Trezor Academy Nairobi, Kenya 🇰🇪 was absolutely amazing and truly inspiring!

I am so happy and deeply honored to have been part of Trezor Academy as an Educator today at Senate Hotel, Juja. What a powerful day of learning, networking, and building the future with the Kenya University & Juja plebs community, exploring the heart of Bitcoin SELF-CUSTODY.

We had a full deep dive into Manna Bitcoin Wallet, and I showed why it is one of the best wallets for real adoption. Manna is a 100% self-custodial, open-source, and Bitcoin-only wallet. No email, no ID, no personal data needed. You own your private keys, you own your coins.

We walked through everything step by step: how to download Manna, how to create your wallet securely, how to safely backup your 12 words, how to send and receive Bitcoin, and how to orange pill new people with confidence.

Then we explored ALL the features found inside Manna Wallet, nothing left behind:

1. True Self-Custody & Security: Complete control with private keys you hold, with encrypted backups.

2. Triple Payment Support: Supports On-chain Bitcoin, Lightning Network for instant low-fee payments, and Liquid Network.

3. Lightning-Fast: Near-instant transactions with minimal fees, perfect for daily use.

4. Integrated Merchant Toolkit: You can create a store in less than 60 seconds and start accepting Bitcoin. Built-in Point-of-Sale (POS) mode designed for small businesses and vendors.

5. BTC Merchant Map: Discover nearby businesses, shops, and ATMs that accept Bitcoin.

6. Encrypted Chat: End-to-end encrypted messaging to chat privately with your contacts while transacting.

7. Contact Management: Save and organize frequent contacts for instant payments and messaging.

8. Pure Bitcoin Focus: No altcoins, no stablecoins noise, just Bitcoin.

9. Simple Yet Advanced: Simple enough for a beginner, robust enough for companies and organizations. Plus live price chart and portfolio view.

It was a beautiful session full of questions, practicals, and real adoption.

Massive thank you to Linda and the entire BitSaverHub team for the invitation and great respect. It was a great and happy time to be with you today!

HAPPY NYERERE DAY 2026! 🇹🇿

Today, 14th October, Tanzania remembers a giant. Mwalimu Julius Kambarage Nyerere the Father of our Nation, the teacher of freedom.

Mwalimu fought three enemies: Ignorance, Poverty, and Disease. His weapon was Elimu ( Education ) .

At BitcoinSafariTz , we believe his mission is still alive. Today, ignorance is financial ignorance. Poverty is lack of access. And the cure is still education Digital Financial Education.

Mwalimu taught us ( Kujitegemea ) Self-Reliance. Bitcoin is the new tool for economic self-reliance. It is money for the people, by the people, owned by the people. No middleman. No permission.

That is why we say: "Bitcoin is the new class of economic liberation."

We continue his legacy, not with slogans, but with skills. We teach every Tanzanian how to save, send, and own their future through Bitcoin.

Let's carry on Mwalimu's light.

Elimu ndio Ukumbwao.

Great , let's have 1 for Tanzania 😊😊

Leo Tujifunze kuhusu Bitcoin ATM 🏧 Iliyopo Kenya, Nairobi - Two Rivers Mall

Wana BitcoinSafari, leo historia inaandikwa mbele ya macho yetu. Katika jiji la Nairobi, ndani ya Mall kubwa na ya kifahari ya Two Rivers Mall, Ground Floor, kati ya duka la Levi's na LC Waikiki , tumefanikiwa kuona kitu ambacho miaka mitatu iliyopita tulikiona kama ndoto.

Bitcoin ATM ya kwanza ya Kenya, yenye rangi ya chungwa inayong'aa, iliyowekwa na timu ya @BanklessBitcoin .

Hii si ATM ya kawaida. Hii ni daraja kati ya shilingi ya mfukoni mwako na fedha ya mtandao ya kesho.

Inafanya kazi vipi kwa mwananchi wa kawaida?

1. Kununua Bitcoin: Huhitaji akaunti ya benki au Binance. Unakuja na pesa taslimu zako za kenya shilling . Unachukua simu yako, unafungua wallet yako (kama Manna, Phoenix, au Muun). Mashine inakupa QR code, una-scan, unaweka pesa taslimu, na ndani ya dakika chache, Bitcoin inaingia moja kwa moja kwenye simu yako. Ajabu zaidi, unaweza kuanza na kiasi chochote unachotaka .!

