WM Bitcoin Meetup: East Longmeadow

Meetup #39 packed in a diverse lineup. We told the story of Bitcoin Sign Guy — the man who held up a 'Buy Bitcoin' sign behind Janet Yellen during her 2017 Congressional testimony. We took a look inside the Bitcoin codebase to demystify how it actually works, got a hands-on Bitaxe demo (open-source solo mining hardware), and closed with an unexpected but fascinating topic: the structural parallels between fungal mycelium networks and Bitcoin's decentralized architecture.

The first 30 minutes were for socializing over pizza and drinks before diving into the topics.
