Announcing the 2025 Btrust Developer Day in Mauritius
We are excited to share that Btrust is once again partnering with the Africa Bitcoin Conference (ABC) to present the 2025 Btrust Developer Day.
This year’s event will take place on December 2, 2025, at the Trianon Convention Centre in Port Louis, Mauritius, and will serve as the official developer-focused precursor to the 2025 Africa Bitcoin Conference. Through this partnership, Btrust and the Africa Bitcoin Conference are creating a unique platform that empowers Africa’s technical community, catalyzing local innovation and global collaboration in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Following last year’s successful Developer Day in Nairobi, which drew over 250 developers, builders and open-source contributors from across the continent, the Btrust Developer Day returns with even greater ambition. The 2025 edition promises a full day of technical sessions, hands-on workshops, and engaging networking for Bitcoin builders, open-source contributors, developers, and anyone passionate about Bitcoin’s future in Africa.
This year’s theme, “Build Locally, Contribute Globally”, captures our mission to nurture developers solving local challenges while supporting their meaningful contributions to the global Bitcoin ecosystem.
"This year's Dev Day aims to reframe the development effort toward addressing local challenges as a more effective mechanism to contribute to Bitcoin's core use cases as money and resilience as a global tool," said Abubakar Nur Khalil, CEO of Btrust. "As long as Bitcoin's developer base reflects those who use it on the ground, as money that works for them, Bitcoin will continue to remain a useful tool for everyone.”
Setting the Stage for the 2025 Africa Bitcoin Conference
Btrust Developer Day will serve as an opening for the Africa Bitcoin Conference, which will follow from December 3–5 at the Caudan Arts Centre, Port Louis, Mauritius. The collaborative spirit continues into the week, as technical leaders, entrepreneurs, investors, policy makers, and advocates from across Africa, and the globe, explore how bitcoin can drive financial inclusion and economic growth across the continent.
Registration for the 2025 Africa Bitcoin Conference is ongoing. Secure your spot and learn more about the conference at www.afrobitcoin.org.
“This partnership between Btrust and the Africa Bitcoin Conference is about more than co-hosting an event, it’s about uniting missions to accelerate open-source development and financial freedom across Africa,” said Farida Nabourema, Convener of the Africa Bitcoin Conference. “With the Btrust Developer Day 2025 in Mauritius, we are opening doors for African developers to transform local challenges into global contributions that strengthen the Bitcoin community.”
