November 8, 2024·28m

Show Notes

Wangui Murathime, founder of BitBiashara, shares her inspiring journey from a Kenyan village without TV or radio to running a Bitcoin business in Nairobi. As a bridge between local businesses and Bitcoin, she’s educating her community on the benefits of Bitcoin for savings, low-cost transactions, and financial empowerment. Wangui explains how Bitcoin shields against inflation, helps her plan for retirement, and even frees her children from "black tax"—the cultural expectation to financially support family and a path to freedom.
