UPDATE:
After surveying over 10 remote villages on both western and eastern Sumba, we are launching a mini Waypoint that will provide batteries, water, and limited ice and free wifi to a village in western Sumba. Along with proof of work mining on extra energy, this Waypoint will demonstrate the most complete e-ecosystem concept before the Djibouti Waypoint.
