Any favorite ones y'all like?
Also it's just so you know it's great seeing you guys do more for these projects on geyser and helping get the word out for them.
👏👏👏 Love to see it. Few people in the space realize how hard this really is to do.
I recognize Swapido and Plunda from the list two great projects!
We are big believers that Bitcoin works bottom-up, so grassroots projects have a very important role to play in Bitcoin adoption!
Dream becomes reality one day.
Love to see that Geyser made the move on their own territory.
You guys are making more moves than most bitcoin companies in the space.
Thank you! We're certainly trying 💪
Is there a way to ask questions or give feedback to these fundraising opportunities? Like for Street Vendor Accepts Bitcoin, it sounds interesting, but I don't really see how the fundraising comes into play if they just install wallet / payment software. Is it giving them a starting balance?
Afribit ( https://geyser.fund/project/afribitkibera ), for example, not one gets merchants signed up, and wallets in the hands of the community, but also helps fund some needed services. The absence of structured waste disposal in much of Kenya has led to widespread normalization of littering -- particularly so in the slums. Afribit pays (in sats) for workers to collect trash from the streets, gutters, and some collection points, and also helps to educate as to why littering harms the community.
As far as questions or feedback, I don't think @geyserfund itself has that, at least not beyond you being able to add a comment when contributing. You could include your contact info, to hopefully permit a direct response.
Looks like they are doing trash service at each house now too (or maybe they always did, this is the first I've learned of this).
