Title: "Satoshi Square" local in-person bitcoin exchanges "Currency Exchange" subcats?
Post by: Micon on July 27, 2013, 06:52:53 PM
So we've been seeing more and more of these "Satoshi Square" articles where there is a set physical time/day of the week where humans gather to anonymously in-person trade btc, sort of early NYSE-style right in a public place.  This is happening in NYC & San Fran that I have read this week, and I'm sure is going on in many other cities.

Why not aid this on the biggest btc forums?

Marketplace>Currency Exchange is perfect to make sub-forums for major cities.  Let's start with the 1's that already have a living, breathing "Satoshi Square" and let's get trusted forum members to monitor their city's sub-category & start more of these.

I'm down to lead the Las Vegas one, and the Aria Sportsbook Saturday afternoons seems perfect :)

Dude I'm down, I'm in Vegas and I got about 15 coins I'm looking to sell in person. Would also like to meet some other cool people in this town. Lmk what's up here or pm, and if you are looking for a few coins.
