Meetup: Preparing for Bitcoin forks, discussing why SegWit2x failed.
Details
UPDATE: It was announced Wednesday that efforts for the SegWit2x fork are being suspended. We are still meeting to discuss forks in general and how to prepare for them and what happened in this case.
Greetings.
First I would like to welcome all the new bitcoineers to our group. This year has been a tremendous year of growth for cryptocurrencies around the world and that is also reflected here in this group. We're now averaging anywhere fro 40-70 people at our meetups. That's a 10 fold increase this year, which seems right in line with the price of bitcoin.
For the old bitcoineers here, I want to thank you for your continued interest and support in our community. The vision of having a Blockchain center in Tampa couldn't be realized without you, and what we're building is going to make a big impact, so I want to thank you in advanced for your continued support as we build Florida's first Blockchain center.
While it's not finished, we'll be opening the doors to BlockSpaces. Bare with the work in progress, but I want to start utilizing the space as much as we can.
If you would like, please follow us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/BlockSpaces) and Twitter (https://twitter.com/BlockSpaces_io).
