It was pretty cool to see Mayor Ken Sim show up at the party and buy a bunch of pizzas for everyone.
Itβs one thing to come to meetups while on the campaign trail, but another to just show up to hang out and eat pizzas with plebs!
Being moderately technical and usually up to date, when gen-Z friends struggle with technology, nothing brings me more joy than calling them boomers.
Iβm probably just grappling with getting old myself π
@npub1th5g...mnel meetup recording from a couple weeks ago!
@Roberto Rios (Peruvian Bull) Shares his thoughts on Macro, and the endgame for the dollar.
I intend to record and share all of our meetups with presentations or interviews moving forward! I hope you enjoy!
I was very excited m to see Web Summit being held in Vancouver for this first time: putting our city as the meeting place for people working on revolutionary ideas.
Quantum, AI, high tech manufacturing! Crypto? Blockchain?
Where. Is. Bitcoin?
While states sign bills into law, and 100s of companies and new business models are created as Bitcoin becomes integrated into the financial system, there seems to be a total lack of awareness of something that we understand is as big , if not bigger than AI.
Itβs a bit of a reality check as to how far outside the zeitgeist bitcoin actually exists in the tech world.
It makes me want to rally and throw a bitcoin party during web summit to let people know that we are here, and to maybe open some minds perhaps a moment earlier than they inevitably will be.
One year as a cafe with a bitcoin treasury.
We have accepted ~$5000 CAD in BTC payments, mostly during meetups. Weβve distributed over ~$550 CAD in BTC tips to our barista team and spent a couple hundred with other merchants.
We currently hold ~$7,300CAD equivalent of BTC on our balance sheet, a growth of around 45% during that period.
