Anaïse Kanimba’s Fight For Freedom Enters A New Chapter

Before coming to understand Bitcoin, Anaïse Kanimba did not consider anything more than one other assets for “Crypto Bros” for trading.

But after identifying the problems solved by Bitcoin-from the cheapest and fastest transfers to work as money to help activists supporting democracy to raise funds without donating donor-Kanimba witnessed Bitcoin Light, then in speech.

We discussed an arc coming to understand Bitcoin in an interview with it recently:

In the interview, she admits that she was confused when she was in contact with Bitcoin supporters and developers at the Oloo Freedom Forum.

“When I arrived at the Oslo Freedom Forum and saw the Bitcoin region, I was very confused,” Kanaba laughed in the interview.

“What do these people do here?” She thought about herself – before she learned that they were there to help.

Freedom technology and Bitcoin embrace

While working to liberate her father, Paul Rosabageina, known to save the lives of more than a thousand people during the 1994 group genocide (as shown at the Rwanda Film Hotel), which was Kidnap It was imprisoned by the Rwanda government, the sister of Kanmba and his cousin, both of whom were also defending the release of Ripsabagina, Pegasus Spyware It was installed on their phones.

At this stage, they learned the importance of protecting and maintaining their privacy in the digital space, especially as they called for their father’s release from the tyranny regime.

“Many people came to us from the Fredos technology movement and helped us create better (privacy) limits to ourselves, to find tools that would protect (for us) through our call,” Kanaba said.

While identifying digital privacy practices, Kanimba also learns more about Bitcoin. She quickly saw her value as a donation tool.

“People were afraid to donate to the Legal Defense Fund (for my father) because they were afraid that they were (connected to it),” Kaeimba said, highlighting the fact that Bitcoin enables users to treat while protecting their identity.

Kanimba will later learn about the above -mentioned use cases of Bitcoin, which made it quickly believe in technology.

“I can call very quickly the challenges that Bitcoin tries to solve,” said Kaeimba.

She added: “By thinking about my previous work (my work) in development, I managed to deliver many points, and I saw this really great tool that could save people’s lives, specifically the people at the bottom of the ladder trying to meet their needs, and people fighting against tyranny.”

Participated in the establishment of the Bitcoin Africa Institute

Kanimba has become so convinced of Bitcoin to the point that it is now working alongside the likes of activists in the field of Togolese human rights, Farida Napoima, the International Human Rights Corporation in Amy Long, and CEO of ERIK HERSMAN to get The Africa Institute of Bitcoin (ABI)It is an African research and research organization, outside the ground.

Its motivation is to make Africans in various disciplines contribute to the search for bitcoin throughout the continent.

“The story often writes people from outside the continent,” Kanaba said.

“Those (from Africa) who write about it are buried in the ecosystem for the production of the report. People write about something that happens in Lagos, put it on the Internet, and uses someone as a source, and by time it is published in the most firm magazines or more firm reports and then the voice of the people who already collected this data.”

“The narration must come from people who live it, and this is the place where ABI comes to support the network of these researchers, it helps people to understand Bitcoin a little better – its challenges and challenges.”

Bitcoin: Thinking worldwide, and locally applied

Kanimba is currently located in Washington, DC, and may pay close attention to all of how the Trump administration is dealing with Bitcoin and the type of organization that the United States creates around it.

“I am happy that this administration puts these questions (about Bitcoin) forward and that the organizers are thinking about it because it encourages other countries to think critically about the matter.”

“If the administration says,” All this is a fraud and this is only dedicated to bad people, “she added.

However, Kanimba explained that the implementation of the Bitcoin policy that is likely to be similar in Africa to consider the local context in mind.

“We must be very careful because we are not just copying it,” Kanaba said.
