David Nandwa

David Nandwa founded HoneyCoin to build stablecoin payment infrastructure from an East African starting point, rather than importing a model designed elsewhere. The platform enables consumers and businesses to move digital dollars across African markets, connecting stablecoin liquidity with local payment needs. Backed by investors including LAVA and Timon Capital, HoneyCoin represents a growing cohort of African companies treating stablecoins as financial infrastructure rather than a speculative asset class. Nandwa belongs on Borderless 100 because East Africa is developing its own stablecoin ecosystem alongside the better-known Nigerian cohort, and HoneyCoin is one of the companies demonstrating that the opportunity is continental.
