I live in Reading.  Is a London meet-up totally out of the question?


We had a London meet-up last night (may 28th)

About 40-50 of us turned up and there were presentations/pitches about different Bitcoin projects and ideas.

It was really interesting to meet loads of other Bitcoiners all from different backgrounds.
(hello to any of them reading this)

I ended up going back to Bit Towers with Amir and his gang and had a great night.
(thanks for the hospitality guys)



Looking forward to the next.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

You must be joking.

The London meet-up last night was great. At least 40 people and including presentations of new ideas and the filming of a documentary.

And attended by some of the UK most prominent Bitcoiners.

What more could you ask for?

Ha Ha very good

But seriously, I personally met and chatted with people from Canada, France, Spain, Holland, Lithuania, Poland and Egypt as well as people from the local area.

I travelled from wales after being invited to do a presentation and it was well worth the trouble.

Keep an eye on this if you fancy coming next month...  http://www.meetup.com/London-bitcoin-meetup/events/119687892/

Anyone else in the wilds of the West Country ? I'm in Somerset.

Note to the London guys: if you need a professional to help with your documentary let me know. I've worked in mainstream broadcast TV as a director for over 30 years. I have a DSLR video kit and Avid for editing. Sounds interesting

Interested in keeping tabs on this one.

I'm in the Northwest near to Manchester, I wont be able to get to Sheffield for tomorrows meetup, however I think having a few across the country is a good thing.

How about an overarching "group" for UK wide bitcoiners, with a sub group for the north and south, the more places people can meet the better Smiley

Next London meet-up is on Sunday 23rd June at The Penbury Tavern, Hackney.

This venue was chosen mainly because they accept Bitcoin.

 Shocked

I was just going to suggest that there is more interest than those willing to attend meetings - me being one.. but The Penbury Tavern is tempting! Not sure if I'll be around 23rd but if so, might drop by.

If it's half as good as last week's meeting it will be well worth a visit.


Especially with the novelty of being able to spend Bitcoin on beer.  Smiley
