Community Meetups
We host regular meetups, usually on or close to the 21st of each month at Safari Restaurant — 55 St. Nicholas Ave (corner of 113th Street). All meetups are free and open to everyone.
Education
Our primary goal is education. We are Bitcoin specific; not "crypto". Our monthly meetups feature short conversations covering the basics. What is Bitcoin? How does it work? And what gives it value? Anyone can attend, and all meetups are always free.
Inclusion
Bitcoin is based purely on math and science. It cannot discriminate against anyone, anywhere, based on race, religion, sexual orientation, geographical location, or financial status. It's the people's money — and everyone is welcome to participate.
Circular Economy
The Bitcoin Lightning Network makes it possible to send money anywhere, anytime, with no intermediary, instantaneously, and for nearly free. Credit cards charge 3%+. Wire transfers take days. Bitcoin Lightning helps keep our money in our community.
