# Plot, tag and spotlight every Bitcoin community!
Unlike OpenStreetMap (OSM) merchant data, communities live inside the BTC Map database and can only be edited by admins. Grab a keyboard, ping us on [Matrix](https://matrix.to/#/#btcmap:matrix.org), or fire off an [email](mailto:hello@btcmap.org) if you'd like to join the admin crew and help get every Bitcoin community around the world on the map.

### 3. Verify the community
Make sure the group is active and laser-focused on bitcoin only. We skip whole country entries; if someone submits one, suggest they create a community organization that multiple communities can be tagged with. Overlapping or multiple communities in the same city/region are totally fine.
### 4. Check logo
To display your community logo on the [communities webpage](https://btcmap.org/communities/africa), please send us your current logo via [email](mailto:hello@btcmap.org) or [Discord message](https://discord.com/invite/9mHeTgX2zb). The file format can be .jpeg, .png, or .svg. For best results, the logo should be approximately square (400 x 400px), since it will be cropped into a circle.
