A few months ago, I didn't expect that I'd be spending my days debugging authentication flows, opening pull requests, analyzing backend architectures, and building a Bitcoin education platform during a hackathon.

What started as curiosity about Bitcoin turned into one of the most intense learning experiences I've had as a builder, and honestly, I wouldn't trade it for anything.
This is the story of how I joined Hack4Freedom Lagos 2026, helped build BitPath, contributed to open source, discovered OpenCode, and learned that software engineering is often just solving one problem after another until things somehow start working.
