- Berkeley - Bitcoin MeetupEspresso Roma cafe , Berkeley, CA
Come meet us at Espresso Roma Cafe for tea with other bitcoiners! This is a casual event to meet other local bitcoiners on the weekend (Saturday from 2:00-4:00 pm).
If this is your first time at one of our meetups, we have a simple guideline to enhance everyone’s experience:
- Our meetups and events have a singular focus: Bitcoin. All of our topics and discussions will be centered around Bitcoin, the global monetary network, and bitcoin, the reserve asset. If you are interested in crypto tokens, stocks, blockchains, altcoins, alternative investing, NFTs, etc. that is completely fine. There are a number of other meetups to join. This meetup however is just focused on Bitcoin.
All levels welcome! Please RSVP as space will be limited.
