In this episode, Nik Bhatia sits down with TBL’s correspondent in Africa, Noelyne Sumba, for an in-depth look at Bitcoin adoption across Africa, from thriving circular economies to major mining developments. Noelyne shares insights from her trip to South Africa, where Bitcoin-friendly communities are boosting local economies and major retailers are adopting BTC. The discussion moves to Ethiopia’s expanding hydro-powered mining sector and Kenya’s shifting stance on digital assets, setting the stage for a broader look at Tether’s role as a financial lifeline, Bitcoin’s impact on energy infrastructure, and the growing influence of U.S. policy on African adoption. As adoption and regulation evolve, Bitcoin’s influence across the continent continues to grow.
