The article discusses the upcoming Conference Bitcoin Afrique (CBA) event, which will take place in Douala, Cameroon, in April 2025. The conference aims to promote Bitcoin adoption in French-speaking African countries and educate and connect the French-speaking Bitcoin community. The event is significant because it highlights the issues with the Franc CFA, a colonial-era currency that has hindered economic sovereignty for African nations. Bitcoin offers an alternative financial system that empowers individuals and breaks economic chains. The conference is French-only to dismantle language barriers and establish French-speaking Africa as a major force in the global Bitcoin economy. Unlike other crypto conferences, CBA focuses solely on Bitcoin and its core mission of financial freedom and economic empowerment. The long-term vision is to expand the conference to other French-speaking countries in Africa. Douala, as the economic capital of Cameroon and a major trade hub, is strategically chosen as the conference venue. The event presents an opportunity for global Bitcoin advocates to witness firsthand the impact of Bitcoin in French-speaking Africa and support the initiative by purchasing tickets or sponsoring the event. Overall, CBA is a movement to liberate French-speaking Africa from financial colonialism and connect international Bitcoiners with the rapidly growing market.
