In July, we put out a call for a Chief Executive Officer, and after a long, thoughtful, and rigorous selection process, we’re excited to share that nostr:nprofile1qqsgfhsg3q4kudnstnm9jth93e3jm4hqjtwkrsf3jt7gpjaupj7g9nqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtctvc8ug has been appointed as the new CEO of Btrust.

Abubakar will be stepping down from his position on the Board to take on this full-time role, where he will report directly to the Btrust Board.

His appointment marks an important new chapter for Btrust as we continue our mission to strengthen and support open-source development across Africa and beyond.

This is a three-year term, with the possibility of renewal by a subsequent board for one additional three-year period.

Join us in congratulating Abubakar on this new role and in looking forward to what’s ahead for us.

Last week, the Btrust team was in Senegal 🇸🇳 for Dakar Bitcoin Days, a 3-day conference that brought together Bitcoin builders, educators, and enthusiasts from across the francophone region and the world over.

On day 1, our communications officer, nostr:nprofile1qqs9qf833x5k0wc89g8pd883n7yv79trjrj26va2dvzgghj97cd0e7qppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0ycuhex, emphasized the importance of global participation in Bitcoin development, noting that Bitcoin is a universal technology that thrives when people from all regions contribute to its code and growth.

Her talk highlighted the work we’re doing at Btrust to support open-source Bitcoin development and encourage more francophone talent to join and contribute to the ecosystem.

On day 2, our grantee Abdullahi shared practical insights on how developers can start contributing to Bitcoin open source, offering actionable tips and a look into what it takes to get started.

Later that day, Tobechi demonstrated how BTCPay Server can connect Africa’s local payment systems with Bitcoin, advancing financial sovereignty across the continent.

He also showcased the BTCPay Naira Payment Plugin (https://plugin-builder.btcpayserver.org/public/plugins/nairacheckout), which enables customers to pay in naira via bank transfer while merchants receive Bitcoin directly, powered by Mavapay as the offramp service.

This model is already running successfully in Nigeria 🇳🇬, and the team is now exploring expansion across other African countries.

We wrapped up the conference celebrating winners of the Dakar Bitcoin Hackathon, which had been going on for a little over a month.

The conference sessions were thoughtfully curated, covering everything from beginner-friendly introductions to deep technical dives and local innovations.

A big well done to the hosts for putting together the event.

You know what’s frustrating? When you’ve got the skills, the drive, and the ideas to make an impact, but the only thing stopping you is a border stamp.

That’s the reality for so many brilliant Bitcoin developers across Africa and the Global South. They can write world‑class code, contribute to open‑source, and push the ecosystem forward, but collaborating in person with global peers or speaking on major stages? Too often, visa challenges make that impossible.

We’ve decided that can’t be where the story ends. That's why we created the Pull Partnership; a way to place our grantees directly inside top Bitcoin teams around the world, where they can learn, share, and grow without barriers holding them back.

The idea started when our grantee, Abubakar Sadiq Ismail, joined Chaincode Labs in New York 🇺🇸 last year. He spent time working alongside leading Bitcoin developers, gaining hands-on experience and navigating the visa maze. That success made us think: what if we made this kind of opportunity a standard part of our grant ecosystem?

Fast forward to this year. We’ve just piloted the Pull Partnership with 2140.dev in Amsterdam 🇳🇱.

We’ve paired the Btrust‑funded developers with their team, covering salaries, relocation costs, and visa support, while 2140 provided mentorship, career development, and access to key Bitcoin industry events.

We’d like to say a huge thank you to the 2140 team for making this partnership a reality.

Six outstanding Bitcoin open-source developers are the recipients of the Q3 2025 Btrust developer grants, all alumni of the nostr:nprofile1qqsg6gcf7gx74c2ls58vl653mlaah68ddk4wrj5gg8kux3walma4zwcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7lufrz8 program and now making impactful, full-time contributions to the Bitcoin ecosystem.🚀

The Btrust starter grant supports engineers beginning their full-time open-source journey by giving them the freedom to explore areas of interest, identify a long-term focus, and collaborate with the global Bitcoin developer community without financial constraints. This quarter, four talented engineers received starter grants.

Rita Anene is working on transaction lifecycle management, payment tracking, and storage optimization in LDK Node, while contributing to Warnet by adding dynamic plugin configuration to address issues like stuck Replace-By-Fee transactions.

Ojok Emmanuel Nsubuga is focused on modernizing BlueWallet with a migration to TypeScript, strengthening reproducible builds for F-Droid, and enhancing Silent Payments support aligned with Bitcoin Improvement Proposals.

Abiodun Awoyemi is contributing to Bitcoin Dev Kit with flexible Replace-By-Fee transaction construction, improved cross-wallet interoperability, caching enhancements, and more secure signing workflows, alongside educational resources for new developers.

Chuks Agbakuru is working on finalizing Human-Readable Names support in LDK Node, extending SimLN with LDK Node compatibility, and developing advanced simulation features for Lightning testing.

The Btrust Long-Term Grant provides sustained monthly funding, mentorship, and peer support for experienced contributors, enabling them to deepen their impact on critical Bitcoin projects. This quarter we are celebrating one engineer progressing from a starter grant to the long-term cohort and another receiving a renewal.

Itoro Ukpong is leading work on the migration of BDK-FFI to version 3.0, focused on enhancing Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions, advancing Miniscript descriptor support, and maintaining developer-facing libraries and sample wallets, while contributing to the Book of BDK.

Oghenovo Usiwoma is working on Bitcoin Core privacy and performance improvements, contributing to Silent Payments, batch verification of Schnorr signatures, and enhancements to libmultiprocess.