2. Kuuza Bitcoin: Una Bitcoin kwenye simu yako na unahitaji pesa taslimu? Unatuma Bitcoin kwenye anwani ya mashine, na mashine inakutapikia KSH taslimu papo hapo. Inafanya kazi kwa mtandao wa kawaida wa Bitcoin (on-chain).

Kwa nini hii ni kubwa kwa Afrika Mashariki?

Mashine hii imewekwa kimkakati pembeni ya ATM za benki kubwa kama NCBA. Ni ujumbe mzito. Inasema, "Bitcoin sasa iko sawa na benki." Imewekwa wakati Kenya imepitisha sheria mpya ya VASP Act (Novemba 4, 2025) . Benki Kuu ya Kenya (CBK) na CMA wamesema bado hakuna kampuni iliyopewa leseni rasmi, lakini ukweli ni kwamba miundombinu ishaanza kuwekwa kabla ya sheria. Hii ni fursa.

Kwa sisi Watanzania, tunajifunza nini? Kesho mashine kama hii itakuja Mlimani City, Dar. Swali ni, wewe utakuwa umejiandaa kuitumia au utabaki kuitazama tu? Elimu ya kujihifadhi mwenyewe (self-custody) ndiyo ufunguo.

Tanzania tuamke na kujifunza zaidi kutoka kwa wenzetu majirani .

#BitcoinKenya #TwoRiversMall #BanklessBitcoin #ElimuYaBitcoin #BitcoinTanzania

Leo Tujifunze Zaidi Kuhusu PlanB.network na Namna Watanzania Tunavyoweza Kufaidika

Ndugu yangu, unataka kujifunza Bitcoin kwa kina, bure kabisa, bila utapeli wa "tuma $100 upate $1000"? Basi leo nakuletea chuo kikuu cha Bitcoin duniani.

PlanB.network ni nini? ni chuo kikuu cha mtandaoni (open-source university) kilichojengwa na wanafunzi wa zamani wa Plan ₿ Summer School Lugano, Uswisi. Ni jukwaa kubwa la elimu ya Bitcoin, blockchain na teknolojia huria lililotengenezwa kwa ajili ya dunia nzima, na ni BURE 100% .

Kuna nini ndani?

1. Kozi Za Kina (Courses): Kuna kozi zaidi ya 40+. Kuanzia BTC 101 kwa mgeni kabisa, mpaka kozi ngumu za Uundaji wa Wallet, Lightning Network, Cryptography, Mining, na Ukuzaji wa Programu (Development). Kila kozi ina video, maandishi, na mtihani.

2. Tutorials za Vitendo: Utajifunza kwa vitendo - Jinsi ya kufunga node yako, jinsi multisig inavyofanya kazi, jinsi ya kutengeneza wallet ya baridi.

3. Cheti Cha Kimataifa: Ukimaliza kozi, unapata cheti cha kidigitali chenye uthibitisho kwenye blockchain ya Bitcoin. Hiki kinaweza kukusaidia kupata kazi kwenye makampuni ya crypto duniani.

4. Lugha na Jumuiya: Jukwaa lipo kwa lugha nyingi na lina jumuiya ya wanafunzi zaidi ya 30,000 duniani kote. Unaweza kujifunza kwa Kiswahili pia kwenye baadhi ya sehemu.

Faida kwa Mtanzania?

Tatizo letu Tanzania si kukosa Bitcoin, ni kukosa ELIMU SAHIHI. http://PlanB.network inakupa elimu iliyo sawa na anayepata mwanafunzi Uswisi, bila kulipia hata shilingi. Badala ya kulipia kozi za uongo za forex Instagram, unaweza kujisomea wewe mwenyewe, kuelewa Bitcoin kwa undani, na kuwa mwalimu kwa wengine kijijini kwako.

Hii ndiyo njia ya kutengeneza ajira kuwa fundi wa Lightning, fundi wa node, au mwalimu wa Bitcoin.

Nenda leo: planb.network - Fungua account, anza na kozi ya "Bitcoin 101".

#PlanBNetwork #ElimuYaBitcoin #BitcoinTanzania #JifunzeBitcoin

Leo Tujifunze Kuhusu Kitabu cha Bitcoin Kids

Wazazi wengi Tanzania tunauliza, "Mtoto wangu wa miaka 7 atajifunza vipi Bitcoin?" Jibu liko hapa, katika kitabu kinachoitwa Bitcoin Kids Book ..

Hiki si kitabu cha kawaida. Hiki ni kitabu kilichoandikwa na Mwalimu wa Kiafrika kutoka Cameroon, Nzonda Fotsing Sr (anayejulikana kama Bitcoin Sophist) , mtu ambaye amejitolea kufundisha watoto wa Afrika elimu ya fedha kupitia hadithi za familia.

