Visit Circular Economies in South Africa

1-5 Feb 2026 5 days - 6 circular economies!!! Transport, guide & 4 nights hotel accommodation included: $1,200.00

It isn't breaking news. It's just another day in the Bitcoin Ekasi township. People are using sats as if there's nothing strange about it.

Imagine being so clueless that you confuse Bitcoin with beef, mutton, and apples... And then, mere months later, claiming that Bitcoin risks global financial stability. Wait, so Bitcoin = Apples = Beef = Global Financial Instability..? 🫤🫠 You best stop eating apples then. Now imagine such confused person being the governor of a central bank. His name is Lesetja Kganyago, and he's the governor of South Africa's Reserve Bank.

"It doesn't seem like a good system if one, you know, South African-born naturalized American is the only thing standing between us and tyranny." Yeah, Tucker. That's right. It's a really thin thread if you're relying on the goodwill of one person for free speech online... The solution is to not rely on just one person. You need Nostr, you just don't know it yet.

The Surfer Kids' skill levels are going through the roof, so let's have some fun with that!! Every surfer (from our program) that lands their first successful air-reverse (with video evidence) earns 21k sats for their effort. Offer stands for the first 21 surfers only. (We have over 40 kids active in the program, so this will ignite a healthy competitive drive...) We'll keep posting video updates every time a surfer sticks it for the first time! Feel free to reach out if you wanna sponsor 21k sats towards one (or more) successful air-reverse attempts.

Insane progress for merchant adoption! 🤯🤯🤯

Bitcoin Rising – South Africa's Path to Freedom This is the story of ordinary South Africans building circular Bitcoin economies while the fiat system crumbles around them. https://southafricainsight.substack.com/p/the-film-is-here-bitcoin-rising-south

The kids just keep ripping!!! Check that air-reverse attempt, 30 seconds in. 🤯 💥 🔥

Need welding done to install new burglar bars? Wanna pay in sats? Sure, why not...?

The kids are surfing so good! Not to bore you with details, but when watching this, keep in mind that 15 years ago there were zero surfers in this township (slum). And it's taken multiple "generations" to get to this point. These kids in the video are our 3rd of 4th generation, and they're surfing like this because they've had surfing role models from their community to look up to. The thing is, we had to train those role models. They didn't exist when we started. These kids owe their skills to the first generation, the kids that have grown up to become coaches. You only imagine what the next generation is gonna look like...

We're building a grassroots movement to make Bitcoin everyday money on the continent of Africa.
