This week, the first ever Bitcoin UX Bootcamp is happening in Africa. 🔥🔥🔥
10 talented UX designers from Africa will learn & get hands on by doing UX research on wallets. We will then bring this data about these user experiences back to the ecosystem.
Builders of these wallets can then improve them and make data driven iterations to the designs to improve the user experience.
We’re also thrilled to announce that the next edition already has a confirmed location: Brazil! 🇧🇷 To all UX designers in South America eager to learn and connect with the Bitcoin industry, stay tuned, we’ll be sharing more details in the coming days! 
🪴 Today at 12:00 UTC we will watch live as the next generation of Bitcoin Designers onboard themselves into an exciting learning path leading up to the first ever Bitcoin UX Bootcamp 2024.
