Hey mate, this is interesting. Sometimes I think in the gap between common people and crypto and web3 tech and tools. «It is also possible to access circular trade opportunities using text based feature phone technology created by Grassroots Economics, know collectively as Sarafu Currencies, and for more advanced folk with smartphones, using Web 3 technology like CoinVise».
How is this barrier being broken in reality in Africa?. Thks for sharing!i
In reality, Sarafu are taking phones to villages in person in Kenya for demos. This is really slow, and I've been trying to get them to narrate and draw up a process flow that I could model in Canva, because then they could onboard folk much faster.
It should be possible to provide onboarding and support via WhatsApp groups, which are okay tech even for rural Africans, but User Experience is not something Sarafu are well versed in.
If you'd like to help, more hands on deck are always welcome. I have limited abilities plus time constraints, not the best combo.
