Bitcoin Africa 2026 Conference Set for Burkina Faso as French-Speaking Africa Gathers
The Conférence Bitcoin Afrique 2026 (Bitcoin Africa 2026) will take place April 17-19, 2026 in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, marking a significant milestone for Bitcoin adoption across Francophone African nations.
“The future of Bitcoin is written in Africa,” declares the conference website, emphasizing Bitcoin’s potential to reshape financial systems across French-speaking African countries. The three-day event in Ouagadougou serves as the flagship gathering for Bitcoin enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, and developers in Francophone Africa.
