Hello, Tech Twitter! I built and deployed a Free web3 tool to help everyone understand and grasp web3 terminologies. It's open-source, of course! 🧵 👇

𝐈𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐒 𝐎𝐋𝐔𝐁𝐈𝐒𝐈 𝐈𝐍 𝐒𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍 Highlights from Idris Olubisi, Developer Relations Engineer and Founder of Web3 Afrika, during his workshop session. #BlockfestAfrica #BlockfestAfrica2026 #TheNewTradeRoute

After 5 years of building @AltSchoolAfrica with @AdewaleYusuf_ and @opeawo, today I’m officially stepping down as CTO and moving into the CEO role. The goal is to provide global education to Africans at an affordable cost. Instead of going to the UK and spending £30,000 to get a degree, you can attend the same university through AltSchool for less than £15,000. Same school, same lecturers, same BSc. Equal value. Equal access. Local pricing. I’m officially launching our degree programmes on degree.altschoolafrica.com, and over the next few months, you’ll see more global universities join the AltSchool network. Welcome to the edX of Africa.

Thank you all for attending my session. I really enjoyed chatting. #BlockfestAfrica2026

Excited to share that Evolution has joined Nuvion @ournuvion 🚀 When we started Evolution, we had a simple vision: make moving money across borders easier and more accessible for individuals and businesses, enabling them to go Global from wherever they were. We believed that accessing global financial services shouldn’t be complicated simply because of where you live or where your business operates. What started as a platform for exchanging digital assets grew into something much bigger. We built infrastructure that enabled people and businesses to hold multiple currencies, receive international payments, move money across borders, and access financial tools that were previously out of reach. Along the way, we served thousands of users, processed millions of dollars in transactions, and learned firsthand what it takes to build financial infrastructure in emerging markets. But more importantly, we saw just how much work remains to be done. As we continued building, one thing became increasingly clear: solving cross-border banking challenges at scale requires more than a great product. It requires strong financial infrastructure, regulatory reach, and the ability to serve businesses wherever they operate. That’s what makes this next chapter with Nuvion particularly exciting. Nuvion is building an AI Powered Global banking platform for ambitious businesses, bringing multicurrency accounts, international payments, FX, virtual cards, and stablecoin infrastructure together in one place. Our visions have always been closely aligned, and joining forces gives us the opportunity to pursue what we started at Evolution on a much larger scale. For me, this is an opportunity to take everything we’ve learned building Evolution and apply it to something with the infrastructure, reach, and ambition to serve businesses around the world. I’m especially excited that members of the Evolution team are continuing this journey with me at Nuvion. We’ve spent years building, solving difficult problems, and learning together. Now we get to bring that experience into a much bigger mission. To everyone who believed in Evolution, our early customers, investors, partners, community, and the incredible people who contributed to our journey: thank you. You trusted us when we were still figuring things out, challenged us to build better, and helped turn an idea into a real business. I’m incredibly proud of what we built, and even more excited about what comes next. Evolution was never just about building another fintech company. It was about making global banking accessible for the people and businesses who need it. That mission continues at Nuvion. The Job is just starting

Really excited about this and the team behind it. Fr ochain FX for naira/pesos without the usual pre-funding mess is actually a real unlock. Testnet’s up!

You can move a billion dollars onchain in seconds. You still can't move a million dollars into naira, pesos or shillings the same way. ViFi is onchain FX built on Uniswap v4 hooks. Our testnet is live today on Base Sepolia and Arc Testnet. Try it: app.vifilabs.xyz

We just raised a $60M Series B at a $1B valuation to build @daytonaio into the Agent Cloud. @FirstMarkCap led the round, with all key existing investors and angels doubling down. We're also thrilled to welcome the founders of some generational companies aboard, including @patrickc (Stripe), @tobi (Shopify), @AravSrinivas (Perplexity), @BrendanFoody (Mercor), @oliveur (Datadog), @adamdangelo (Quora) and @ericsyuan (Zoom) We're a 35-person team. But that's about to change; we're hiring across the board, and we'd love for you to join us.

If you're a Nigerian developer, whether you're just starting out or you've been building for years, there's so much you can build and learn with homegrown technologies 🇳🇬❤️ We have: 🇳🇬 @Dbrij_hq & @pxxl_space instead of Vercel for hosting. 🇳🇬 @StackshiftCloud for VPS hosting and management, as an alternative to providers like Hostinger and tools like Coolify. 🇳🇬 @Dbrij_hq & @sendly_ai_ instead of Resend for business and transactional emails. 🇳🇬 @cencori instead of OpenRouter and Cloudflare AI Gateway for AI model access and management. 🇳🇬 Sabilytics.com instead of Google Analytics and DataFast for website analytics. 🇳🇬 @OutRayTunnel for tunnelling local services, as an alternative to tools like ngrok and Cloudflare Tunnel. 🇳🇬 @Bachs_hq for international payments, as an alternative to Stripe. And these are just the ones I can remember right now! I'm not saying you must stop using international tools. I'm saying we have people right here building alternatives worth trying, supporting, and contributing to. With better local pricing that fits us. I know I'm missing so many other products. What other Nigerian-built products and their global alternatives should be on this list? Drop them in the replies! 👇 And if you're building something in Nigeria or anywhere across Africa, please submit your project to Africa Is Building so more people can discover what you're working on ❤️ africaisbuilding.com/submit
