About a month ago I came to know about a local meetup about Bitcoin. The group only meets every three weeks and I couldn't attend the first meetup.
The meeting today was at 4:00pm and I had another meeting, which started at 2:00pm. I figured it would be completed by 3:45 at the latest so that I could get to the Bitcoin meetup by the time it started.
Well, my first meeting did not finish until about 4:30pm so I was a good bit late to the Bitcoin meetup. The meeting was in a small office and there were only 9 of us in the meeting.
Some notes from the meeting:
- Everyone preferred Bitcoin to Bitcoin Cash
- Many of the group members do not believe in Ethereum
- There were no females in attendance
- Two of the guys there had heard of Steem/Steemit, but neither were active on it
- All of the members see the future for Bitcoin and Blockchain technology to be extremely bright
- Bittrex seemed to be the preferred exchange
- Many of the members did not invest in altcoins at all and instead stuck with the blue chips
- There was maybe 1 programmer in the bunch and the rest were pure investors
- The average age was probably 35-40 years old
I hope the group will continue to grow and others can learn more about Bitcoin and Blockchain. I have a feeling the group will grow as more people are introduced to cryptocurrencies.
I can't wait for the next meetup in three weeks!
Once you get a taste of freedom with Bitcoin, your life will change forever :)

What does female attendance has to do with this ?
Nice read and information though. :)

Thank you for question and kind words!
Nothing at all it just seemed like an interesting observation! There were a few that RSVP'd to come, but did not show up!
