⚽ It’s kicked off! Today the first ever Bitcoin UX Bootcamp right in Kenya. Today 10 African UX designers sat together and had a journey of learning and collaboration 🌟 We learnt about UX Design Principles specific to Bitcoin, UX research, Bitcoin Development philosophy. Next to that students got hands on doing desk research and each group is assigned to an African Bitcoin wallet which they will be conducting usability testing on. 🍃 Thank you to Femi for the presentation about Bitcoin Development philosophy and to CK for always showing up and connecting with the students. Thank you Marcel for the support in operations and logistics. Also to Mark for the help with setting up the usability testing structure which the students will be doing on 5 African built wallets. A big thank you to HRF for supporting this initiative. Many resources from the Bitcoin Design Community have been used in the bootcamp such as the Bitcoin Design Guide, Open Design Guide & UX Research toolkit. 🌟Last but not least to the students, without you this would not be possible. Super inspiring to see all of these people making Africa shine.
