Introducing the Evento Wallet (Beta)

A couple of weeks ago at Btrust Developer Day in Mauritius, we quietly introduced something we’ve been building for a while: a simple, open source, self custodial bitcoin lightning wallet inside Evento. More than 80 people set up their wallet for the first time, and it was magical to watch how naturally it fit into the flow of an actual event. We were able to zap attendees directly from the guest list of our event, and people used their new lightning addresses to earn sats playing Mario Kart Do

Announcing Hack4Freedom 2026

Across Africa, women face the greatest barriers to financial access, censorship-resistant communication, and digital autonomy, yet they remain the least represented in building the technologies that aim to solve these problems. Globally, women make up roughly 3% of open-source contributors. In African tech, they represent less than 8% of developers.

Inside TABConf 7, the Most Fun Bitcoin Conference in the World

Three weeks ago, we hosted yet another unforgettable TABConf, the world’s most fun, quirky, and nerdy hands-on bitcoin developer conference (I may be biased though!) This year marked my fifth TABConf, and every year somehow gets better. I've finally been able to collect my thoughts, processing yet another successful year and just thinking about how joining this conference is one of the best decisions I've ever made. I mean, TABConf is where I fell in love with my husband. Enough said 🤣 I firs

Introducing Hack4Freedom: Empowering Women in Nigeria to Build with Freedom Tech

They Can Freeze Our Accounts, But They Can't Freeze Our Hope: A New Lifeline for Activism

A combined reflection by Sekinah Ibrahim and Abdulmalik Ibrahim Sekinah Ibrahim, Community & Events Manager at Evento As an activist in Nigeria, you learn to live with a certain level of fear. It becomes a constant, low hum in the background of your life. I have felt the sting of police batons and faced the chilling intimidation of the military. I carry the physical and psychological scars of that brutality. But there is another weapon they use, one that is quieter but just as devastating: fin
