BitPesa has been getting a lot of flack from M-Pesa and they taking this fight to court. M-Pesa {not a Bitcoin based technology} have had the upper

hand and a monopoly before Bitcoin in Kenya. They want to hold onto this centralized power and the income they receive from the mobile digital

payment method. Once more people see the advantages Bitcoin has over M-Pesa they will switch on their own. { A centralized network like M-Pesa are

being controlled by corporate companies and these companies are controlled by the governments where they operate. }  Bitcoin gives them the control,

not some centralized entity. }
