Last year, we put out a global call for new Btrust Board members as part of a planned governance transition. Today, we’re excited to welcome @laurenceaderemi, @nduku_jay, and @brrrunog as the new Btrust Board of Directors. After a thoughtful and rigorous selection process, they now assume full governance responsibilities as the inaugural board completes its mandate. Each brings deep experience across Bitcoin infrastructure, open‑source development, and energy systems, and will help guide Btrust’s mission to decentralize Bitcoin development and expand opportunities for builders across the Global South.

This past Saturday, we had the pleasure of attending the soft launch of @NodeNBO. 🎉 Node NBO brings together people working across AI, energy and freedom technology under one roof, creating room for new ideas and collaborations to emerge. Our CEO, @ihate1999, joined the launch and shared a few thoughts on the opportunity ahead.

Join us on Wednesday, 20th May, for a Twitter Space as we celebrate the Q1 Builders Pathways cohorts and explore what it takes to get started in the Bitcoin open-source ecosystem.🎉 We’ll unpack lessons from the pathways, highlight the progress builders have made, and discuss the next steps for anyone looking to grow from learner to contributor.
