Day one of the #BtrustGathering began with an engaging opening plenary by Stephanie Titcombe, followed by the state of Btrust address from our CEO,
@Abubakar Nur Khalil, who shared a thoughtful year‑in‑review, key milestones from 2025, and the outlook for 2026.
The morning continued with the 2025 program reports, where
@Btrust Builders,
@npub13s0k...5g70,
@npub1m495...u22l, and Libreria de Satoshi presented updates on their work, growth, and the impact they’ve created in supporting open‑source Bitcoin development across the Global South.
In the afternoon, participants joined cross‑organization working groups to explore opportunities for collaboration on joint programs, developer connectivity, localization, and technical cooperation.
Discussions also covered shared initiatives, developer exchange and communication, grants and sustainability, as well as community growth, storytelling, and brand alignment.
These sessions were energetic and idea‑driven, with groups sharing thoughtful outputs that reflected the strength of cross‑community collaboration.
The day captured the essence of what the gathering stands for; connection, transparency, and collective progress.
It was a powerful reminder of how much can be achieved when builders from across the Global South come together to advance open‑source Bitcoin development.
