Oddbean new post about login | logout I wish there were more meetups in my area. My ultimate goal is to earn sats. Trying to figure that out.
No meetups, start one! Promote it by zapping/boosting all your favorite podcasts.
I like this! I need a good project to sink my teeth into. Do you host meetups?
Yes, I host the South bend Indiana meetup. I attend Swmi and grand rapids, colon meetups regularly and get to Chicago, Lansing, Milwaukee at least once a year. I will travel 2 hrs for a meetup no problem, but I have stuff for sale so that helps. The networking is worth it either way.
Found a meetup! Made some friends 🤓👍🏼
This is how it's done! Get out to your local Bitcoin meetup!! nostr:nevent1qqs86d9wjscs6vyqc3ydf97w4075heesm93c7h84cnzp68fapjyr5gcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsygqqy28f3z407ep5ry6jhjy5uecvckzyveu3hs4kzdsc26tg2zereupsgqqqqqqsw7nrcg
Interested in learning more about this. How can I start a local meet up/connect with locals?
I still want to start a meetup too. The one I went to was super casual and we just chatted about whatever but eventually it would be cool to host workshops for individuals or businesses, showing how they can start integrating BTC and lightning into their daily lives
Absolutely agreed. I would love to work on getting local businesses to have access of the new system. Then having a local community of bitcoiners who frequent these businesses and receive discounts from paying via lighting vs fiat. I’m starting to wrap my head around lightning. I need the smart people to make it dumber for me.
I can’t wait until it’s a daily thing used for local businesses!! Lightning in principle is really cool and very smart but a lot of the software is unstable and not very intuitive to use. It’s constantly being worked on and improved though! Do you run a node?
No i don’t! I’m having a hard time understanding how to set it up and use it. A lot of technical jargon. 😬😬
