Bitcoin meetups happen in almost every city. Here’s how to find yours and why they matter:

Where to Look

1. Nostr — search #meetup or ask your local Bitcoiners
2. Meetup.com — search “Bitcoin [your city]”
3. Telegram — Bitcoin [city] groups exist everywhere
4. Signal — encrypted local groups

What Meetups Look Like

• Small (5-20 people): Coffee shop, casual conversation
• Medium (20-50): Restaurant or rented space, maybe a presentation
• Large (50+): Conference-style with speakers

Types of Meetups

• Beginner friendly: “Orange Pill” intro sessions
• Technical: Node running workshops, Lightning channel parties
• Social: Bitcoin pub nights, pizza for sats gatherings

What to Expect

• Open to everyone
• Usually free (maybe buy a round)
• Full of people happy to answer questions
• Great for networking

Organizing Your Own If none exist near you:

1. Pick a venue (coffee shop works)
2. Set a recurring time (first Tuesday?)
3. Post everywhere
4. Bring stickers

Someone has to be first. Why not you?
