About Nexa and Bitcoin Unlimited
Bitcoin Unlimited (BU) is a blockchain development team founded in 2015 to advance on-chain scalability for Bitcoin. The BU full-node software played a major role in the 2017 scaling era, at one point surpassing 50% of global hashpower. While layer-1 scaling was not adopted on Bitcoin at that time, nearly a decade of engineering progress has since been realized through deep optimization and parallelization of the original Satoshi UTXO architecture.
In 2022, BU launched Nexa, a next-generation blockchain designed to incorporate all of these advancements while adding:
-
Native token support
-
Smart contract capabilities
-
Hardware-accelerated full node performance
These capabilities position Nexa as a high-throughput, developer-friendly blockchain rooted in the original UTXO design philosophy.
BU’s current strategic priority is enabling wrapped BTC on the Nexa blockchain—allowing BTC to move seamlessly between Bitcoin and Nexa. This interoperability initiative aims to combine Bitcoin’s monetary strength with Nexa’s high-performance execution environment.
Why Bitcoin MENA Matters
Bitcoin MENA stands apart as the largest Bitcoin conference in the Middle East and North Africa. Much like its U.S. counterpart, the event convenes global thought leaders alongside regional policymakers and institutions, providing a platform where global Bitcoin innovation meets the MENA region’s rapid technological and regulatory momentum.
With Abu Dhabi emerging as a global hub for digital asset development, Bitcoin MENA offers unparalleled strategic access to markets across the Middle East and North Africa—one of the fastest-growing regions in Bitcoin adoption, infrastructure deployment, and regulatory clarity.
Conclusion
Nexa’s sponsorship of Bitcoin MENA 2025 reflects its commitment to advancing global Bitcoin innovation and supporting the vibrant growth of the MENA region within the broader blockchain ecosystem. As the industry looks toward 2026 and further, Nexa and BU remain focused on delivering scalable, interoperable solutions that uphold and expand upon Satoshi’s original technical foundations.
