Curious about Bitcoin’s Lightning Network, or have never heard of it? Swing by SF Bitcoin Wednesdays to try out the fastest payment network in the world!
It’s recommended that you download Phoenix Wallet (iOS / Android) and deposit $10 or so before showing up. If you aren’t able to, we’ll have a loaner phone that you can play with.
Once you’re set up, you’ll get to run the wallet through its paces with a handful of Lightning-enabled apps and websites.
Bitcoin’s Lightning network has been online since 2016 and allows its users faster, cheaper, and more private payments. You can learn more at https://lightning.network/
No interest in Lightning? Come by anyway! This will be the usual Ace’s Bitcoin meetup we all know and love.
SF Bitcoin Wednesdays is a repeating, monthly gathering of bitcoiners; a beacon of bitcoin hope in the middle of the week. All experience levels welcome, no agendas, no shitcoins. Newbs and OG’s welcome.
