7mgpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejq4sxxpv emphasized how essential merchants are, they’re the glue that keeps the flywheel spinning, making sure bitcoin keeps moving and serving real needs. And we’re happy Tando plays a role in helping them get that flywheel going⚡️

Big thanks to Bitbiashara for having us, wishing you and the merchants continued success as you push the limits of the future of finance🧡

Let's go!!! How was your first experience?