Kitabu kinafundisha nini?

Kitabu kimeandikwa kwa lugha rahisi sana, yenye picha za rangi zinazovutia watoto wenye umri wa miaka 5 hadi 14. Badala ya maneno magumu ya cryptography, mwandishi anatumia mfano wa familia: Baba, Mama na watoto wawili wanajifunza pamoja.

1. Pesa ni nini? Watoto wanaelezwa kwa nini pesa ya karatasi inapoteza thamani (mfumuko wa bei) na kwa nini Bitcoin ina jumla ya milioni 21 tu na haiwezi kuchapishwa na serikali.

2. Akiba na Matumizi: Kinawafundisha watoto tofauti kati ya kutumia na kuwekeza. Jinsi ya kuweka akiba ya sats kidogo kidogo.

3. Usalama wa Kidigitali: Watoto wanajifunza kuhusu funguo (private keys), wallet, na kwa nini usimwambie mtu yeyote maneno yako 12 ya siri.

4. Vitendo: Kitabu kina michezo, maswali ya kujipima na mazoezi ya kutengeneza wallet ya karatasi pamoja na mzazi.

Kwa nini ni muhimu kwa Mtanzania?

Sisi tulikulia tukifundishwa "soma upate kazi". Watoto wetu wanatakiwa wafundishwe "soma uunde pesa yako mwenyewe". Kitabu hiki kinamjengea mtoto akili ya uhuru wa kifedha tangu akiwa mdogo. Hakifundishi utapeli wa trading, kinafundisha misingi ya uhuru. Ukimnunulia mtoto wako kitabu hiki leo, unamfungulia mlango wa kuwa msanidi programu, mwekezaji au mwalimu wa Bitcoin kesho.

Inapatikana kama kitabu halisi na pia mtandaoni kwenye http://thebitcoinkids.com.

#BitcoinKids #ElimuYaWatoto #TheBitcoinKids #UhuruWaKifedha #BitcoinTanzania

Leo Tujifunze Zaidi Kuhusu Neno "My Keys, My Coins" Not Your Keys, Not Your Coins

Katika ulimwengu wa Bitcoin, kuna msemo mmoja maarufu unaosema: "Not Your Keys, Not Your Coins" na kwa Kiswahili chetu sisi tunasema "Funguo Zangu, Sarafu Zangu - My Keys, My Coins".

Huu ndio msingi wa uhuru wote wa Bitcoin, na ukiuelewa vibaya, unaweza kupoteza kila kitu.

Ina maana gani hasa?

Unapoingia kwenye benki, pesa zako ziko kwa benki. Benki ndiyo ina funguo ya safe. Siku benki ikifilisika au ikifungia akaunti yako, pesa zako zinakwama.

Bitcoin ilikuja kubadilisha hiyo. Mfumo wa Bitcoin una kitu kinaitwa Private Keys - ni kama neno la siri la maneno 12 au 24 ambalo ndilo funguo pekee ya kufungua wallet yako. Mtu yeyote aliye na hiyo funguo, ndiye mmiliki halisi wa Bitcoin.

Sasa, kuna njia mbili za kuhifadhi Bitcoin yako:

1. Kwenye Exchange (kama Binance, KuCoin): Ukiacha Bitcoin yako huko, wewe HUNA funguo. Exchange ndiyo ina funguo. Hapo ndipo msemo unapokuja "Not Your Keys, Not Your Coins" - Kama funguo si yako, basi sarafu si zako. Kesho exchange ikifilisika kama ilivyotokea kwa FTX, au ikifungiwa na serikali, Bitcoin yako inaenda hewani. Wewe una namba tu kwenye screen, si Bitcoin halisi.

2. Kwenye Self-Custody Wallet (kama Manna, Phoenix, BlueWallet, Trezor): Hapa wewe ndiye unayemiliki maneno yako 12. Wewe ndiye benki yako mwenyewe. Hakuna mtu anayeweza kuzuia muamala wako, hakuna mtu anayeweza kufungia akaunti yako. Ndiyo maana tunasema "My Keys, My Coins" - Funguo zangu, sarafu zangu, uhuru wangu.

Funzo kwa Mtanzania: Binance ni soko la kubadilishia, si benki ya kuweka akiba. Nunua huko, kisha hamisha mara moja kwenye wallet yako binafsi. Andika maneno yako 12 kwenye karatasi, usihifadhi kwenye simu au mtandaoni. Mtu akipata maneno yako, amepata pesa zako.

