Last weekend we had the BitDesigners Meetup in Abuja, and the energy was electric! ⚡
We dove deep into Bitcoin UX, open-source, privacy, and product thinking, plus a live workshop auditing real Bitcoin products.
Here is how it went down: 🧵👇
The closing panel of the Freedom Tech Track at the 2026 @OsloFF brought together @ihate1999, @AnaiseKanimba, @obi, and @waithiraah to discuss one of the most important questions in the bitcoin ecosystem: how do we make bitcoin practical for everyday people?
A key theme throughout the discussion was that Africa represents one of the largest opportunities for bitcoin adoption globally. From payments and savings to financial inclusion and economic freedom, the continent is already demonstrating real-world bitcoin use cases at scale.
The conversation explored how builders, entrepreneurs, and advocates are creating tools that expand freedom, reduce barriers to access, and make bitcoin more useful in people's daily lives.

Nairobi, we’re touching down! 🇰🇪⚡
For Bitcoin to reach the next billion people, it needs exceptional user experience. It needs designers to simplify the complex and make decentralized tools feel natural.
@bitdesigners Africa in collaboration with @DadaDevs is heading to Nairobi to bridge the gap.
Whether you're a seasoned designer, never designed for Bitcoin or just curious about open-source, doesn't matter. Show up curious.
Venue: Blockchain Centre NBO, Nairobi (@BCentreNBO)
Date: Tuesday, June 16th, 2026

#Bitcoin #Design #Opensource
Calling all freedom tech builders! We are seeking volunteers for a live design review at the @OsloFF Making Freedom Tech Beautiful workshop.
Face it. Freedom tech only matters if people can actually use it. Even the most powerful applications fall short if they feel confusing or too technical.
Watch @MouxDesign of @bitcoin_design and our very own @satsie use AI to apply tried and true UX principles and draw inspiration from award winning design. Participants will leave with a Claude skill that preserves the exact process from the workshop.
Make your app as empowering as the decentralized, censorship resistant technology it is built on.
Make it something individuals all over the world can understand, adopt, and rely on.
Builders need not be physically present for the workshop. Priority given to projects funded by @HRF. Does this sound like something you're interested in? Reply to this post or send us a DM!
Proud to have contributed as the graphic designer behind the 6 flyer series for our deep dive into Mastering Bitcoin with BitDesigners Africa.

Thank you our community!🙏
👥170+ people.
🏫3 Institutions.
♾️Orange-pills.
@thetimileyin Ux on those puff-puffs was 10/10.. folks came for the Bitcoin design, stayed for the small chops, pretty solid retention strategy if you ask me🤣😂
🔥 Day 4 of #Hack4Freedom Lagos with @_Satoshee Lead Designer at @afribitcoiners.
A masterclass in Bitcoin's monetary design and why designers hold the key to adoption.
Key takeaways:
🔹 1M Naira saved in 2011 = 115K Naira today. Bitcoin protects against inflation.
🔹 Bitcoin is pseudonymous, not anonymous – debunking myths.
🔹 Mood boarding + conceptual thinking = better Bitcoin products.
Something unprecedented is coming to Nairobi.
For the very first time, the Bitcoin Designers Meetup lands on Kenyan soil.
This is the beginning of something profound: a dedicated space where UI/UX and product designers come together around one powerful question — what does Bitcoin look like when it's truly designed for people?
Brought to life through a collaboration between Dada Devs and @bitdesigners , this meetup is a signal that African designers don't just belong in the Bitcoin conversation, they should be shaping it.
Expect raw, honest conversations. Hands-on workshops. The kind of creative collision that only happens when curious, talented people share a room.
Because the future of Bitcoin isn't just technical, it's human. And it needs designers who think that way.
