🚨 WE BOUGHT OUR FIRST DOMAIN WITH BITCOIN! 🌐⚡ ➤ No banks ➤ No stress ➤ Just #Bitcoin via the Lightning Network We used Namecheap and funded it with Bitcoin through Bitpay. Generated a Lightning invoice via @Wallet of Satoshi and paid instantly using @Blink Wallet . ⚡ (On-chain via @BTCPay Server was also available — but Lightning felt right.) 🧡 The moment + the feeling? Captured right here 🎥 📺 Watch how it happened: This is Bitcoin being used as money — simple, fast, and borderless. If you value practical use cases like this, feel free to zap ⚡, we’ve got more coming. #BitcoinAfrica #LightningNetwork #UseBitcoin #ProofOfWork

🤔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!
