Surfing on the Lightning Network | Hermann Vivier

Connect The World EP012 | Hermann Vivier | Bitcoin Ekasi | South Africa

"Edward and Stef talk with Hermann Vivier about the Bitcoin Ekasi project in South Africa and The Surfer Kids Program which empowers the poorest and most impoverished community imaginable!

Bitcoin Ekasi is an initiative inspired by Bitcoin Beach. The ultimate goal is to create a circular Bitcoin economy in Mossel Bay. The coaches who help children within the Surfer Kids project are paid in sats and can spend this at affiliated merchants in the Township in Mossel Bay.

The next step? Building a small community education centre in the township, where people can come and ask questions and learn about Bitcoin.

Be inspired by the story of Hermann and let’s create even more adoption of Bitcoin and Lightning around the world!" - Jonī Kyasshu
