A Bitcoin school exists in rural Bugiri that should not be possible. 100+ children. 4 classroom blocks. 22 staff. Paid for almost entirely in sats. The story starts with 34 strangers and a single plane ticket in May 2023. I opened a Geyser ⚡️ campaign asking 5.9M sats for a flight to BTC Prague. Thirty-four people sent it in. I got on the plane. At the Circular Economies booth in Prague, I was challenged: bring Bitcoin home. Use it for the things money is actually for. Not slogans. I went back to Uganda looking for the place that test would land hardest. I found it in Bugiri. An orphanage called @OrphansOfUganda . 77 children. No electricity. No plates. No toothbrushes. The only school within 10 kilometres — Starlight Elementary — was about to close after a district inspector flagged it below ministry standard. We did not buy the school first. We signed an MOU. Administered it for 18 months. Earned the right to be trusted with it. Then acquired the title. Four classroom blocks went up. Every load of cement was paid for in Bitcoin. Every tile. Every can of paint. The older students who plastered and sanded and carried were paid in sats for their hours on site. A muralist(Dennis k) moved onto the campus and stayed. By February 2026, the school was open. Three videos compress the journey 👇 THE PITCH: the campaign video that started it all: BEFORE: watch the small boy who introduces himself as "Mr. Bitcoin" and defines it on camera as "the digital currency": AFTER: the same campus today: The long version: Bitcoin Beach Praia Bitcoin Brazil Trezor TrezorAcademy Geyser ⚡️ Bitcoin Ekasi there is no Starlight without you.
