Ethiopia and Bitcoin

Aug 1, 2021 – In the first part of this two-part podcast, I talk to Bitcoin thought leader and educator Kal Kassa on why Ethiopia is an inflection point and in prime position to embrace Bitcoin culturally and economically.

The Marathon: Ethiopia And Bitcoin

Jun 17, 2021 – If we are to have any chance of real development out of poverty and into sustainable growth, serious consideration of a sovereign wealth fund in bitcoin, with full State custody along with transparency in accounting, should be taken.

According to Arcane Research, as of September 2020, the fund owns almost 600 BTC through its investment holdings.