Kumbuka: Katika Bitcoin, wewe ndiye mlinzi wa utajiri wako.

Leo Tujifunze Zaidi Kuhusu Bitrefill.com na Jinsi ya Kuitumia Hapa Tanzania 🇹🇿

Ndugu yangu, unayo Bitcoin kwenye simu yako lakini unashindwa kuitumia kununua vocha, kulipia LUKU au Netflix? Basi Bitrefill ndiyo suluhisho lako.

Bitrefill ni nini? Bitrefill ni duka kubwa la mtandaoni duniani linalokuruhusu kutumia Bitcoin yako na Lightning kununua vitu vya kila siku bila kuhitaji benki au kubadilisha kwenda TZS. Ni kama Amazon ya Bitcoin.

Huduma gani zinapatikana kwa sisi Watanzania?

1. Miamala ya Simu (Airtime & Data): Unaweza kununua vocha za Vodacom, Tigo, Airtel, na Halotel moja kwa moja kwa Lightning. Haraka, ndani ya sekunde 5.

2. Luku ya Tanesco: Ndiyo! Unaweza kulipia umeme wa LUKU moja kwa moja kwa Bitcoin.

3. Gift Cards za Kimataifa: Unataka Netflix, Apple Store, Google Play, Spotify, Uber, Jumia? Bitrefill inazo gift card zaidi ya 5,000 kutoka duniani kote. Unalipia kwa sats, unapata code.

4. Kusafiri na Kula: Unaweza kubook hoteli na ndege kupitia Expedia vouchers au kununua vocha za chakula.

Njia za Malipo? Bitrefill inakubali Bitcoin ya kawaida (on-chain) na ya haraka zaidi ya Lightning Network na payments zingine kama Usdt , usdc, ethereum , cardano na n.k .

Lightning ndiyo nzuri kwa Tanzania kwa sababu ada yake ni karibu sifuri (sats chache tu) na muamala unafanyika papo hapo.

Jinsi ya Kuanza? Ni rahisi sana. Huhitaji hata ID. Unaingia tu kwenye tovuti, unachagua huduma, unaweka namba yako ya simu, na unalipia kwa wallet yako.

Kama mpaka sasa huna account, hii ndiyo nafasi yako ya kuanza kutumia Bitcoin yako kwa matumizi halisi ya kila siku. Fungua account yako leo hapa:

Hello Bitcoiners & Family 🧡

OurFounder #Graysatoshi of #BitcoinSafariTz, a grassroots Bitcoin education initiative from Tanzania.

He is excited to share that he has been confirmed as a speaker at the Africa Blockchain Festival ( africablockchainfestival.com) in Nairobi, Kenya 🇰🇪. The festival will take place from 15th to 17th October 2026 at the Sarit Expo Centre .

Je will be speaking on a topic very close to my heart: How communities drive education, trust, adoption, and long-term ecosystem growth, and what it takes to build communities that create lasting value for Bitcoin adoption.

This is a huge opportunity to represent Tanzania and share our experience onboarding merchants, educating youth, and building from the ground up.

To make this journey happen, I am humbly seeking support for travel and accommodation for 6 days in Nairobi.

Here is the budget breakdown:

1. Transport: Bus from Tanzania to Nairobi (go & return) - 200,000 TZS ~ 90,000 sats

2. Accommodation for 5 days: This covers lodge/apartment, breakfast, lunch & supper, plus daily local transport from the lodge to the conference hall - 900,000 TZS ~ 479,806 sats

3. Conference Ticket Pass: $99 ~ 118,752 sats

Total Cost Needed: 688,558 sats

My goal is not just to speak, but to learn deeply how Bitcoin adoption is growing in Kenya, to network with other builders and educators, and to bring back valuable knowledge, tools, and connections to implement in my BitcoinSafariTz community back home in Tanzania. We are still behind in technology, and this exposure will help us awaken more people to adopt Bitcoin step by step.

If you believe in grassroots Bitcoin education in Africa, please consider supporting. Every sat counts.

Thank you so much. Asante sana!

Graysatoshi Founder, BitcoinSafariTz

🚀 Cypher Tank 2026 — The Bitcoin "Shark Tank"

This is Plan ₿ Network's global pitch series for builders in Bitcoin and freedom-tech. Think real negotiations, live pitching, and $100K prizes — but 100% focused on Bitcoin values instead of VC hype.

