This is an incredible 5-minute destruction of Cyril Ramaphosa’s legacy as president of South Africa. An absolute masterclass.

@News24 He even said there was no snub, so stop your kak! News24 is just an ANC/socialist shill Organisation. Try being impartial and reporting the news as it is…

@ms_tourist Kinda stupid seeing as they have so many illegals that drain the system and don’t get remove, but a tourist / traveller that boosts the economy by spending here gets banned/removed - SA is a clown show!

South Africa's Exchange Control Regulations of 1961 are rules from the apartheid era. Since then, the US, the UK, France, Spain, Finland, Taiwan, Singapore and many more countries have abolished their exchange controls and prospered. Nelson Mandela explicitly envisioned a South Africa without exchange control regulations. As president, in his 1996 State of the Nation Address, he declared: "In order to improve the investment climate, our monetary authorities are reviewing, on an on-going basis, the timing and pace of lifting existing exchange controls. For us, it is not a matter of whether, but of when, these controls will be phased out." That was thirty years ago. Former Reserve Bank Governor, the late Tito Mboweni, said in 2005, “For all intents and purposes exchange controls have become purposeless." Even Dr Gerhard de Kock, who served as Governor of the South African Reserve Bank during the late apartheid era, said exchange controls "keep more money out than in and work when you don’t need it, and not when you do.” VALR will always abide by the law. And we will work with the regulators to find a framework that works for South Africa. But my sincere wish would be for South Africa to be emancipated from these regulations that were meant for a previous age.

@geordinhl You (the DA) need to do more to have Cyril removed. There won’t be anything left if he is allowed to continue with racist, communist policies until 2029.

🚨Bitcoin is under attack in South Africa 🇿🇦 The TL;DR: South Africa's Treasury dept. has published new draft regulations that would bring Bitcoin & crypto under strict capital controls. What does that mean? 🔍 You have to declare your holdings above a threshold 🤯 Buy, sell, trading requires permission over threshold 👨‍⚖️ Gov wants ability to demand access to private keys ⛓️ Possible jail time if you refuse You can read the full article here: capecrypto.com/south-africa-d… My two cents worth is that the South African government continues to push for strict capital/asset controls to avoid capital flight from the country. The power of Bitcoin is its permissionless-ness and censorship resistance. This is the apparatus of control doing its best to prevent us from using decentralized money. I would love to hear from some prominent players in SA - @farzamehsani @staffordmasie @SovereignCarel @MoneyBadgerPay @fluffypony @vryfokkenou Great recap from @capecryptoSA

@MbalulaFikile Disgusting of you to equate a crisis caused by weather with your party’s incompetence. People losing everything due to flooding and you make it political. Have you no shame!

You could retire with $1M - deposit $1M into DeFi - earn around $7k-$8k per month - move to Thailand or some shit... - spend max $5k per month - live peacefully like a king - off-ramp through neobanks - live off the yield tax-free What's stopping you?

The ANC government has introduced a National Water Amendment Bill that introduces racial criteria in the allocation of water use rights. In South Africa, a successful Black emerging farmer wanted to share/transfer his surplus irrigation water rights to his White neighbor (a commercial farmer and his mentor). The Department of Water and Sanitation denied it purely on race. Their license forbids transferring water from a “previously disadvantaged” (Black) holder to a non-disadvantaged (White) one to protect “transformation targets.” The National Water Amendment Bill [B1–2026] was tabled on 21 January to amend the National Water Act of 1998. The bill also makes provision for race-based preferences and restrictions in water licensing.
