Tomatoes and 🍟 fries paid in Bitcoin.
Real scenes from Nairobi where $BTC works even in tiny street shops.
This is what adoption looks like when nobody’s trying to impress VCs. A veggie stand, a guy frying potatoes, a simple QR code. Pay in $BTC, get your food… and sometimes even a 5% discount. Normal life stuff. No hype, no panels, just usage.
I love this because it flips the usual narrative. While some rich countries debate endlessly, places like Kenya just move forward. Bitcoin isn’t an ideology there — it’s practical. Fast, borderless, and oddly human. C’est du concret.
That’s how revolutions really happen. Not with fireworks, but with tomatoes and hot fries under the African sun ☀️
