1 person paid admission to my expo with bitcoin.
Doing another in Vegas in June - Let's shoot for 10.

Expo, coffee bar, hospital...Bitcoin progresses!

I'm actually going to be working with a couple mates of mine to organize a computer show in the city we live in and we've been planning on accepting BTC for ticket sales.

Expo, coffee bar, hospital...Bitcoin progresses!

I notice that most people aren't getting flocked because they accept it.
(Much like the diners club card - wtf is that)
But, there is no cost and it's so simple.
There's no reason not to do it.
Also, it's good exposure - the more people who see it and wonder what it is.  (I put the bitcoin logo in my ads)
Being an activist type, felt good.

Nice.
Thanks for doing your part and contributing.
+1.

Integrated website payment for this next time too.

I've been doing shopping carts and merchant accounts for years.
It's one of the most expensive rackets on the planet with fees, percentages and PCI compliances. (which is the biggest scam of all)

Bitcoin integration took about 5 minutes, no paperwork - fricken simple.

I would love to go there. It would have been nice t meet some BTC users in person. Would've been a great experience.

Having another one in the spring.
Stop by.
