Interested in joining HongBao Bitcoin?

I'm Stéphane, the creator of Hong₿ao. I've also built 4 startups and learned about Bitcoin back in 2013.

Growing up, my grandma used to give us red envelopes (hóng bāo) for Chinese New Year.

But today, her gift vanished with inflation.

As a dad of two, I wanted the money I saved for them to actually cover their tuition or help them buy a home.

So I built Hong₿ao for 4 reasons:

1. Protect my friends and family against inflation and financial instability
2. Orange-pill without the lecture — Give Bitcoin first, let curiosity drive the learning
3. Strengthen the network — Every gift creates an on-chain transaction that supports miners
4. Decentralize ownership — Counter institutional hoarding by distributing sats to individuals

With Salma and Mouaad we're open-source so you can verify our code. Let's ship! 🧑‍💻

PS : Working on collabs with Bitcoin artists so they can share their work and get paid
