Adopting Bitcoin Cape Town - 30 & 31 Jan 2026
All speakers at Adopting Bitcoin Cape Town get a custom branded NFC card, loaded with enough sats to buy a delicious coffee, at the @Airbtc Barista. The cards are reusable and can be loaded with more sats, which can be spent at booths around the venue. Made possible thanks to @Blink Wallet! If people aren't spending sats at your conference, is it really a Bitcoin conference?
