๐Ÿ’ก Event Summary:
Join us for a Bitcoin on the Beach BBQ Marketplace meetup. We'll have burgers for sale so come with an empty stomach!

We are meeting on a Friday July 3rd @ 5:00pm NOT WEDNESDAY (due to Canada Day conflict).

Bring your own drinks and snacks and come hangout and talk bitcoin as the sun goes down.

๐Ÿ›’ Bitcoin Marketplace: Bring items you'd like to sell for Bitcoin โ€” books, crafts, snacks, drinks, art or anything else. This is a great chance to experience earning Bitcoin, not just buying it!
If anyone wants to load there wallet bring up to $20 cash.

Here's the plan:

  • We'll help everyone set up a Bitcoin hot wallet on your phone (if you haven't already)
  • Bring upto $20 cash to convert into Bitcoin (or earn Bitcoin by selling something!)
  • Bring items to sell and price them in sats โ€” test out being on the other side of a Bitcoin transaction
  • We'll do some test transactions together so you get comfortable sending and receiving
  • Browse what others brought and spend some sats โ€” complete the circular economy
  • By the end, you'll be ready to actually spend (and earn) Bitcoin in the wild
  • The Challenge: Your mission is to spend that Bitcoin before our August meetup! Find a coffee shop, online store, or service that accepts Bitcoin and use it. We'll compare notes next month on what everyone bought.
  • No stress if you're new to this - we'll walk through everything step by step. Just bring the cash and your phone!

ALL KNOWLEDGE LEVELS WELCOME!

๐ŸŒŸ Schedule:
5:30-9:00pm
This event is free.

  • A welcoming environment for newcomers to Bitcoin, providing a great opportunity to learn from experienced enthusiasts.
  • Come and ask some questions...No question is too basic or too complex!

  • A relaxed and friendly atmosphere where everyone is encouraged to participate and learn.
  • This is a Bitcoin only group!!

๐ŸŽ’ What to Bring:

  • Bring your own drinks and snacks (a chair if you want one)
  • Hamburgers will be available for purchase โ€” payment in Bitcoin of course!
  • Items to sell for Bitcoin โ€” price them however you like and see what the market bears!

  • An open mind and a positive attitude
