Then we went hands-on We successfully set up our community Bitcoin full node using Umbrel a big step toward decentralization and sovereignty. Huge thanks to everyone who participated 🔥 And trust us… the next sessions will be even more exciting

Bitcoin isn’t just an asset, it’s an open network that anyone can verify and help secure. BitDevs Yaounde is where we move from theory to practice, and build together cc @umbrel

Umbrel is here At BitDevs Yaounde #2, we’ll use it to set up a community Bitcoin full node, a real step toward strengthening how Bitcoin is understood and used in our ecosystem
