Saving in Bitcoin is not a crime.
Yet, the South African National Treasury is drafting regulations that would potentially make it one.
These vague rules could:
- Ban self-custody of crypto assets.
- Force the sale of private assets to the state.
- Outlaw peer-to-peer transactions.
- Give the Minister arbitrary power to set illegal thresholds without a parliamentary vote.
This is not regulation. It's expropriation.
Big shout out to @PRDG_ZA for organizing the fight.

We are fighting for the right to control our own wealth. #BitcoinEkasi #FinancialInclusion
"Tribe of 21" tour begins in Cape Town, witnessing Bitcoin adoption in Khayelitsha — one of South Africa’s largest townships — where @BitcoinLoxion shows that financial sovereignty starts at the grassroots.
Walk or cycle Khayelitsha Bitcoin Hub, visit Wall of Curiosity, and Igadi Yethemba Community Garden (Garden of Hope). Spend sats at a local spaza or coffee roaster.
We end the day at the V&A Waterfront. Dinner with your tribe caps a journey of stark contrasts — from Khayelitsha’s township streets to the Cape Town harbour’s modern luxury.

Bought a coffee with Bitcoin @sikiskoffeekafe here in Green Point, Cape Town.
Owner, Siki, has a mobile coffee shop here by Curiocity (153 Main Road). It’s just past Ultra Liquors on the left.
Go give them some support.
So inspired by Thulisa, founder of @BitcoinLoxion! 🧡

We just published a recap of Adopting Bitcoin Cape Town 2026.
What stood out most? It wasn’t about price, it was about people actually using Bitcoin and having serious conversations about circular economies and real-world adoption in Africa.
