Quote of the Day
“A lot of people automatically dismiss e-currency as a lost cause because of all the companies that failed since the 1990’s. I hope it’s obvious it was only the centrally controlled nature of those systems that doomed them.”

This is a BITCOIN ONLY event, and anyone shilling shitcoins or NFTs will be escorted out of the venue with no refund of tickets but with a few acronyms like GFY and HFSP.
