Today the line is growing. The reality is that Western Union is not gonna change. It's the same struggle every day. #Bitcoin fixes this.

A little bit of rain won't stop me from my #Bitcoin journey.
I've been through thick
I've been through thin
still I never give in
when one door is closed
many more are open

While walking in the streets of St. Michel de l'Attalaye, I found myself in front of a transfer office: Western Union, CAM, MoneyGram.
People travel hours to the nearest office, wait in long lines under the hot sun ☀️, and the offices often run out of cash.

Blink wallet is working well here. Bitrefill also allows us to top off phones with Bitcoin. We're also looking into setting up a federated community bank with Fedi. Smartphones are available, but many can't afford one. We are taking donated phones in the US and we are raising funds for a Starlink transceiver, which works very well here.
As I explore my country I wonder, what are the problems I encountered for Bitcoin in Haiti?
Only 30% of the population have a smartphone. Out of those with smartphones one third only know how to make calls and send voice notes on WhatsApp.
Others don't time to learn because they fight for a daily meal for their family, and lots of Haitian are jobless now.
The few who have knowledge and time are facing another big challenge: the internet choices are Digicel and Natcom, but the connections are so slow you've spent money for nothing.
Despite the challenges in our country, some join us for the education in hope they will have a smart phone one day.
Yesterday I visited a school to find a place where I can teach the future generation. I want to give them hope and empower them with knowledge and opportunity for a better future.
Just like Bitcoin, we are building a better future one block at a time. Let's come together to understand how this innovative technology can shape our future. #BitcoinIsHope #BitcoinHaiti #BitcoinForHaiti
Looking forward to learning more about Fedi and Clovyr this evening. 
Thank you @thecore21m for this opportunity to learn 🙏🏿📖 I'm excited to be part of the 3rd cohort so I can bring #bitcoin education to my community in Haiti! 🇭🇹
Thanks for the referral @Destinysmart_ @story_bitcoin 🟠🔗
We are moving forward little by little. We are applying for grants and have built a small leadership group, and Putin Haiti has about 25 members that are actively learning about Bitcoin.
what time zone is the timechain calendar? I didn't see it anywhere.
