Throughout the clip, on-screen text reads: "Kenya-ready with nadanada and Tando, Ark & Lightning payments via Noah Wallet." > > "Touchdown in Kenya for @btcplusplus , already set up with a @nadanada_me eSIM and @tando_me for local payments. I’m using Noah Wallet to store VTXOs on my physical phone. Then the Ark lightning gateway directs them into local Kenyan M-Pesa shilling payments through Tando [Spoken audio]: I just arrived in Africa, and I need a seven-day eSIM, so they just give me a QR code of the Lightning invoice. I copied the LN URL. I went to my ARC wallet, and all I do is paste in $8 send, confirm and send, and a VTXO that exists on disk, which is the full Genesis chain linking back to the round transaction. wow this just spent that many sats yeah I go back here and this is payment received and now we have seven days of mobile data here in Kenya Africa this brisk morning with 13 degrees Celsius awesome dude what you showing me dude and now I have the Tando app Tando okay and what it does is it allows me to pay any local business in Kenya with Bitcoin. It's already here, send money, scan your code, buy goods, pay bills, so any merchant where I go up to them in Kenya that I want to buy something from, I can use this app as an interface and then I can route the money from my ARC payments. So I have my ARC wallet on the device for the VTX Ozar and then I use Tando as this bridge in order to spend money in the local Kenyan economy without ever having to manage a lightning channel or make an on-train transaction and wait for the gun for it." ### Post #2 by @arkv3official > **Author:** ARK ([@arkv3official](https://x.com/arkv3official)) > **Metrics:** 213 likes · 205 retweets · 22 comments · 10.6K views > **Posted:** 2026-06-16T18:08:10+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/arkv3official/status/2066945949050822998](https://x.com/arkv3official/status/2066945949050822998) > **Visual Note:** The image features a laptop with a gold-colored keyboard that has a button labeled "ark" at the top center of the screen.
