Hey everyone, I'm a new user from Nigeria. Last month I came across the Bitcoin Magazine App and I registered for the 21DaysofBitcoin course.

After passing through all the 21 Days email lessons, I came to understand the basics of Bitcoin and the Lightning Network.

Learning about the Bitcoin Lightning Network ⚡ made me aware of some Lightning Network Apps and I found myself on @SN.

I wish to interact with Bitcoiners and Bitcoin Apps especially the Lightning Network Apps.

I'm new to the Bitcoin ecosystem so, I may not have some technical knowledge to share about Bitcoin. I intend to share important Bitcoin news links and my experiences as I learn and interact with Bitcoin Apps.

Thank you for reading.

Great stuff. Welcome.

Do you know which wallets are the most popular in Nigeria?

Thank you.

As for the most popular wallets in Nigeria, I guess it's Trust wallet. I think MetaMask might be the second in popularity. I'm only guessing, please. 😀

Welcome friend; you have come to the right place. You just completed the 21 Days of Bitcoin course; are you aware that there is a 21-day Africa Bitcoiners course as well, based out of Nigeria? Here is a link to both their website and Twitter page:

https://bitcoiners.africa/ https://twitter.com/afribitcoiners

Even though I live in the US, I took the course earlier this month and it had a some content that was more centered toward an African audience, so you may find that helpful. Also, consider exploring these educational resources as well:

https://lookingglasseducation.com/ = Another slightly higher-level quiz to gauge your level of Bitcoin understanding; Look for the "50 Questions To Test Your Bitcoin Knowledge" under the courses section after you register for an account

https://bitcoin.rocks/ = A website with short articles about various aspects of Bitcoin; they will even give you a template to print stickers for international regions to help you spread the word about Bitcoin...or for you just to put up in your room as conversation starters

https://www.2minutebitcoin.org/ = Just like the name implies, some good short articles about bitcoin and bitcoin history

https://bitcoinmagazine.com/ = A pretty good source of current bitcoin news. You can also earn/stack sats by reading articles in their app. Of note, Bitcoin Magazine has a great guides section (https://bitcoinmagazine.com/guides) that summarizes big picture topics around Bitcoin

Glad you are here and look forward to learning with you and from you.

Thanks @MathiuJ, you're so kind.

I'll go quickly checkout the 21-Day Africa Bitcoiners course, and the other resources.

I'm so happy to have all this Bitcoin resources to further my research/study.

I'm honored.
