Nächstes Treffen: Sonntag, 27. Dezember bis Mittwoch, 30. Dezember ₿🛠️ Bitcoin at the remote Chaos Communication Congress 2020 https://www.meetup.com/Bitcoin-Munich/events/275036476/https://twitter.com/bitcoinmuc/status/1341859258359558144The annual Chaos Communication Congress, organized by the Chaos Computer Club and other volunteers, is one of the largest hacker conferences in the world, peaking at around 17,000 visitors last year. Not only are there great talks and lectures on the main stages, what makes the event especially alive are the hackerspaces and other communities who build so-called "assemblies". This is where they present what they're tinkering on, collaborate, offer workshops, and much more. The "402 Payment Required" aka Bitcoin assembly is present each year as well. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_Communication_Congress- https://events.ccc.de/This year of course, everything's different, but the "remote Chaos Experience" ("rC3") enables us to reach out for an audience here on the meetup platform as well. The tickets (this year for free, or for a donation) are currently (again) "sold out" (December 15th), but the contingent might get stocked up (again) if infrastructure scaling can further be improved. Video streams of the main talks don't require a ticket, and a lot of online workshops and sessions won't require one either. The tickets are largely only necessary to join the multiplayer-game-like 2D environment that connects all the different virtual locations like the main stages and assemblies in a visual way. RSVP here on meetup if you want to let people know you'll be around, or to receive notifications about Bitcoin-related sessions that you might be interested in and want to join. We'll post the ones we organize ourselves as well as additional selected picks and how to join them in the comment section below in time for each day. There'll be technical workshops, likely also discussions and debates about societal aspects and the "difficult" sides of Bitcoin, and probably hang-out sessions where we'll watch relevant talks from the main stages and comment on them from a Bitcoiner's perspective. A virtual version of the traditional "Bitcoin sofa" will be present as well where you can hang out and chat with us about anything. It is usually staffed each day from noon until late at night. Part of the program will double as a Lightning Hacksprint. - https://wiki.fulmo.org/wiki/Lightning_HackSprint_December_2020When: Sunday 27th December to Wednesday 30th December, noon until late at night each day Format: Many presentations, workshops, sessions, and opportunities to just hang out too Language: Bitcoin-related workshops will almost exclusively be in English, maybe some occasional German session. Sofa chat might sometimes be in German. (The main stages have many German talks.) Target Audience: Mostly technical and advanced, depending on the session. The virtual sofa can be approached by newcomers, but it might be assumed you have a hacker/tech background. Streaming/Recording: tbd/tba/depending (Main stages will be streamed of course.) Location: Online, various Free and Open Source video conferencing tools and other environments hosted non-commercially, respecting and preserving privacy.

Nächstes Treffen: Montag, 21. Dezember 2020, 20:00 Uhr ₿🛠️ Satoshi's 21 #009: Financial Cancel Culture ❌ https://www.meetup.com/Bitcoin-Munich/events/273866737/https://twitter.com/bitcoinmuc/status/1330871044681371653This time we'll be joined by "that one privacy girl" and journalist Janine Römer. It's almost holiday season and thus perhaps a good point in time to remember and reflect that Bitcoin is less an invention about eCommerce, but rather one about personal autonomy and sovereignty in financial and other affairs. The focus of the discussion will be financial censorship: how and why people are being "cancelled" from having bank accounts, often without due process or allegations of illegality, and whether Bitcoin may be of help. We will also discuss resisting regulatory capture, the emergence of "blockchain analysis" aka blockchain *surveillance* companies, and much more. Furthermore, Know-Your-Customer (KYC) and even Anti-Money-Laundering (AML) rules seem to be extended more and more to the general tech sector and other sectors as well. Not only does this paint a bleak picture for the future of the right to privacy and free speech; the compliance requirements also increase operating cost, perhaps prohibitively for smaller enterprises to remain competitive. Presenters and notable participants this time include: Janine Römer - https://twitter.com/J9Roem- https://enegnei.github.io/This-Month-In-Bitcoin-Privacy/- https://github.com/EnegneiAnd others. If you want to contribute, please do contact us to be added to the list. This will be a joint session with the Wasabi Research Club. - https://github.com/zkSNACKs/WasabiResearchClubMaterial: tba (will be posted in the comment section below a few days before the event) Format: Presentation / Discussion / Socratic Seminar Language: English Target Audience: Everyone who's interested in the reasons why society needs Bitcoin, in the global landscape of financial regulations, or in political issues around the right to privacy and informational self-determination in general.

