Today marks Bitcoin Pizza Day! On May 22, 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz made history by demonstrating Bitcoin's power as an exchange of value, purchasing two pizzas with 10,000 Bitcoins. From those two pizzas, Bitcoin exploded into the global digital asset it is today, still rocking as a decentralized way to exchange value. So, grab some pizza and tell a friend about this epic day! And keep an eye out for where fellow Bitcoiners in your country are celebrating! image

Letโ€™s be honest; is it even a Bitcoin event if Paul Eke isnโ€™t on the mic? We were so happy to have the one and only Paul Eke, founder of BLOCC, as our MC at the Kaduna Bitcoin Summit powered by @Btrust Paul brought the perfect balance of energy, education, and entertainment. And of course, true to form, he came through as the only MC who does live sats giveaways; because why not earn while you learn? Big love to Paul for making the summit unforgettable. We see you, we celebrate you! ๐Ÿงก
Session Seven: Bitcoin vs Altcoins; A Panel That Pulled No Punches ๐Ÿ”ฅ The most powerful moment of the Kaduna Bitcoin Summit powered by @Btrust came in the seventh session, a bold and unfiltered panel discussion on Bitcoin vs Altcoins. Satoshee sat with some of the brightest minds and builders in the space; @Abubakar Nur Khalil Theophilus Isah, OnionsMan and Megasley. Each panelist brought a unique perspective, but the message was unified and strong: Bitcoin stands apart from every other cryptocurrency. And in the end, the takeaway was simple but profound: โ€œStudy Bitcoin for yourself. Then study other cryptos. And choose for yourself.โ€ This defining session was made possible by the continued support of @Btrust IPayBTC, and @Africa Free Routing thank you for empowering conversations that matter.
What Mava cannot pay does not exist! That was the energy in the sixth session of the Kaduna Bitcoin Summit powered by @Btrust led by none other than Theophilus Isah , CEO of Mavapay and Mavapay Money. Theophilus gave an incredible session, breaking down the power behind Mavapay; a seamless solution enabling fast, cross-border Bitcoin payments. After laying the foundation, he wowed the crowd with a live demo. Mavapay can now also send money from Nigeria to South Africa in seconds! And just when we thought weโ€™d seen it all, he teased major news on the horizon, but only those of us at the summit got the gist.๐Ÿคญ This electrifying session was made possible thanks to the trust and support of @Btrust , IPayBTC, and @Africa Free Routing who continue to champion African-led Bitcoin innovation.
Session Five: IpayBTC Demo with Inedu Joshua In the fifth session of the Kaduna Bitcoin Summit powered by @Btrust Inedu Joshua of IPayBTC took the stage to showcase their powerful Bitcoin payment solution. He walked us through a live demo of the IPayBTC platform, showing how simple it is for African businesses and individuals to accept Bitcoin. What truly amazed the audience were the staggering numbers IPayBTC has pulled since inception a clear sign that adoption is not just possible, itโ€™s happening. This impactful session was brought to life thanks to the support of @Btrust , IPayBTC, and @Africa Free Routing champions of Bitcoin-powered progress in Africa.
Session Four: The African Bitcoin Ecosystem; Through the Faces Behind the Map The fourth session of the Kaduna Bitcoin Summit powered by @Btrust took a refreshing turn. Instead of focusing on the map, Sarah White delivered an inspiring talk on the faces behind the African Bitcoin ecosystem, the real people driving change across the continent. She reminded us that Bitcoin in Africa is mostly about people solving problems and making a difference through Bitcoin. Her message was clear and bold: Donโ€™t just complain about the problems around you, Donโ€™t be the problem. Be the solution. This moment, like the rest of the summit, was made possible by the unwavering support of @Btrust IPayBTC, and @Africa Free Routing thank you for backing real impact.
Session Three: Fireside Chat with Abubakar Nur Khalil โ€“ Exploring Opportunities in the Bitcoin Space ๐Ÿ”ฅ In the third session of the Kaduna Bitcoin Summit powered by @Btrust , we sat down for an inspiring fireside chat with @Abubakar Nur Khalil , a pioneer in Africaโ€™s Bitcoin ecosystem. Abubakar emphasized that you donโ€™t have to be a developer to contribute to Bitcoin. Whether youโ€™re skilled in writing, art, education, community building, or anything else, your talent is valuable. Hone your craft and bring it into the space; Bitcoin needs all of us. A session full of wisdom, encouragement, and practical insight that left many thinking: โ€œHow can I start contributing today?โ€ This session, and the entire summit, was made possible by the trust and support of @Btrust , IpayBTC, and @Africa Free Routing
Session Two: Bitcoin Savings & Choosing the Right Wallet In the second session of the Kaduna Bitcoin Summit powered by @Btrust @Megasley guided attendees through the essentials of Bitcoin savings and how to choose the right Bitcoin wallet. He broke down the dangers of saving in fiat and highlighted the power of saving in Bitcoin as a path to long-term financial freedom. Participants left with a clear understanding of different wallet types and how to secure their sats safely. This summit was made possible by the trust and support of @Btrust IPayBTC, and @Africa Free Routing Weโ€™re grateful for their commitment to driving Bitcoin education and empowerment across Africa.
Kaduna Bitcoin Summit Powered by Btrust! What a Day! The first session of our just-concluded Kaduna Bitcoin Summit, led by Satoshee, was a true highlight.
