The 2026 Bitcoin Lì Xì campaign enters distribution stage 🙂
We would like to thank all our donors who helped us fill the Lì Xì for this years campaign - without your support, this community-driven initiative would not be possible to sustain.
Special thanks once again to @Leo for the initial inspiration and ongoing technical support - what started in Hong Kong many years ago has swept over to our community in #Vietnam & been running now for the 5th year in a row!
Furthermore we would like to express special thanks to our sponsors who helped to fill up the funding gap for this years campaign on short notice:
- @Wallet of Satoshi
- @Branta
- @npub1j4lp...wzaa
- @npub1mxer...vjy9
- `ZEUS` Engineering ( )
...where to get your Lì Xì now to orange-pill your friends & family during the upcoming holidays?
Hit up your friendly local Bitcoiner - we'll be equipping our local community members in the days ahead to get the red envelopes into the right hands.

Bitcoin Lì Xì - 2026 Year of the Horse campaign
In Vietnam it is customary to gift money for special occasions, especially Lunar New Year (Tết), weddings and births. The cash is typically enclo...
To redeem the 1,000 Sats - a Lightning Wallet is required. 🙂
For many recipients it might be the first real interaction with Bitcoin.
Want to organize your own Red Envelope campaign in your community?
Full announcement:
As we added some more attractions for the kids, the initial budget estimation was slightly exceeded.
As a result, the community treasury had to cover 77,070 Sats of the event costs from our remaining reserves.
We are grateful for all the support we have received from every donor and sponsor to help making this event possible!
We would like to continue our work in 2026 - so your continued support is highly appreciated!
...post-event about 50% of the budget target got covered by community donations - we thank everyone for participating & supporting to keep the event series going & sustainable 🙏
...walk around the premises to assure everything will be in its place and our vendors & visitors have a good experience 🙏
...and we are currently still behind our budget goals, so if you have some Sats to spare - Saigon Bitcoin community highly appreciates 🙏
...by the masterful 
The event is going into it's 4th iteration & has established itself as public come-together for the wider community in Vietnam.
We purposefully look to connect the "hard core" of the Bitcoin community with people *around* the Bitcoin community who might have not yet "taken the orange pill", but otherwise show aligned ethics & long-term thinking.
Building relationships that compound and viewing the world on a long time horizon.
Doing the right moves and bringing sacrifices today for a better tomorrow.
How can you support your Bitcoin frens in Saigon in this undertaking?
1) Spread the word :-)
If you know people for which this event might be an interesting fit - send'em along
2) Visit!
...if you are in town by chance, come'on by and have a chat with the local Bitcoiner crew assembled!
3) Become a vendor!
...in case you're around town and have sth to offer which might be of good use to some of the community members, get a booth and show what you got :-)
"Remote booths" are also possible - albeit we highly prefer of course if we have the faces behind the works on site as well to have a good chat about what inspires & drives you.
4.) Last but not least:
Donate!
The event is fully run by a volunteer crew of our community, however, there are *still* some modest costs attached to organize the whole event as a pleasant experience for everyone.
Venue rent, various logistical items, tents and a some logistical support for the event setup are affordable in Vietnam - but not free.
...and the kids attractions which we'll have on site also don't pay for themselves :-)
We are currently working on a basis of an estimated budget of 1,000,000 Sats - if you had a good year and have some Sats to spare for your Saigon frens, we would be highly appreciative!

We would like to thank once more all our donors & supporters who helped us to make the third Satoshi Flea Market Saigon possible 🙌
We hope to be back for more around Christmas :)
