 Great questions! The Black Bitcoin Society (BBS) emerged from the idea that BIPOC individuals have often been less educated on financial literacy, including Bitcoin. This society aims to change that by educating and serving the BIPOC community, as I’ve noticed relatively few people in this space building, learning about, or holding Bitcoin within our community.

Bitcoin is global, and so is the mission of BBS. The society and the information shared are available to everyone, regardless of nationality, religion, or gender. It’s similar to how companies like Strike or River operate as Bitcoin-only platforms but still provide the option to hold and save in cash if desired. Think of it like a barbershop in a Black neighborhood: they specialize in Black haircuts, but if a White individual comes in, they’ll be treated with the same care and respect, even if the haircut style varies slightly.
