Show Notes
Today I talk with Simon and Jason, 2 British Bitcoiners who are involved in organising meetups and events throughout the UK, as well as promoting merchant adoption of Bitcoin.
Simon also known as @hodlsolo, is part of the LaserEyesCards project, is the co-founder of Bridge2Bitcoin, and organises the Northhamptonshire Bitcoin meetup.
Jason is the organiser of the Suffolk Bitcoin meetup.
I think there is a lot we can learn, and this conversation provided some great insight into approaches to merchant adoption and engaging with businesses, as well as running successful bitcoin meetups and events.
