South Africa
South Africa is one of Africa's most active Bitcoin markets, and home to Luno—founded in Cape Town in 2013—one of the world's oldest bitcoin exchanges. Bitcoin is legal, but not legal tender. Since 2022, the Financial Sector Conduct Authority has classified crypto assets as a financial product, bringing service providers under formal conduct rules. For tax, SARS treats bitcoin as an asset, so disposals can attract capital gains or income tax depending on intent. From Cape Town and Johannesburg to Durban, a growing community of meetups and merchants is putting sats to work. Use this map to find the South African places where you can spend sats.
