Highly Recommended

I have been using Africa Free Routing for the past few months, and currently have three channels open with them. They have consistently been some of my best routing peers, and the customer service I’ve received has been outstanding. I recommend them highly, and encourage anyone looking to improve their node’s capacity to take advantage of their services. It’s also rewarding to be able to contribute to the growth of the Lightning Network and bitcoin adoption in Africa.
