How @EFDevcon is treating me right now ๐
African Onchain Collective retweeted
Very happy Devcon 9 is coming to Lisbon ๐ต๐น @EFDevcon is truly one of the best rooms in Ethereum.
But for many of us in Africa, the road to Devcon matters as much as Devcon itself.
India was tough. Many Africans couldnโt make it to Mumbai because of visa issues, especially Nigerians. I barely saw any Nigerian passport holders there, and that hurt to see.
Argentina showed whatโs possible. The government worked with the Devcon team on visas for Devconnect, and so many Africans showed up in Buenos Aires. Thatโs the standard we need for Lisbon.
For Example Ghanaians donโt even have a Portuguese embassy at home, and the Schengen process costs a lot before youโve bought a flight.
My ask to the @EFDevcon team: letโs work with Portugal on a similar visa arrangement, share invitation letters early, and support scholars and speakers through the process, not just with tickets.
Letโs make sure the builders who should be in the room actually get there. We will fly one day ๐

Africa Builders Day had the right room, and the scholar route is the model that works: fund the trip, but make the person come back and build where they were found. The showcase is the easy half. What compounds is what dRPC and AOC do after, plugging those builders into real infrastructure work. That's how the continent stops exporting talent and starts shipping with it.

12/ Getting to Devcon Argentina isn't do-or-die.
But it's an opportunity to:
1. Learn from those building Ethereum's next layers
2. Study what made Argentina work
3. Translate those insights into stories and data that guide Africa's future
Support @AfricanOnchainC . Let's build
