Stephen, my understanding is that Borja will carry BTC and exchange them for local currency in each country, using https://localbitcoins.com/. I guess it should be easier to find people who want some bitcoins in Africa than people who have them...

Therefore we are in an urgent need of exchangers, who would like to exchange bitcoins to cash in each country.

So Borja will be carrying the local currency in each country?  Or US dollars?  Or Huh

Great!

Is any place open to join the journey? Tongue
I was living 2 years in Africa and I speak a little arabic.

By the way I can offer bitcoin exchange in Tanger, Casablanca, Marrakech and Meknes. I can also offer bitcoin exchange via Wafacash (Local Western Union) in all Morocco.
