Bitcoin In The Wild

At Bitcoin In The Wild we believe in supporting innovative technologies that can help protect wildlife and ecosystems. Just like Bitcoin in its early days, drone technologies often start small but have the potential to create powerful change.
Drone technology is one of the tools that is now transforming conservation efforts. Through this initiative , we support conservation work using advanced drone technology. Last year we donated a drone to @TFAfrica , and it is now fully in use.
At the moment, it is capturing aerial views to monitor changes in land-based vegetation 🌿. This is especially important after the recent flooding that caused significant damage in the reserve, helping conservation teams better understand the impact on the ecosystem.

Recent flooding in South Africa reveals both the raw power and the beauty of nature 🌍
The weeks ahead will be challenging. Damaged fences and roads must be restored urgently to prevent poachers from entering the reserves.

Our team visited The Black Mambas female rangers last year before Christmas together with @npub10vu…8djm
These incredible women protect wildlife even through the holidays, spending Christmas away from home & their kids. Check out video 🎄🤩 ⬇️
We had the privilege of meeting some of the female Mambas rangers’ children and asking them a few questions. It was truly heartwarming to hear them speak with pride about their mothers, even though they miss them dearly.
People living in townships surrounding Krugerpark SA lack computers & decent economic insights. Bitcoin can make a difference!

Dismissing Bitcoin as useless and lacking intrinsic value overlooks the efforts of those running nodes to secure the network with energy through mining and disregards the millions of unbanked people in Africa and beyond who rely on it. 🟠🔥

Getting to Know the Future Guardians of Wildlife! 🐘🌍
We had the incredible opportunity to interview the students from the Bushbabies, diving deeper into their perspectives on life in communities next to wildlife. We listened to their thoughts on what matters most to them and how they view Environmental Education as part of their daily lives.
Together with Lewyn from The BushBabies and the dedicated carers Herd Elephants , we make it possible for these students to experience a truly unforgettable moment—meeting an elephant for the first time! 🐘💚
Witnessing their excitement and connection with these gentle giants is a reminder of why conservation and education go hand in hand.
Empowering the next generation starts with understanding their voices! 🌿✨
We could not have sponsored this without your support 🙏🏽♥️💪🏽

Awesome paper exploring the intersection of wildlife conservation by Stuart McKernan @nprofile…z3te , economic freedom, and Bitcoin adoption as a solution to the challenges faced by conservation efforts.
The document argues that the biggest threat to conservation is not poaching or habitat loss, but economic instability.
By introducing Bitcoin as "sound money", communities near conservation areas can achieve financial stability, lowering their dependence on environmental destruction and ensuring a sustainable future for both people and wildlife.

Thanks to our @npub1kmw…xqk9 fundraiser we were able to fund their trip to the conference:
https://geyser.fund/project/bitcoinforwildlifeconservation?hero=geyser
Since the NGO didn’t accept Bitcoin donations at the time, we sent the funds in fiat & held the BTC for them until they can receive it in their own wallet 🙌🏽
We are since then working hard behind the scenes on their bitcoin adoption journey and made some significant progress during our last visit. Slowly then suddenly 💪🏽

True. Funding for wildlife conservation, including national parks, are indeed already a problem. After the pandemic most subsidies to private initiatives were abolished. This will even become a bigger issue with fiat over time.
It’s important though to acknowledge the positive impact that both public and private conservation efforts can still have. Conservation strategies are evolving, and new models, like community-led conservation or partnerships with private organizations, are showing promise.
We still believe that local privately funded conservation initiatives can help and can offer innovative solutions, funded with bitcoin. Collaboration with government remains important.

During our visit to Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre (HESC) last month, the heat was intense, and the baby rhinos found comfort huddling close together in the shade.
They spend their days in the reserve, being nurtured and cared for until they are ready to return to the wild. Among them was Angie, a little rhino receiving her feeding session. We’ll share more about her soon.
This visit also brought back memories of Esmé, a rhino we first met five years ago when she was just a baby.
At that time, HESC was thriving, supported by many visitors who helped sustain its vital work. However, as with many NGOs in South Africa, the outbreak of COVID-19 brought significant challenges, reducing support and making their mission even harder.
Despite these difficulties, Esmé has flourished. Today, she plays a crucial role as an allomother, providing care and guidance to the orphaned baby rhinos that arrive at the center. Her nurturing presence is invaluable, and she remains at HESC to help the little ones thrive.
Esmé’s story is a beautiful reminder of resilience, hope, and the impact of dedicated care.
With Bitcoin for conservation under the umbrella of @npub19vz…fwka we help these little rhinos thrive again!
