As we step into a new phase, we’re restructuring the Bitcoin Africa Story team. Over the past months, we’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and where we need more focus. To move forward sustainably, we’re refining roles, strengthening coordination, and aligning our team around what matters most: grassroots Bitcoin education, real adoption, and African stories that show proof-of-work in action. More updates soon. Thank you for building with us 🧡

We’re stepping into the new year with big plans, new stories, and important announcements ahead. Focused on Bitcoin education, real adoption, and proof-of-work across Africa 🌍 More coming soon... Stay tuned!
