👋 **Hei, kamu yang lagi ngeliatin chart merah dan nggak tau harus ngapain...** ​ Diam? Jual? Nunggu? Kebanyakan orang milih panik. Tapi ada satu kebiasaan sederhana yang justru paling powerful dilakuin pas kondisi lagi kayak gini — dan namanya DCA. 📉➡️📈 ​Di meetup kali ini kita bakal ngobrol santai soal **manfaat strategi DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) saat fase bear market**—cara sederhana yang sering dipakai banyak orang untuk tetap konsisten tanpa harus pusing menebak harga. 📉 ​Kita bahas bagaimana DCA bekerja, kenapa strategi ini sering dianggap lebih tenang di tengah pasar yang naik turun, dan bagaimana cara melihatnya dari perspektif jangka panjang. ​ Nggak perlu jadi trader atau ahli market. Cukup datang dengan rasa penasaran, ngobrol bareng komunitas, dan lihat bagaimana strategi sederhana bisa membantu menghadapi pasar dengan lebih tenang. ​🧡 Karena di Bitcoin, konsistensi sering kali lebih penting daripada mencoba menebak waktu yang “sempurna”. ​Sampai jumpa di meetup! ​ 📌 Info Penting:🔸 Tiket **GRATIS**, tapi peserta beli makan/minum sendiri selama acara🔸 Tidak ada promosi altcoin, NFT, token, atau proyek “kripto” lainnya🔸 100% tentang **Bitcoin** — teknologi, nilai, dan potensinya untuk dunia 🔗 **Tentang Kami**🟠[ Bitcoin Indonesia ](https://x.com/bitcoinindo21)adalah inisiatif nirlaba yang bertujuan untuk:🕊️ Menyebarkan pemahaman soal **Bitcoin** sebagai alat pembebasan individu⚖️ Mendorong **kedaulatan finansial** lewat edukasi netral dan jujur📚 Menyediakan konten edukasi **open-source & gratis** untuk semua **📲 Telegram: [https://t.me/+OIIRyKQmvJY0MWFk](https://t.me/+OIIRyKQmvJY0MWFk)** **📸 Instagram: [https://instagram.com/bitcoinindo21](https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinindo21)** **🌐 Website: [https://bitcoinindonesia.xyz](https://bitcoinindonesia.xyz/)**

👋 **Hei, kamu yang penasaran Bitcoin bisa dipakai buat apa selain disimpen...** ​Pernah kepikiran nggak kalau Bitcoin bukan cuma soal beli, simpan, atau trading? Ada satu konsep yang sering dibahas di komunitas: **sirkular ekonomi** — ketika Bitcoin benar-benar dipakai, berputar, dan hidup di tengah aktivitas sehari-hari. ​Di meetup kali ini, kita bakal ngobrol santai tentang bagaimana praktik sirkular ekonomi bisa mulai tumbuh dari komunitas. Mulai dari menggunakan Bitcoin untuk transaksi, mendukung merchant yang menerima Bitcoin, sampai membangun kebiasaan baru yang membuat ekosistemnya makin kuat. ⚡ ​Kalau kamu penasaran bagaimana Bitcoin bisa benar-benar “dipakai”, bukan cuma disimpan — ini tempat yang pas buat mulai ngobrol. ​Datang buat diskusi, pulang dengan perspektif baru tentang bagaimana ekonomi yang lebih terbuka bisa dibangun bersama. 🧡 ​Sampai ketemu di meetup! 🧡🚀 ​​ 📌 **Info Penting:** 🔸 Tiket **GRATIS** (peserta beli makan/minum sendiri) 🔸 **NO** promosi altcoin, NFT, atau token lainnya 🔸 100% bahas **Bitcoin** — teknologi, filosofi, dan potensinya 🔗 **Tentang Kami** 🟠 *[Bitcoin Indonesia](https://x.com/bitcoinindo21)*[ ](https://x.com/bitcoinindo21)adalah komunitas nirlaba yang ingin: 📚 Menyebarkan edukasi netral soal Bitcoin 🕊️ Mendorong kebebasan dan kedaulatan individu 🤝 Buka ruang diskusi sehat dan terbuka untuk semua **📲 Telegram: [https://t.me/+OIIRyKQmvJY0MWFk](https://t.me/+OIIRyKQmvJY0MWFk)** **📸 Instagram: [https://instagram.com/bitcoinindo21](https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinindo21)** **🌐 Website: [https://bitcoinindonesia.xyz](https://bitcoinindonesia.xyz/)**

On March 14th this year, **BENDERA PUSAKA PARK** was officially opened by the Governor of DKI Jakarta along with Megawati Soekarnoputri, the 5th President of the Republic of Indonesia. This Park in South Jakarta combines three iconic parks—Ayodya Park, Langsat Park, and Leuser Park—into a single, integrated 5.6-hectare green open space (RTH). They have a beautiful Skybridge, free sports facilities + playgrounds, and are open 24 hours. We'll start from **Gate D** (in front of Tuang Coffee), and then take a break at **Ayodya Park** watching the sunset before heading to the restaurant for dinner. Here is the meeting point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/BDtDzXPgo9Cg6wco7 If you want to join only for dinner at the venue (see below 👇🏽), it's possible, but it's your responsibility to find the group and wait to have a free seat at the restaurant, etc. (the group cannot wait for you!) **We have organised this event before!

Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle. Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself. **ABOUT THE EVENT** Join this **very special event** and take a look at **luxury cars** (Ferrari, Porsches, and more) before heading up to a **cozy rooftoop café & resto** with a stunning view of the **elevated** **MRT train** and the **JakSel skyline**, have a bite and drink with fellow Jakarta Friends and play a few rounds of **free pool (billiard)** in this fabulous terrace overlooking the city! An informal and intimate evening where we favour **authentic connections** **and conversations** instead of big, loud group where you don't manage to go past the superficial "where are you from" and "what do you do" questions. When checking in, everyone will be reminded not to use their phone. This is an event were we disconnect and enjoy each other presence! **No phones are allowed for the duration of the event!** Will you manage? 😉 This is a unique event with **very limited places** as the café is small. There's a table reserved for us inside (airco & non-smoking). First-timers are particularly encouraged to join! Reserve your spot today and make sure you update your RSVP if you cannot come. No show = kicked from the group. Our events are **introvert friendly** and we favour authenticity! Everyone is always welcome to join our events. For this event, we have chosen a small café with an astonishing view and a delicious and diverse food menu. The location is excellent and the view of the MRT train passing a few meters away is absolutely epic. At the entrance of the building there is a shop for luxury cars and you are invitated to take a stroll and feel free to buy one 😉 Be prepared to identify yourself with ID at the entrance for security reasons. Then you can head up with the elevator to the rooftop terrace (having both an inside area with airco and outside/smoking area with pool table). A table is reserved for us under the name "MeetUp". The event starts at 6.30 PM and I strongly recommend to arrive on time. The kitchen closes at 8 PM for the last order. Don't be late and don't miss this opportunity to have an authentic evening with locals and international new friends.

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized!

Communication is everything in life You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate.
