We'll offer a Q&A session for beginners or anyone who might want to fill some of the gaps they might have about what Bitcoin is and how it works, be it related to technology, finance, economics, or any other aspect. After all, there are still a lot of common misconceptions floating around, not only in the mainstream media, but also in the "crypto-space". Also we'll discuss current news and the latest hot topics in research and development.

We're trying this as a real-life meeting again, open-air in a park (Englischer Garten), as the weather forecast predicts the comeback of summer after all.

There won't be any beamer or screen, so bring your mobile device with the battery well-loaded if you want to follow along the material being shared!

What else to bring: Food and drinks if you want, suitable clothing, and a blanket to sit on is recommended. Dixi toilets are available. After the main session we can go to the Mini-Hofbräuhaus close-by if you like.

Material: Please everyone bring 5 weblinks or documents about things you want to discuss! Can be general articles from the mainstream press, or articles about the technological, economics or philosophical aspects in bitcoin-related media and blogs, also book summaries, essays, academic papers, and so on. No promotional material, no xyzcoin "whitepapers" please! Here's the pad we're using, feel free to browse the weblinks already provided, and feel free to add questions or weblinks yourself before or during the session: https://ffmuc.net/pad/p/satoshis21-2021-07

This is our in-depth, no-nonsense seminar series Satoshi's 21, which will take place every 21st of a month in various different locations (hackspace, co-working space, conference room, or similar), or online if circumstances so require.

We'll have one or more selected topics concerning Bitcoin's technology, security, ongoing software development, business opportunities and challenges, economics, monetary theory, or its societal and political impact. Some preparation work might be required from participants in order to make the most out of the seminar.

Satoshi's 21 stands for:

  • Every 21st of a month so that weekdays rotate
  • 21 participants is the targeted and ideal working group size, but we could be more, we could be fewer
  • And of course: honoring Bitcoin's monetary supply of 21 hundred trillion sats!
