The African Bitcoin conference 2024 is set to accelerate the growth of African developers and cryptocurrency adoption in Africa.
The upcoming conference in partnership with BTrust, a non-profit organisation focused on decentralizing the development of Bitcoin software will feature a day for developers across Africa.
The ‘Btrust Developer Day’ which will take place on December 8, 2024, at the JW Marriott Hotel, Nairobi, Kenya aims to offer an exclusive platform for African developers and subject matter experts to explore the immense potential of Bitcoin technology and its applications.
