Hello!
I'm aware that posts similar to this one don't get much attention here, but I'll give it a try.
I'm Sergei, IT security specialist from Moscow, Russia. I've been interested in Bitcoin for almost two years now; done some amateur scrypt-altcoin mining in 2014. Since fall 2014 I write and translate articles for the leading Russian bitcoin-related website - bitnovosti.com.
I'll be in Berlin for vacation on September 13 - 20. I've heard many times that Berlin is Europe's startup capital and that it has an active bitcoin community. I'll be happy to get to know someone here, take an interview for Bitnovosti or just chat about Berlin's bitcoin scene and bitcoin in general. I know about the monthly meetup at Room77, but unfortunately it doesn't fall in between the dates of my trip. Gonna visit that place anyway though)
PS Just in case: I know German at a decent level, but I'm not sure I can discuss highly technical subjects in German.
Hello to you Sergei. It is a pleasure to hear about people with your spirit and your mind. Open and friendly. The world need more and more people like you. Will a better place. I am not planing to travel in Berlin these times but I cannot stayed to wrote these words when I read your post. It was a pleasure for me read it and I wanted to write my thoughts about it. Hope you will enjoy your stay at Berlin and first of all meet some people like you and discuss about our common passion: bitcoin. Take care.
