Scaling Bitcoin adoption
Turning Africa orange
Join our hands-on Bitcoin academy designed for Africa. Learn by doing, earn sats, and become part of a growing community of builders.
How It Started: From Bailouts to Blockchain
In 2008, the global financial crisis exposed the fragility of traditional banking. While governments bailed out the banks, ordinary people lost homes, jobs, and savings. Bitcoin was born from this crisis — a decentralized alternative that doesn't require trust in banks or governments.
