We were lucky to have Wired reporter Bob McMillan come by our second meetup on July 11, 2013 with his photographer to get interviews and take pictures for an article on Bitcoin OTC trading that he was writing. You can now read the article on wired.com

On a damp Thursday night in July, a half-dozen men gather on the steps of San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Gardens, just across from St. Patrick Church on Mission Street. They dress down, mostly wearing the jeans and t-shirts uniform of Bay Area programmers. As the sun sets, they’re trading currency in the fog, selling silver and cash for Bitcoins and other crypto-currencies. Every now and then a new trader wanders by, asking, “Buttonwood?”
Welcome to the quickest, most private way to buy the internet’s most successful digital currency: in-person and face-to-face.
For those interested in joining the Buttonwood SF meetup, you can get all of the info at our meetup.com page
