Great, Jack is a hero. I hope his company is successful. Too bad I live in a privileged western country and can't use the app yet.

In that same thread Jack says:
Strike Europe is also very soon! Africa first tho
And then he mentions about the US not having the service in Hawaii and NY and that they are working on that too, but Africa is first.

According to Mallers, Bank transfers and Mobile money integration to follow soon.
This is huge because the government will increase taxes, introduce new ones, stop gas subsidies and everything else will get even more expensive, and unaffordable to many. Those who will make it through will depend heavily on remittances and strike could play a very important role.
