In my latest for @btcafricastory, I covered @TrezorAcademy Kenya Cohort 8 by @BitEduhub, where participants went from Bitcoin basics to buying sats with @bitika_KE and spending them with @tando_me. 👇
After Day 1 of @TrezorAcademy Kenya Cohort 8, one participant said they had learned "how I can use Bitcoin on my business." 🇰🇪 35 new participants from @KenyattaUni, @DiscoverJKUAT and @kcauniversity joined the cohort, run by @BitEduhub and hosted by @LindaKariu54810. @Graysatoshi of @BitcoinSafariTZ was among the educators who spoke on self-custody. By Session 2, they were buying sats with @bitika_KE, spending them with @tando_me and sending sats around the room. Check the first comment to read the full story. 👇

BCEs are Proof-of -Bitcoin ⚡️
Thank you @LuganoPlanB! What a fantastic conference! It's great seeing Bitcoin Circular Economies represented every year! Project founder @vryfokkenou answered this question in his keynote yesterday: "Why should you care about Bitcoin Circular Economies?" In short: Because BCEs: - demonstrate that Bitcoin is freedom money. - can produce factories that onboard thousands. - educate without complexity. - prove we don't really need stablecoins. - cut through the crypto hype. - introduce spending as a gateway to saving. - demonstrate that Bitcoin is already useful as an MoE. @MoneyBadgerPay @PoW_Checkbot @BitcoinUbuntu

In my latest for @btcafricastory, I covered @Satsforsafari bringing its online Bitcoin graduates together in Kibera, and the guided walk where visitors pay in sats at local shops. 👇 bitcoinafricastory.com/news/…
Seven graduates of @Satsforsafari's online Bitcoin cohorts met in person in Kisumu Ndogo, Kibera, on October 18. Six newcomers hoping to join Cohort 3 came too. 🇰🇪 Founder Susan, a certified @MyFirstBitcoin_ educator, taught both cohorts online. She also leads a three-hour guided walk through Kibera, where visitors pay in sats for tea at a food vendor and airtime or soap at a neighborhood duka. Sats4Safari credited @MercyAloo390115 and @MagakDamiano for the meetup. Check the first comment to read the full story. 👇

Good conversations about Bitcoin shouldn't happen only online. There's value in sitting across from someone, exchanging ideas, asking questions & learning from different perspectives. That's what the Bitcoin Ikorodu Meetup is about. Here's an invitation to our next gathering🧵 – at Ikorudu, Nigeria

In my latest for @btcafricastory, I covered how @geyserfund's circular grants fund Bitcoin merchants in Kenya, starting with a Kibera peanut butter business funded entirely by sats that earlier merchants paid forward. 👇 bitcoinafricastory.com/news/…
Yummy Tummy started in Kibera, Nairobi, with one small pot of peanut butter. Six years on, a team of two has about 60 orders waiting. A $250 circular grant from @geyserfund now lets them buy ingredients and packaging in bulk. It's the first grant funded entirely by sats that earlier merchants paid forward, @AfribitKibera founder Ronnie Mdawida said. Geyser has stopped standard crowdfunding and now focuses on Circular Grants through approved Field Partners like Afribit Kibera and @BitBiashara. These grants carry no interest or fixed repayment; recipients may voluntarily pay forward what they can to support the next business. Three months in, co-founder @metamick14 reports a 22% voluntary forwarding rate. Check the first comment to read the full story. 👇

In my latest for @btcafricastory, I covered the first time leaders of more than a dozen Bitcoin circular economies across Africa met in one room, how each adapted the @Bitcoinbeach model, and what's next in El Zonte. Read the story 👇
In December 2025, leaders of more than a dozen Bitcoin circular economies across Africa sat in one room for the first time. Each had taken the model @Bitcoinbeach started in El Zonte, El Salvador, and adapted it to their own community. Bitcoin Beach's report names 15 projects from nine countries, including Bitcoin Ekasi (@BitcoinEkasi) in a Mossel Bay township, Afribit Kibera (@afribitkibera) in Nairobi and BTC Shule (@btcshule) in a village in Burundi. They met in Mauritius because visa, travel and financial barriers keep many African builders out of global Bitcoin events. @zackdorseyx filmed it. The clips are coming out now, including @thecoachayobami of @BitKwaofficial and @BrindonMwiine of @BitcoinKampala. Next stop: the Global Bitcoin Circular Economies Summit in El Zonte, November 19 and 20, open to the public for the first time. Check the first comment to read the full story. 👇
