🤔How Has Bitcoin IMPACTED Your Life As A Person? Bitcoin has IMPACTED life Globally, especially across Africa😲 But still, many don't get it... As for me, Bitcoin has impacted my life BIG TIME! 🚀 Since discovering Bitcoin, I: ⚡️ Now see the world through a new lens ⚡️ Contribute selflessly to its adoption ⚡️ Have built a global network of amazing people ⚡️ Work with global initiatives and get paid instantly in Bitcoin — even when my bank account is frozen! ⚡️Educate and mentor new, curious minds about Bitcoin around the world. ⚡️ Founded @story_bitcoin to educate, empower, and inspire more people through Bitcoin …And that’s just the beginning. 💥 Before Bitcoin, I was SHY. 😶 ⚡️ I couldn’t speak in front of large crowds ⚡️ I struggled to express myself and connect with others But now? ⚡️I continue to speak to new learners from around the world to teach Bitcoin ⚡️I even spoke at a Bitcoin conference in Nigeria 🎤 I'm growing. I'm learning 🧡 And I’m improving — not through paid courses, but by being part of this powerful movement. 🙌 With Bitcoin it can only get better 🫡 That’s why, when the idea came up… We decided to host our very own Bitcoin Twitter Space! A space where anyone can show up, share their experience, and speak from the heart — Not to bluff, but to inspire and empower others. 🧡 But Who's This Space For? It’s for people who: ⚡️ Are hearing the word 'Bitcoin' for the very first time ⚡️ Have heard about it, but still haven’t taken action ⚡️ Believe Bitcoin is for everyone and a tool for social good and empowerment ⚡️ And finally… Its for everyone both New and Old to Bitcoin! So, join us tomorrow (Wednesday) at 4PM WAT to share your story — and be inspired by the stories others will share. 🧡 🗓 Set your reminder now by clicking the Space link below: 👉 https://x.com/i/spaces/1lPKqMRVyPPKb Let’s connect, learn, and grow — together. ⚡️

We dove deep into "WHY BITCOIN"—starting with a revision of our last session, followed by an engaging class activity to explore the Philosophy of Bitcoin and understand how it differs from CBDCs. We also discussed the benefits of Bitcoin and wrapped up with a lively Q&A session. Plus, we made some exciting announcements about our upcoming online graduation and in-person meetup!

They made complex topics simple and clear, ensuring everyone walked away with valuable insights. A huge congratulations to our students for their incredible progress throughout the program! Your dedication and commitment to learning are truly inspiring. 🙌 ➼ Check out these useful resources from the session: - CBDC Tracker (cbdctracker.org) by @HRF: Live stats to examine the global landscape of CBDC adoption and its current stages. - Mempool. space (mempool.space) by @mempool: Track live stats on Bitcoin and Lightning. A massive thank you to @Gabe for an insightful and thought-provoking session, to BlessedDan for co-hosting, and to our amazing guest tutors and educators for their invaluable contributions throughout the program.
