Join us in Accra, Cape Town and Nairobi for hands-on developer workshops and learn to speak tbDEX, the language of global payments.

Exciting news for Africa's fintech community! Following the successful launch of tbDEX 1.0 at Web Summit Rio, TBD is thrilled to announce a series of hands-on tbDEX Developer Workshops in Africa. 

Hosted in partnership with Circle and Yellow Card , these full day workshops will teach developers how to use tbDEX, an open source liquidity and trust protocol, to unlock frictionless, compliant cross-border payments that are settled in seconds, not days.

tbDEX enables seamless exchanges across a diverse range of currency pairings by utilizing open standards such as decentralized identity and verifiable credentials to meet legal and regulatory obligations.

We’ll build a simple wallet application that uses the tbDEX SDK to connect with a sandbox of financial institutions to experience how the protocol negotiates trusted transactions between participants on the network.

If you’re in the payments business, this session is for you! Key takeaways include:

  • Gain a comprehensive understanding of how tbDEX operates as a catalyst in liquidity exchange
  • Acquire hands-on experience in developing a financial application that uses the tbDEX messaging protocol
  • Learn how Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs) address your compliance requirements
