Our mission
We're here to drive Bitcoin adoption and education in the UK.
How does this work?
Our chosen partner for storing and managing the bitcoin is Luno, a leading crypto wallet and exchange with a user-friendly interface that is absolutely ideal for beginners.
Once you’re approved into the community, you’ll get a unique promo code. All new customers signing up to Luno using your code will get £10 worth of Bitcoin paid into their Luno Wallet. At the end of each month you’ll get £10 for each successful referral, paid to your own Luno Wallet in an equivalent amount of bitcoin.
However, this is just the start! Most Bitcoin Pioneers actually generate more income by helping people learn about Bitcoin AFTER they've helped them get started. After all, that's our mission, drive adoption AND education in the UK!
Of course, it's not just about money! You'll also be part of a very exciting group of like-minded individuals AND have access to Bitcoin related events across the country, often at reduced prices or even FREE!
