At 28th of May in 2014 we started with 15 merchants accepting Bitcoin.. how much we have grown since!

This Sunday, May 28th 2017 we celebrate 3 years of Arnhem Bitcoin City and look back at the milestones this project has achieved... or let's just share your Arnhem memories!

When did you visit the Bitcoincity for the first time?

SCHEDULE (subject to change)

• We gather @ Rose's Lounge at 15:00

• After some time (drinks and chats) we move to a different venue to eat; 18:30 / 19:00

• Pitch time; 20:00

• Around 21:00 we move to a different location; one of the few hunderd Bitcoin acceptants.. so it is still to be decided!

PITCHES

About 10 minutes per subject:
