What was the coolest thing you did with Bitcoin last year?

Today, on #WorldBrailleDay, we honor the legacy of Louis Braille and the empowering language that opens doors to education, independence, and opportunity for millions of blind and visually impaired people worldwide. Let’s keep pushing for accessibility and inclusion in Bitcoin education to ensure no one is left behind.

On this day in 2009, the Bitcoin Genesis Block was mined with Satoshi's powerful message: 'The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks.' 16 years later, Bitcoin continues to stand for financial freedom, decentralization, and sovereignty.

Happy New Year, African Bitcoiners! 🎉 Here’s to another year of building and growing Bitcoin across Africa. We’re so excited for the opportunities and progress this new year will bring for all of us. Let’s make it amazing!

Some say they can’t save Bitcoin because it’s “too expensive.” 🤔 The truth? You don’t need to buy a whole Bitcoin. Satoshis (sats) are affordable, and you can start saving with as little as $1! Learn how to stack sats in our Million Sat Savings Challenge: https://bitcoiners.africa/save-section/million-sat-challenge/

If Satoshi returned today and made one tweet, what would it say? 🤔The last comment wins 1,000 sats!
