I just got back to Hamburg from my short trip to Berlin, where I attended the Bitcoin Exchange Meetup, but I have to admit that I did not necessarily come to talk about Bitcoin, but rather meet some awesome people, fellow Steemers and talk about... STEEMIT!
I had a great time and even though I might have looked out of place and probably some guys were thinking "what is she doing here" I felt welcomed, enjoyed talking to like-minded people and listening to the presentations.
Here is a picture of the group and some of the speakers:
featuring @fabio @capitalism @aaronkoenig
I was amazed by the presentation Felix Weis „the bitcoin traveler“ in which he shared his story, traveling around the world using trading bitcoin only, his experiences in different countries, discussing the value of money VS. bitcoin. His presentation was very interesting and fascinating especially for someone like me who hasn’t really been involved in cryptocurrency before Steemit.
Felix in action:
Afterwards, it was time for STEEMIT! @capitalism took over and held a presentation on the history, functions and system of Steemit. He explained Steemit to the audience and answered some questions. We had a nice talk, exchanged thoughts and definitions.
I enjoyed his humorous comment as I joined the talk „Steemit is like Bitcoin just with women“.
@capitalism in action:
A big thank you goes to @fabio for inviting me
, @knozaki2015 @capitalism and
@aaronkoenig for your features and kind words.
Overall it was an awesome exchange of experiences, opinions and thoughts and
great to meet all of you in real life :)
Check out @aaronkoenig author of "Bitcoin: Geld ohne Staat"(Bitcoin: money without government), he's such a nice and fun guy in person!
@capitalism @aaronkoenig and Felix (hopefully soon to join Steemit)
Thanks to everyone for making the meetup happen! I know I'm a little late but I guess better late then never :)
You all are kindly invited to our FIRST STEEMIT MEETUP IN HAMBURG on September 2nd ! I hope to see some of you again!

Yeah, that cool evening converted me into a steemer, haha :) And it felt good not to be the "only woman at another cryptocurrency event"!

Danke für deinen Kommentar, ich glaube mittlerweile würde ich persönlich eher in Steem investieren. Bitcoin ist natürlich immer gut, aber ich sehe sehr viel Potenzial in Steem... just a thought

Ich sehe Bitcoin inzw. als eine Art Meta-Cryptowährung. Vielleicht ein bißchen vergleichbar mit dem "Petro-Dollar", auch wenn ich den Vergleich jetzt nur ungern ziehe.
BC ist durch den Netzwerkeffekt soweit vorangeschritten, daß ich sogar das Potential sehe, daß in 10 Jahren damit riesige Transaktionen zwischen Staaten und Konzernen abgewickelt werden, während Steem und Co im Vergleich dazu eher die Rolle von "Nationalwährungen" einnehmen wobie BC die Schnittstelle ist.

Wie siehst Du folgendes: Das was ich an Steem anfangs einfach nicht kapiert habe, erscheint mir nun genial. Die konstruieren ihre Haupwährung STEEM wie eine heisse Kartoffel, nur um aus dem System rein- und rauszukommen. Damit dürfte höchstens Steem Power sowas wie eine "Reserve" darstellen. Das bedeutet, dass Steem garkeine Konkurrenz zu BTC, Dash etc. darstellt, sondern sie wunderbar ergänzt. Damit wäre Steemit das erste neue Crypto-Projekt, was extra nicht Bitcoin angreift und ersetzen will, sondern auf friedliche Koexistenz setzt.

Sehe ich quasi exakt so und ist mit der Haupgrund, warum Steem die erste Crypto-Währung ist die ich neben BC besitze.
Weil der Konkurrenzzug ist mMn aus vielen Gründen abgefahren.

In Österreich kannst Du dank coinfinity.co Bitcoin an hunderten Traffiken kaufen. Ihr habt sogar ATMs. Österreich ist glaub ich diesbezüglich das beste Land Europas (Verfügbarkeit von BTC).

By the way, Oak & Ice is not the first café that accepts Bitcoin in Berlin, but as far as I know it is the first ice cream parlour. And for sure the best!
