From what I recall she was out on a help/charity mission there. As for the idea you're talking about; I find it splendid. Actually, what's missing is the way to explain to average people, how they'll be able to use bitcoin in those countries. If you (or anyone) have any good ideas that you could use to explain to them what bitcoin is and how they would set up a wallet, that would be awesome. Please avoid word like "random matrix" or "cryptography" they will turn around and run... Cheesy

If they don't have a computer at home, they can use the Internet cafe to set up their wallet with blockchain. Just let them know that they need 2FA, and they should use an email account separate from their regular account. And use a password that's complex, with number, symbols, and letters, that isn't in the dictionary. They can use their dumb phone for the 2FA.

Also, they should run an antivirus scan on the Internet cafe computer with at least three or four different vendors to ensure it's safe before each usage. There could be a keylogger or a browser session hijacker. Also don't allow .dat file backups to the e-mail address, just in case. As long as they follow this, they'll be good to go. It's really not that difficult, and much easier than using a bank or storing your savings in a coffee can.

Mah nigga!
