Bitcoin is not coming to Nairobi; it has already been here 🔥
The Bitcoin Nairobi Conference, happening for the first time in East Africa, is bringing together curious minds from policymakers and banks to bitcoiners and non-coiners to learn, connect, and participate in the growing Bitcoin movement.
One of the highlights of the conference is the Bitcoin Circular Economy Day, where attendees will visit the Afribit Kibera Bitcoin Circular Economy and see firsthand how people are using and interacting with Bitcoin in their daily lives.
This conference is led by @AfribitKibera and @GorillaSats, with partners including @TrezorAcademy, @CapitalFMKenya, @bitika_KE, @tando_me, Talo, and many more.
The conference will be held at ASK Dome, Nairobi, and there will be lots of Bitcoin activities and pre-events.
To learn more about the conference, follow @btcnairobi_conf.

🧑💻@nagasha_'s path into Bitcoin open source is anything but ordinary. She began her career as a civil engineer, explored technology on the side, and followed her curiosity into a completely new world.
That curiosity led her to @BitDevsKLA 🇺🇬, the @btrust_builders program, and eventually to a full-time role contributing to @lightningpolar.
In our latest grantee spotlight, Jemimah shares how the journey unfolded, what she learned along the way, and why Bitcoin has room for people from many different backgrounds.
If you have ever wondered how people make the jump into Bitcoin open source, this is one story you will want to read.

Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day from all of us at Orphans of Uganda Children’s Center! 🍕🧡
Today we celebrate the historic moment when Bitcoin was first used to buy pizza, a small transaction that changed the world forever. What started with two pizzas became a movement bringing hope, freedom, and opportunities to people across the globe.
Here in Uganda, Bitcoin has helped us feed orphans, support education, buy building materials, and continue working toward completing a safe home for vulnerable children. Every satoshi shared with love has made a real difference in the lives of our boys and girls.
As the world celebrates Bitcoin Pizza Day, we send our gratitude to the amazing Bitcoin community for standing with us and proving that Bitcoin is not just technology, it is hope in action.
May your day be filled with joy, pizza, and the spirit of generosity. 🍕⚡
Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day to the whole world from Orphans of Uganda Children’s Center! 🌍🧡

From 10,000 BTC pizzas… to Bitcoin Nairobi 2026.
What started as two pizzas in 2010 is slowly becoming parallel economic infrastructure across the world. Not through slogans. Through everyday trade.
Every merchant accepting sats.
Every circular economy.
Every small payment settled without permission.
Every Kenyan saving in a money that cannot be inflated away.
Slice by slice, a new system is emerging beside the old one.
And Nairobi is becoming one of the kitchens where it’s being built. 🍕⚡️
Join us at the Conference June 24–25, 2026.
Policy. Energy. Banking. AI. Circular economies. Sovereignty. Real adoption.
The first Bitcoin pizza purchase was 10,000 BTC.
At today’s prices, those two pizzas would be worth well over $1 billion.
Not because pizza changed.
Because money did.”

We've come a long way! From the first purchase with bitcoin in 2010, to hundreds of pie-shaped bitcoin economies across the globe. Bitcoin purchases are removing slices.... from the fiat system bite by bite. Honored to be in the kitchen cookin with y'all!🍕

Trust me the story sounds simple and straight forward but the journey has been a touching one, full of learning and endurance.
I remember the first visit with Brindon, @mpumwiredith and @satsstacker, realizing ohh…, the orphans actually exist.
That was actual fuel.

A Bitcoin school exists in rural Bugiri that should not be possible. 100+ children. 4 classroom blocks. 22 staff. Paid for almost entirely in sats. The story starts with 34 strangers and a single plane ticket in May 2023. I opened a @geyserfund campaign asking 5.9M sats for a flight to @BTCPrague. Thirty-four people sent it in. I got on the plane. At the Circular Economies booth in Prague, I was challenged: bring Bitcoin home. Use it for the things money is actually for. Not slogans. I went back to Uganda looking for the place that test would land hardest. I found it in Bugiri. An orphanage called @orphansofuganda . 77 children. No electricity. No plates. No toothbrushes. The only school within 10 kilometres — Starlight Elementary — was about to close after a district inspector flagged it below ministry standard. We did not buy the school first. We signed an MOU. Administered it for 18 months. Earned the right to be trusted with it. Then acquired the title. Four classroom blocks went up. Every load of cement was paid for in Bitcoin. Every tile. Every can of paint. The older students who plastered and sanded and carried were paid in sats for their hours on site. A muralist(@dennis_kasagga) moved onto the campus and stayed. By February 2026, the school was open. Three videos compress the journey 👇 THE PITCH: the campaign video that started it all: youtu.be/dElKw40qpwY BEFORE: watch the small boy who introduces himself as "Mr. Bitcoin" and defines it on camera as "the digital currency": youtu.be/-v5MKQq0Cls AFTER: the same campus today: youtu.be/VrCJiX5CF8M The long version: brindonmwiine.com/posts/bitcoin-… @Bitcoinbeach @BitcoinBeachBR @Trezor @TrezorAcademy @geyserfund @BitcoinEkasi there is no Starlight without you.
