How to Contribute to Bitcoin (Even If You Don’t Code)
summary
Non-developers can make concrete contributions: the talk lists seven roles plus an eighth newbie that surfaces blind spots, and gives actionable tasks — tester: run pre-release wallets and report crashes; designer: redesign a wallet fee UI; review PRs on GitHub to catch edge cases; translate educational pieces; organize local meetups or coordinate contributors; write threads or podcasts to explain why Bitcoin matters; ask simple questions that reveal missing documentation.
