💥Celebrating Cameroonian Nzonda Fotsing as our #19 Most Impactful African Bitcoiner of 2025! 🇨🇲✨ As the convener of Conférence Bitcoin Afrique, Nzonda has become one of the steady voices driving Bitcoin education across Francophone Africa. Through his conference and the much-loved Bitcoin Kids book, he is helping families, schools, and communities understand money in a practical, relatable way. In 2025, Nzonda’s work reached even further. He published important articles on Bitcoin regulation for the Financial Market Supervisory Commission of Central Africa, expanded Kids Bitcoin into French, Pidgin English, Xhosa, and Hindi (with Zulu and Korean coming soon), contributed a module on African Bitcoin adoption to Citrusate’s diploma course, and supported school clubs like Bitcoin Africa Story with book donations and learning materials.

💼When Saving Feels Like Sinking In some places, saving money feels like trying to hold water in your hands.🤲 Prices rise. Currencies lose value. People work harder and get less. This isn’t just bad luck — it’s the design of broken systems. That's why we are on a mission to educate on Bitcoin as the freedom money. It’s not about speculation. It’s about survival.
African currencies have been quietly losing value year after year, and most of us only notice it when our money buys less at the market. That’s why we built the Inflation Simulator, to help you see the numbers for yourself. Run the simulation and discover how your local currency has performed against Bitcoin over time. 🔗
Africa Women’s Day There is nothing more powerful than a woman on a mission, and African women in Bitcoin are proving it every single day.

Your courage, resilience, and vision for a freer Africa inspire us all. Here’s to you, the women changing money, and changing the world. image
