Programs

We keep the program stack simple: one main builder program, one study track, and regular meetups that help developers move toward deeper Bitcoin work.

Bitcoin Builders Fellowship

Main Program

Our 12-week main program for software engineers building open-source Bitcoin tools and making meaningful public contributions.

Explore the Fellowship

Learning Bitcoin from the Command Line

Study Track

A hands-on study track built around Blockchain Commons' open-source curriculum. It helps developers build Bitcoin Core and command-line fluency before deeper engineering work.

Meetups

Community

Regular gatherings in Accra, with remote participation where possible, for developers sharing work in progress, asking technical questions, and meeting other builders.

Builder Sprints

Next Up

Shorter build sprints and hackathon-style sessions we plan to run once the fellowship and mentor network are established.

A simple path into the work

Join a meetup

Meetups and public sessions make it easy to get close to the work, ask questions, and meet other builders.

Study the fundamentals

LBTCL-style study tracks help developers get comfortable with Bitcoin Core, the command line, and engineering fundamentals.

Build in the fellowship

Bitcoin Builders Fellowship helps strong software engineers do deeper work through mentorship, code review, and public output.

Meetups

Our meetups are the easiest way to plug into Alkedevs. They are less about polished presentations and more about showing work, asking technical questions, and building relationships with other Bitcoin developers.
