Today we had 20 people from different African regions in our @Crack the Orange live call learning about Bitcoin, running nodes and merchant adoption. Looking forward to see the impact of their work over the next years! All students have a scholarship funded by donors of @Bitcoin for Fairness.

My most important talk of 2025: „privacy, self-custody, and permissionlessness are non-negotiable“ My insights from spending the last five years working on Bitcoin education across several African countries. I explain why real adoption requires local solutions, not “adoption theater,” and why privacy, self-custody, and permissionlessness are non-negotiable. I also highlight powerful stories of activists, community builders, and initiatives shaping the future of Bitcoin on the continent.
