Heartbreaking story of Nigerians that cross the border into Benin Republic to charge their phones. Stories like this is why we are building the M3tering Protocol.🥺

Last year @decentralizedceo lead us in an experiment to retrofit shipping containers with solar panels and a @dappnode, to provide internet and power in very remote community that have no such infrastructure.

"Self sustaining units of electrification, with free internet, financed via a validating node."

The pilot was successful. The shipping container made a difference. Now, all we need to is refine and repeat. 

We now know how to help these people. We owe it to them to keep deploying. 

One community at a time, we can bring these people onchain and end the worst of their energy poverty.

Our team did the thing 😁 

9 months ago today, Tech-And-Sun version 1.0 was launched and now we are levering it's learning to make them bigger, better, faster, stronger. 🦾
