Apple is adding a Bitcoin Wallet to iMessage

The problem is that it's Apple, not Android. Not many people in South Africa use an iPhone, and few if any of them don't already have bank accounts. So from an affordability point of view we're going to have to wait for an app like WhatsApp to use bitcoin to make a difference in Africa.

It's a good point. But if you compare the US adoption vs SA adoption, and the amount of Apple device users in South Africa are very very likely to to use the wallet service, hence massive growth.
