In the latest episode of Btrust in Focus, Paul Eke sits with Fidel Otieno, founder of bitika (nprofile…lw7d), to talk about his path into Bitcoin development and the experiences that shaped his approach to building.
They discuss the challenges of learning Bitcoin as a developer, the programmes and communities that helped Fidel deepen his technical understanding, and how those experiences eventually led to Bitika, a platform making it easier for people in Kenya 🇰🇪 to access Bitcoin through M-Pesa and Lightning⚡.
The conversation also explores Fidel's vision for building useful Bitcoin products in Africa and his advice to developers who have ideas but are still waiting for the right moment to act on them.
