Afribit Kibera's goal is to enhance the Bitcoin circular economy by educating and onboarding merchants, as well as promoting Bitcoin adoption. The ultimate objective is to establish a community bank driven by the Galoy stack.
A huge thank you to @Blink Wallet for making it possible to sit down with 24 brilliant young moms from Tumaini Dada Initiative.
They didn't just learn about Bitcoin they experienced it
They downloaded @Blink Wallet , officially became their own banks
To make it real, we sent them their first Sats


Youths are building online businesses with Bitcoin! Showing how creativity + Bitcoin = freedom & ownership. We spotlight young merchants like her because every Sat earned grows inclusion, resilience & community power.

Niko na Sats Niko Satisfied ( I have Sats I am Satisfied )
by @Pacs 3w from Kibera the song promotes bitcoin usage , bitcoin circular economy and saving in Bitcoin see youtube link
For 1.5+ years, the Usafi Boys have built a Sats treasury from trash Earning, SPEDNing, and stacking sats from recycling profits.11 members graduated from @thecore21m + @trezoracademy @npub1llkv...ftee and are teaching others P2P, while building our BCE.
Banking the unbanked isn't a slogan. It's everyday life in Kibera.
This is what financial freedom looks like, powered by Bitcoin. Witness the real-world transactions changing lives.
# SPEDN
Unbanked. Not Unbitcoined.
#SPEDN
We SPEDN, we HODL, and when the DIP hits, we BUY. Bitcoin’s volatility is our second chance like @npub1ee6m...tfcv reminded us, we never waste it.


The Bitcoin circular economy is thriving, with more youth stacking sats for a sovereign future.
One rule stands above all: Your Keys, Your Bitcoin.
Be your own bank, your freedom depends on it.

In the heart of Kibera, Nairobi, a powerful shift is happening. Roadside vegetable stands are now accepting Bitcoin, bringing financial access to the unbanked.
This is real-world adoption, not speculation. Experts warn of risks, but can the risks of the current system be any greater? See BBC link
BCE's fights poverty by stopping the financial bleed. We turn communities into self-sustaining hubs of production, not just consumption. By creating local exporters, we keep wealth circulating to build legacies of financial sovereignty. It starts with a simple cycle: In Kibera, we earn, spend, and replace #SPEDN
WHEN SATS STAY LOCAL, COMMUNITIES RISE.
Meet the youth of Kibera.
Here, Bitcoin isn't hype.
It's real money for real needs.
It buys supplies. It builds futures.
It keeps wealth where it belongs:
In their hands.
We see you. We honor you.
This is how the world changes.
One sat at a time.

We truly enjoyed hosting @BTC Shule from Burundi in Kibera! Thank you for taking the time to connect, learn, and exchange ideas with us.
OUR Economy, OUR Rules, OUR Future!
Over the weekend , we unlocked REAL Bitcoin power – face-to-face, right here in our community.We didn’t just talk about "Bitcoin" We built the foundation for Kibera’s OWN circular Bitcoin economy:
Taught 30+ neighbors to send/receive sats on Lightning wallets (fees cheaper than M-Pesa!)
Connected 4 local vendors ready to accept BTC for chapatis, repairs & phone credit
Solved problems TOGETHER: How to cash out small sats? Peer to Peer
Why THIS matters for Kibera:
No Banks Needed: We moved value peer-to-peer – no delays, no limits, no gatekeepers. Inflation-Proof Savings: Learned how Bitcoin protects our hard-earned shillings.
Real Ownership: Your keys = YOUR money. Not the state’s. Not a corporation’s. OURS.
This interview captures some of our thoughts in depth

How Bitcoin Adoption Is Transforming Life in Kibera as a Medium of Exchange—Afribit Founder Ronnie Mdawida Explains
Bitcoin is gaining ground in Kibera, Kenya’s largest informal settlement, where locals now use BTC for food, water, and daily essentials. AfriBit...
@Heinz we need some Germany language lessons ❤️
Kibera’s women are taking charge by using Bitcoin, sharing knowledge, and lifting each other up. Circulating Bitcoin within the community builds collective strength over time, fostering financial inclusion and independence. True freedom and sovereignty begin when women claim their own worth.
#Spedn
In Kibera, Bitcoin isn’t just talk, it's how we live. We buy, sell, pay, and even save in Bitcoin. Every single day. Zero fees. No middlemen. Protected from inflation. This is real financial freedom on the ground.
