BITCOIN IN BOTSWANA- EDUCATION
Many believe that Bitcoin is now finally going mainstream, but is it really?
Publicly launched in 2009, Bitcoin, the world’s first established cryptocurrency, has gained some adoption.
However, more than a decade after launching, Bitcoin adoption is still slow around the globe. News about Bitcoin is often about price speculation and many people don’t understand what Bitcoin is.
What is needed then for more adoption and impact? Education.
Our latest film explores this in Botswana where educator and community builder Alakanani Itireleng turns pain into purpose with Satoshicentre, a blockchain hub in Gaborone.
Filmmaker Sergio Ruestes also talks to Gaborone locals Koketso Pelo, Dr. D.B. Ariisa, and Ian Makgabana about how Bitcoin and crypto have the potential to empower people in Botswana, Africa, and beyond.

ABOUT BITCOINFILM
BitcoinFilm is a documentary series that tells human stories of Bitcoin’s impact on society through short films.
Most people don’t know what Bitcoin is or how it can move humanity forward. We show real world cases where Bitcoin is making a difference in social and financial economics of the countries we visit, while increasing the quality of life for its people.
Run by a passionate group of volunteers, we hope to show the human side of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
