Let's go!!! 💪
We’re excited to have @Extheo, CEO and co‑founder of @mavapay, joining the #BtrustDeveloperDay lineup.🚀
Theo is a dedicated bitcoin advocate and builder working to expand bitcoin adoption and infrastructure across the African continent.
As CEO of Mavapay, he’s pioneering payment systems that connect African businesses to the global bitcoin economy.
An alumnus of the @btrust_builders program, Theo has led developer workshops and bootcamps across Nigeria 🇳🇬 and Ghana 🇬🇭, and remains deeply engaged in building open‑source tools that advance real‑world bitcoin use.
His focus on technical education in the Global South has inspired and trained a new generation of builders across the bitcoin ecosystem.
In the workshop, Theo, @Thevelopher and @SulaimanAminuB2 will walk participants through the practical process of deploying an LND node environment, and integrating it with NodeGaze, an open‑source observability tool for visualizing real‑time channel health, payments, and system events.
Theo will also be part of the Lightning Round Q&A, alongside other global contributors and African builders. This session gives you the chance to ask questions about contribution paths, opportunities and challenges, so come prepared with your questions.
