🚐⚡ WHO'S GETTING ON THE BUS? On 28 February 2027, we're leaving Cape Town with a small group of Bitcoiners for six days on the Garden Route. By the time we return, we'll have travelled through Bitcoin communities, met builders and merchants, spent sats, explored South Africa and shared the journey with people who came here for the same reason: Bitcoin. There are only 20 places on the Road Trip. Will one of them be yours? 🇿🇦 📅 28 February – 5 March 2027 ₿ Price: 0.02 BTC More details: za27.adoptingbitcoin.org/roa… 📧 [email protected] #ABCTroadtrip2027 #AdoptingBitcoin #BitcoinAfrica #GardenRoute #Bitcoin

As with anything, there are many things that are overhyped in Bitcoin. BCEs are no different. But I'd say that the biggest issue isn't that they're overhyped, the biggest issue is that BCE founders often don't know what they're getting into. Building a BCE isn't building a company. It's grassroots work. And that sort of work, by definition is a lifetime commitment, for no financial reward. People wanting to build BCEs thinking they'll exit and hand it over in 2 - 3 years, that's the bigger issue.
Are Bitcoin Circular Economies Overhyped...?

Lithabo Mthetho fully committed on an innerpool bomb! 🌊🔥 Lithabo has been part of the TSK family since 2020, and we couldn't be prouder of the progress he's made in his surfing over the years. From putting in the hard work to surfing his way into the U14 Boys' quarterfinals at this year's SA Junior Champs, it's been incredible to watch his journey unfold. The hard work is paying off, and we're super excited to see what the road ahead holds for this young talent! 🤙🏽 Keep charging, Lithabo! 💙🏄🏽‍♂️ #tskperformance #tsksharks

#beta1@blink.sv btcmap.org/merchant/24971 Students attending the Bitcoin diploma class listen attentively to classroom lectures led by an instructor standing at the whiteboard. They then apply their knowledge practically by participating in real-world transactions using Bitcoin cards to make purchases at a local store counter. @BitcoinMoonFund @bolt_card @btcmap

Thank you @LuganoPlanB! What a fantastic conference! It's great seeing Bitcoin Circular Economies represented every year! Project founder @vryfokkenou answered this question in his keynote yesterday: "Why should you care about Bitcoin Circular Economies?" In short: Because BCEs: - demonstrate that Bitcoin is freedom money. - can produce factories that onboard thousands. - educate without complexity. - prove we don't really need stablecoins. - cut through the crypto hype. - introduce spending as a gateway to saving. - demonstrate that Bitcoin is already useful as an MoE. @MoneyBadgerPay @PoW_Checkbot @BitcoinUbuntu
