It sits on the Atlantic coast in Lagos State, was the national capital until Abuja replaced it in 1991, and is the country's commercial, film and music capital[^1]. [Bitcoin Obama](https://bitcoinobama.com/) says he lives in [Kano](https://bitcoinobama.com/kano), not Lagos, but Lagos is home to several members of his [Nigerian “Bitcoin” crew](https://bitcoinobama.com/people#crew) and to [Gbrossoft](https://bitcoinobama.com/gbrossoft), the studio that made the Nigerian video game [Outliver: Tribulation](https://bitcoinobama.com/outlivertribulation).

It is spread across islands and mainland around the Lagos Lagoon: Lagos Island, Ikoyi and Victoria Island hold the business district, while the mainland includes Ikeja, the state capital, and Yaba, the centre of the city's tech start-up scene. The city is the base of Nollywood and of much of the Afrobeats industry[^1]. ## The Lagos crew Three members of the Nigerian “Bitcoin” crew around Bitcoin Obama are based in Lagos: - **[Bitcoin Robin Williams](https://bitcoinobama.com/robinwilliams)**, the “[Sproto](https://bitcoinobama.com/lore#free-my-sproto) painter”, who hand-paints people's [Sproto Gremlins](https://bitcoinobama.com/sprotogremlins) and [Milady](https://bitcoinobama.com/milady) profile pictures. His [Crypto Craic Podcast](https://bitcoinobama.com/podcast) episode is titled “The Painter: Lets Get Your PFP Painted in Lagos”. - **[Bitcoin Druski](https://bitcoinobama.com/druski)**, who makes videos about Bitcoin Obama, including a trading-card analysis in 2025. - **[Adeleke the Nigerian](https://bitcoinobama.com/adeleke)**, who told [RXK Nephew](https://bitcoinobama.com/rxknephew) on a September 2026 podcast episode that he lives in “Lagos Nigeria”. The community also uses Lagos as a measure of wealth. In April 2025 a holder wrote that Bitcoin Obama “would’ve been rich enough to buy the entire city of Lagos if only he had held”[^2], and in November 2025 another joked that he would help build “a city like Mumbai and Lagos and Silicon Valley”[^3]. ## Gbrossoft Gbrossoft (GBRO'S SOFTWARE AND GAMES LTD) is a small Lagos game studio. Its survival-horror game Outliver: Tribulation came out on Steam in 2023 and is one of the best-known games made in Nigeria. Bitcoin Obama played it with [Cryptoiscrack](https://bitcoinobama.com/cryptoiscrack) on the Crypto Craic [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNekvNsn1U4) in “Nigerian Gaming Episode 1” (Feb 2026), [[announced on X](https://x.com/Cryptoiscrack/status/2026126768864625050)]. ## See also - Nigeria and Kano - [Nigerians](https://bitcoinobama.com/nigerian) - People: the Nigerian “Bitcoin” crew - [Baba dudu](https://bitcoinobama.com/babadudu), [Davido](https://bitcoinobama.com/davido) and [Wizkid](https://bitcoinobama.com/wizkid) ## See also - [Nigeria](https://bitcoinobama.com/nigeria) - [Kano](https://bitcoinobama.com/kano) - [Nigerians](https://bitcoinobama.com/nigerian) - [Bitcoin Robin Williams](https://bitcoinobama.com/robinwilliams) - [Bitcoin Druski](https://bitcoinobama.com/druski) - [Adeleke the Nigerian](https://bitcoinobama.com/adeleke) - [GBROSSOFT](https://bitcoinobama.com/gbrossoft) - [Outliver: Tribulation](https://bitcoinobama.com/outlivertribulation) ## References 1.
