Also, if you want some hardcoded nodes, you can use

Have shilling vendors similar to how there is mpesa vendors... copy the mobile money idea. East African countries are already used to mobile money.. now to start up shilling vendors. It starts with the first vendor... someone willing to buy and sell SH in and out of fiat... no different that mpesa works. I'm sure I can setup a trial vendor in Tanzania. Not sure if it would work but maybe an idea to try.

Have you talked with any banks in Kenya to discuss 'costs' etc?
This forum is filled with people promising to do this or that to boost a coin, then the coin goes up and the dev disappears after the premine is sold.
i have a bunch of those in my emails, people with all forms of promises. kenyan banks consider bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency a threat and some have even greatly distanced themselves with the idea of a local cryto bank link up This forum is filled with people promising to do this or that to boost a coin, then the coin goes up and the dev disappears after the premine is sold.

One big issue with remittances to poorer countries is volatility. On the way up, some people get surprised with a little extra money, but when markets are dropping, if you send a certain amount of fiat, vi crypto, to help pay some bill and the price of that crypto plummets, there will be a problem.
One possibility might be to use transactions within one coin as a sort of clearinghouse for remittances at a guaranteed rate.
For example Remittance company X, or the dev, or whoever, agree to buy back any currency bought by them, as long as the seller's coins are only two steps from the buyer.
So the Remittance company sells 20 coins to person A, Person A sends them to person B, Person B sends them back to the Remittance company and the Remittance company checks the blockchain and sees those coins were sold for price x, and so is committed to pay price x to Person B.
Some way to compensate for people selling outside the circle when prices rise would have to be figured out.
so far its the best workable theory. any ideas around it? One possibility might be to use transactions within one coin as a sort of clearinghouse for remittances at a guaranteed rate.

AML and KYC
Anti Money Laundering and Know Your Customer is a group of laws in the United States that require Bitcoin sellers to know who their customers are. Certain sellers will ask for your identification to comply with these laws. Other countries around the world may have similar laws and requirements.
Finland, where localbitcoins is located, is a fairly democratic country https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index but localbitcoins would not have lasted long in most countries, and you can expect them to be targeted soon by various larger countries meaning to make a statement about aml laws.
If you are physically in Kenya you might try meeting with a government person and offering them a cut of profits in exchange for non interference, but otherwise that kind of exchange would be difficult. For the U.S. side of such a business the payoffs would be much more expensive and have to be funneled through lawyers.

creating an exchange entirely controlled by the people...
What do you mean? Sounds a little bit bullshitty...

creating an exchange entirely controlled by the people but using Escrow with a reputation and feedback mechanism for regulation.

... But the introduction of third parties only risk drugging the remittance revolution to its current state. What if we introduce an instance exchange option to willing clients?
Instant exchange has to involve both the fiat of the sender's country and the fiat of the receiver's company, and would involve aml laws and registering as a money broker etc. A few big entrepreneurs who were completely honest and above board got attacked by various governments on the grounds of not having created adequate paper when they formed their company.

mmmmmh! quite a good theory and so true mostly the volatility part, people love it when its an up trend but the down trend always puts even major players in the crypto market at a bitter taste. But the introduction of third parties only risk drugging the remittance revolution to its current state. What if we introduce an instance exchange option to willing clients?
