What we’re about
Bay Area Bitcoiners is a casual group for bitcoin lovers, learners, and newbs. We get together regularly around the Bay-Area to meet like-minded friends and discuss all things bitcoin over a beer or two.

Curious about Bitcoin's Lightning network, or have never heard of it? Swing by this week to try out the fastest payment network in the world! It's recommended that you download Phoenix Wallet (iOS link - Android link) and deposit $10 or so before showing up. If you aren't able to, we'll have a loaner phone that you can play with.
Once you’re set up, you’ll get to run the wallet through its paces with a handful of Lightning-enabled apps and websites.
Bitcoin's Lightning network has been online since 2016 and allows its users faster, cheaper, and more private payments. You can learn more at https://lightning.network/
No interest in Lightning? Come by anyway! This will be the usual Ace's Bitcoin meetup we all know and love.

This is a repeating, monthly gathering of bitcoiners; a beacon of bitcoin hope in the middle of the week. All experience levels welcome, no agendas, no shitcoins. Newbs and OG's welcome.
