Bitcoin Loxion: Building a Bitcoin Circular Economy in Khayelitsha
summary
Local project builds a Bitcoin circular economy in Khayelitsha by running education classes, creating community gardens paid in Bitcoin and onboarding nearby shops to accept and recirculate funds. The initiative copies lessons from Bitcoin Ekasi and Bitcoin Beach, paints Bitcoin logos on shacks to signal acceptance, and pays participants about 7,000 sats weekly. Early results show multiple shops onboarded, a first rooftop shop converted, and plans to scale education and merchant adoption across the township.