Nächstes Treffen: Montag, 21. September 2020, 20:00 Uhr ₿🛠️ Satoshi's 21 #006: Money Printing 💸 https://www.meetup.com/Bitcoin-Munich/events/271827507/https://twitter.com/bitcoinmuc/status/1306194800434176000It's almost a cliché that we think Bitcoin is great because central banks print too much money, but what does that really mean? Is it true, is it really that bad, and how does this process actually work? Stefanie von Jan will walk us through this process much more in-depth than the usual "Stammtisch" level, and give insights if and how Bitcoin can help protect the individual's self-sovereignty. Stefanie holds lectures and seminars about monetary and economics related topics at German universities and is an advocate for Austrian Economics and safe, beneficial technologies. - https://twitter.com/stefanievjanTitle of the talk: On the crossroads between serfdom and freedom - how the monopoly of money creation out of thin air in the fiat system comes with financial enslavement Abstract: In the beginning, we briefly discuss whether we are going into a (Hyper-)inflation, Deflation or Stagflation. In the main part, we discuss the underlying reason for (Hyper-)inflation, namely the extension of the money supply and its mechanisms. It is much easier to understand this concept by first going back in time to the gold standard and seeing how banking worked in a non-fraudulent and a fraudulent gold standard system. The fraudulent banking system has become the norm and eventually the backing of money by gold was completely discarded as it has become clear that more money was created than it was backed with gold. Now the creation of new money by banks and central banks escalated which is performed during two processes namely 1) by credit issuance and 2) by purchasing assets (as in Quantitative Easing). This is done through an „accounting trick“ which is illustrated in the talk. When comparing Bitcoin with the current fiat system, it becomes clear that a monetary system may serve as a means of control or as a means to achieve freedom. Bitcoin is an antithesis to the fiat system and enables financial sovereignty to preserve individual freedom. Finally, we discuss how to best prepare for the upcoming chaos when the unsustainable fiat system falls. [...]

Bitcoin Stammtisch München 🎉 Nächster Special Event: Samstag, 01. August 2020 https://www.meetup.com/Bitcoin-Munich/events/271973432/https://twitter.com/bitcoinmuc/status/1286278728742588417Every August 1st, Bitcoiners around the world are celebrating the UASF Independence Day, which showed that Bitcoin cannot be co-opted by petty business interests. "The biggest takeaway, however, is that Bitcoin Independence Day conveyed who really controls Bitcoin. Its aggregate user base, not the whims of a few mining and corporate oligarchs, are at the helm. This is why we celebrate August 1 — it was Bitcoin’s first major community stress test. And rather than buckle under pressure, the community rose to the occasion." https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/bitcoin-independence-day-how-this-watershed-day-defines-community-consensusIn Munich we'll also come together for this special occasion at Bikini Mitte, a deli and bar that accepts bitcoins, both onchain and via Lightning. Please notice that some COVID-19 restrictions still apply! ### Another worldwide Team Satoshi Freeathlon will take place on this day! http://teamsatoshi.org/wiki/Satoshi_freeathlonMunich Bitcoiners are welcome to join, more info to follow. This event also serves as an arrival and after-party! ### The Bitcoin Awareness Game is gaining a lot of traction worldwide! https://ideasarelikeflames.com/2020/07/01/bitcoin-awareness-stickers/The stickers are open-source, so you can download and print them yourself, but they will also be available tonight! (Bitcoin/Lightning accepted too of course) ### Format: No agenda, just having drinks and good food and hanging out Language: Mostly German, but most of us can also speak English. Please speak up so that we'll know and we can form suitable groups! Target Audience: Everyone is welcome! Newcomers as well as old veterans, but please respect our mission statement on the entry page of our meetup group! Especially, please refrain from investment seeking, sales or unsolicited advertisement of any kind! Streaming/Recording: No Food and drinks: On your own account. Bitcoin + Lightning accepted Location: Bikini Mitte, outside if the weather is nice, otherwise inside. http://www.bikini-mitte.com/How to find us: It's not so big.

Nächstes Treffen: Dienstag, 21. Juli 2020, 19:00 Uhr ₿🛠️ Satoshi's 21 #004: Taproot 🥕 https://www.meetup.com/Bitcoin-Munich/events/271290157/https://twitter.com/bitcoinmuc/status/1283838309983236096Taproot is the name for a set of updates that will soon be activated in Bitcoin via a soft-fork. Among other things and for a start, these updates will improve privacy and on-chain capacity by providing ways such that the available block space can be used more efficiently. Scripts can be more compact and reveal less information, and (with later additional updates) the inputs and outputs of transactions can be aggregated. That means, true and actual on-chain scaling (i.e., not by just increasing the block size). It is generally hoped that for example CoinJoin, which is a method to use Bitcoin in a more private way and a "many-users-to-many-users-in-one-transaction" format, should see more adoption simply because of the lower fees per user, as the available block space is used more efficiently than when all those users submitted many individual "normal" transactions as per usual. This will be the case even more so with the Schnorr signature scheme, as "many-to-many" transactions can then be compacted by aggregating the involved public keys and signatures into one single so-called threshold public key and the corresponding threshold signature, making such an aggregated transaction look indistinguishable from a "normal" transaction, benefiting scalability and privacy even more. (This cross-input aggregation part is what's further down the roadmap though.) Combined with MAST (Merkelized Abstract Syntax Tree), also rather complex scripts ("Smart Contracts") can be made to look indistinguishable from "normal" transactions. More detailed introduction: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/taproot-coming-what-it-and-how-it-will-benefit-bitcoinInstructors and notable participants today include: Michael Folkson, London BitDevs - https://twitter.com/michaelfolksonMany more researchers and developers that are rather prominent in the Bitcoin field will likely chime in.
