About Bitcoin Victoria Falls

Bitcoin Victoria Falls is a grassroots initiative based in Livingstone, Zambia — the heart of Africa's tourism and now, its Bitcoin movement.

Our mission is to build a circular Bitcoin economy through education, merchant adoption, and practical onboarding. We run workshops, diploma cohorts, and outreach programs to help people use Bitcoin in daily life.

We believe Bitcoin is a tool for freedom, inclusion, and opportunity — and it starts with education.

Community Engagement

We connect with local businesses,and residents to encourage Bitcoin adoption through hands-on learning and real use.

Local Circular Economy

We're building a local ecosystem where people earn, spend, and save in Bitcoin — keeping value circulating within Livingstone.
