#bondnotes are coming on Monday before the RBZ Act is ammended. So they are potentially illegal @advocatemahere @Wamagaisa @BitiTendai

#BondNotes to arrive Monday. Check the last bit – withdrawal limits arent abt how there's No Cash. They're about promoting cashless society. pic.twitter.com/BDywyrrjmu

For the past 2 weeks I've been thinking of getting a Galaxy A9 but I'll wait a bit. That money might be enough to buy a car in bond notes.😂

#BondNotes will be released before the actual RBZ bill legalizing #BondNotes has been approved by parliament

With the way banks are corrupted, some are gonna be withdrawing thousands of #BondNotes per day & flooding the market

Let's wait & see