Here’s the full breakdown:

1. What is Cypher Tank? CypherTank is a Bitcoin-focused pitch series launched by the Plan ₿ Network. Goal: highlight innovative builders, explore bold ideas, and bring the global Bitcoin community directly into the conversation. It blends live pitching + founder storytelling + community discussion, all framed around Bitcoin culture.

Plan ₿ calls it: "give Bitcoin founders not only capital, but a global stage"

2. The Prize

• 3 winners* will receive $100,000 each* in incubation, acceleration, or relocation services — matches what you shared
• Total prize pool is $850,000+. That includes:
  • $100K for each of the 3 main winners
  • A $200,000 grant for the winning nonprofit from the Plan ₿ Foundation, with potential additional grants from judges

So it’s open to both for-profit startups AND nonprofit projects building on Bitcoin

3. What they’re looking for Projects should focus on:

• Individual freedom & privacy— core cypherpunk values: cryptography to ensure privacy and individual freedom

• Decentralization & resilience — no single point of failure, censorship-resistant

• Sustainability & execution — can you actually ship it

• Market feasibility — real users, real problem

• Impact within the Plan ₿ ecosystem — Plan ₿ Network advances Bitcoin adoption through education, investment, and community initiatives, including the Plan ₿ Hub in Lugano

Think: privacy tools, Lightning apps, mining decentralization, self-custody, freedom-tech infra — anything that pushes Bitcoin forward without relying on centralized intermediaries

4. Key Dates & Timeline

• Applications open: Now. Deadline is September 25, 2026

• Semifinals: Previously recorded in Oct 2025 at http://PoW.Space. For 2026, expect similar structure leading up to finale.

• Episodes published: January 2027 . Episode 1 for the 2026 season is scheduled to debut January 31, 2026 during Plan ₿ Forum El Salvador, with more episodes rolling through February

• Final / Winners announced*: *Lugano, Switzerland. Winners are formally recognized during Plan ₿’s anniversary celebrations in Lugano on March 3

5. The Judges Panel Heavy hitters from Bitcoin VC and founder world:

• Paolo Ardoino— Tether / Plan ₿ VC Fund
• Adam Back — Blockstream
• Matt Odell — Ten31, OpenSats
• Preston Pysh — Ego Death
• Oleg Mikhalsky — Fulgur Ventures / Plan ₿ VC Fund & Foundation
• others like Allen Farrington, Mike Jarmuz, Eric Yakes, Brad Mills

6. Why Lugano? Plan ₿ Network is on a mission to transform Lugano, Switzerland into a Bitcoin haven. The city declared Bitcoin legal tender alongside the Swiss franc and hosts the annual Plan ₿ Forum. The finale being in Lugano puts winners on a high-profile platform

7. How to Apply Apply here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdgi6Gisl7NxBVNUZKBq6NRjywzw1oyKfgZDtSkSjzrimIYBg/viewform

Open to both for-profit startups and nonprofit projects building on Bitcoin

8. The vibe: "Shark Tank x Bitcoin Maximalism" The 2026 version is designed as an episodic, TV-style experience with live pitches, real-time judge evaluations, and unfiltered negotiations. It’s described as Shark Tank intersecting with Bitcoin maximalism — eschewing fiat and focusing on unadulterated Bitcoin innovation

Bottom line : If you’re building anything that protects privacy, pushes decentralization, or makes Bitcoin more usable, this is the stage to pitch it. You get capital, mentorship, and exposure to the core Bitcoin ecosystem + Plan ₿ investors.

Session Recap: Learn Chama Own Your Money

Yesterday's session with Jetty from Chama was an insightful, interactive session on how Chama enables peer to peer trading with no third parties involved.

What is Chama? A peer to peer marketplace for trading Bitcoin, goods, and services within your community no company sits in the middle. Users sign in with a cryptographic key (the Nostr standard) instead of email or password, and select a "community" based on their country and currency.

How a trade works: Every trade moves through clear stages Reserved → Locked (funded in escrow) → Delivery/Payment → Released → Claimed → Settled. Safety is built on a 2-of-3 escrow : buyer, seller, and a community arbiter two of the three must agree before funds move. The arbiter only steps in during disputes and can never seize funds outright.

Fees: Chama itself charges nothing; a small optional 0.5% insurance premium (split buyer/seller) goes to the arbiter backing the trade.

Cashing out: Kenyan users enjoy instant M-Pesa payouts via Tando; other regions can use local partners, Lightning, or onchain Bitcoin. Between trades, balances stay at zero nothing for anyone to freeze or drain.

Bottom line: Trust the math, not a middleman.

Big thanks to Jetty and everyone who joined from Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, and Malawi! 🙌
