🎓 Final Session – Bitcoin Diploma Cohort 4 Yesterday, we wrapped up our journey with a deep, practical session on how to get started with Bitcoin in your personal life, business, community, and career. _ Here’s what we covered: 👇 1. Implementing Bitcoin Personally → Use Bitcoin for spending, saving & long-term value. → Try multiple wallets to find what works best for you. → Support Bitcoin adoption with your everyday choices. Bitcoin isn’t just a store of value — it’s a way of life. _ 2. For Businesses → Accept Bitcoin using tools like @npub155m2...dcvg or a trusted Bitcoin-only wallet of choice. → Use wallets like @Blink Wallet (supports StableSats) & Aqua wallet for volatility concerns. Bitcoin is not just a reserve asset — it’s a working tool. _ 3. For Communities → Host Bitcoin workshops & meetups. → Encourage local merchants to accept ₿itcoin. → Translate Bitcoin content into local languages. → Introduce Bitcoin in schools and youth programs. → Support local ₿itcoin projects. Bitcoin grows where the community is strong. _ 4. For Developers → Integrate Bitcoin APIs in apps & websites. → Contribute to open-source: Bitcoin core, Lightning Network, @Fedi → Build better UX/UI tools and secure wallets. Your code = Your Proof of Work. _ 5.

Earn rewards. Simple. _ 6. Your Distribution Channel = X (for now) → Share value consistently → Document your ₿ journey → Ask questions, teach others → Avoid spam & clickbait → Build trust, not hype Focus on Building over Signal, not noise. _ 7. Starting Your Own Bitcoin Project → Use X to build visibility → Learn from Bitcoin-only hubs: @Bitcoin Africa Story | @npub1ghhh...vnj2 | @My First Bitcoin | Trezor Academy → Use @Geyser for Bitcoin crowdfunding → Partner with local devs, educators & storytellers Don’t rush.

We just wrapped up our session at the Youth Program with Altar of Mercy Ministries 🙌🏾 We introduced Bitcoin by first addressing the real problems — then showed how it’s already offering practical solutions for youths across Africa and invited them to join the Movement. Due to bad weather and time constraints, we couldn’t cover everything 💛 We keep building ⚡️ A powerful and inspiring experience. Photos & more updates dropping soon! #BitcoinAfricaStory #BitcoinForYouth #BitcoinEducation

🚨 WE BOUGHT OUR FIRST DOMAIN WITH BITCOIN! 🌐⚡ ➤ No banks ➤ No stress ➤ Just #Bitcoin via the Lightning Network We used Namecheap and funded it with Bitcoin through Bitpay. Generated a Lightning invoice via @Wallet of Satoshi and paid instantly using @Blink Wallet . ⚡ (On-chain via @npub155m2...dcvg was also available — but Lightning felt right.) 🧡 The moment + the feeling? Captured right here 🎥 📺 Watch how it happened: This is Bitcoin being used as money — simple, fast, and borderless. If you value practical use cases like this, feel free to zap ⚡, we’ve got more coming. #BitcoinAfrica #LightningNetwork #UseBitcoin #ProofOfWork
