Exactly one year ago Kgothatso Ngako (@440UrPp) accepted a challenge to build a #Bitcoin wallet for a pre-smartphone mobile.
Now his company http://8333.mobi is providing that exact service in 8 countries across Africa 🙌
Many idiots have called this out as yet another custodial wallet service. I say these people need to check their financial privilege.


Those of you who first got a phone in 2002 will remember these kinds of SMS services. They could be quite advanced, e-banking, stock market tickers, weather reports. Well now you can even do bitcoin.

Kgothatso Ngako. What an amazing guy. Let’s hope it brings bitcoin to the people who need it the most.
