In this episode, I sit down with my talented friend KG, a developer and rapper, who is on a mission to bring Bitcoin to millions of Africans without internet access. We delve into his innovative solution, Machankura, a service that allows Bitcoin transactions without the need for an internet connection. KG explains how this technology works and its potential impact on the African continent, where internet connectivity is limited for many.We also explore KG's personal journey, from studying computer science to becoming a catalyst for change in the Bitcoin space. He shares his philosophy on being a catalyst rather than a founder, emphasizing the importance of accelerating adoption without burnout.Our conversation takes a creative turn as KG shares his musical influences, from Kanye West to Kendrick Lamar, and discusses how music has shaped his life and work. We also touch on the broader implications of Bitcoin and technology on society, including issues of censorship, freedom, and financial privacy.Join us for an insightful discussion on technology, music, and the power of Bitcoin to transform lives and communities. Whether you're a tech enthusiast, music lover, or curious about the future of digital currency, this episode offers something for everyone.https://8333.mobi/https://x.com/Machankura8333 LISTEN TO EPISODE HERE https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/djvalerieblove/185(00:00:01) Introduction to the Episode(00:01:28) Meet KG: The Catalyst of Machankura(00:02:09) Bitcoin Adoption in Africa(00:05:00) Decentralized Bitcoin Mining(00:07:07) Challenges of Internet Access in Africa(00:12:04) Impact of Machankura(00:14:18) KG's Journey to Bitcoin(00:19:01) Balancing Passion and Avoiding Burnout(00:21:01) Musical Influences and Inspirations(00:37:04) The Concept of Immortality in Creation(00:46:02) Value for Value in the Creative Industry(01:04:06) Censorship and Freedom of Speech(01:15:20) Global Financial Censorship Concerns(01:20:48) Bitcoin's Role in Achieving Peace(01:26:40) Final Thoughts and Call to Action☮️ Support the Bitcoin for PEACE Projecthttps://geyser.fund/project/bitcoinforpeace Grab the 7 Days of LOVE Music Experiment HERE! https://www.djvalerieblove.com/7-days-of-love❤️  SUBSCRIBE to Manifest with LOVE Newsletterhttps://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe  SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH TIPS - Thank You! https://getalby.com/p/djvalerie   SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCASTYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@djvaleriebloveRUMBLE: https://rumble.com/c/c-6698813WEBSITE: https://djvalerieblove.com/podcastFOUNTAIN.FM: https://fountain.fm/show/761jhxFiibErm7eZZdltAPPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dj-valerie-b-love-podcast/id1441540841SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/6kZfzFZ3wKmWiljDajrJZ5?si=a9433473b06f464bRSS: https://serve.podhome.fm/rss/4996bcea-e098-5a89-ac63-af7a3df7cb5d  FOLLOW DJ Valerie X: https://x.com/djvaleriebloveNOSTR: https://primal.net/djvaleriebloveSUBSTACK: https://djvalerieblove.substack.com/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/djValerieBLoveINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/djvalerieblove/LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dj-valerie-b-love/  DJ VALERIE’S FAVORITE TOOLS START9 - 5% OFF - Run a Node https://store.start9.com/discount/LOVEBITCOIN MENTOR - FREE consult for self-custody https://bitcoinmentor.io/aff/love/  AUDIBLE - Get 2 FREE Audiobooks https://www.audibletrial.com/bitcoinSHAMORY - Have Fun Learn Bitcoin 10% Discount  shamory.com/loveSATSBACK - Get Bitcoin rewards when you shop https://satsback.com/register/Ezv2VLwKXgLd8X4Z DJ VALERIE’S FAVORITE EVENTShttps://www.adoptingbitcoin.org/https://btcplusplus.dev/https://baltichoneybadger.com/https://bitblockboom.com/https://unconfiscatable.com/https://bitcoinunconference.com/https://afrobitcoin.org/https://oslofreedomforum.com/https://denver.space/  BUY, TRADE, STORE, MINE BITCOINHODL HODL no KYC https://hodlhodl.com/join/NMKLQ RIVER FINANCIAL Buy Bitcoin Safely -Get Up to $100 in FREE Bitcoin https://partner.river.com/LOVE TREZOR - Get 10% OFF Trezor 5.0 and Onboarding Call https://affil.trezor.io/SHcTCOLDCARD Discount 5%- Promo Code “PEACE”  store.coinkite.com/promo/PEACESAZ MINING - Get $50 OFF your Bitcoin Mining Order https://app.sazmining.com/purchase?ref=DJVALALTAIR TECH - Get 1% OFF - Code "LOVE" - Mine Bitcoin and HEAT your home https://altairtech.io/  DJ VALERIE'S FAVORITE IDEASWHAT IS VALUE FOR VALUE? - ADAM CURRY https://value4value.info/about/
