The Berlin Bitcoin Meetup says "Danke Steemit!"

in steemit •  8 years ago 

As previously announced here and here, I went to the Berlin Bitcoin Meetup yesterday with the 0.3 BTC I earned through Steemit to pay for beers and burgers. 

Here is my burger and boy, it was as delicious as in 2012, when I bought my first one with Bitcoin there:



People were very interested in Steemit and I am confident, that we will see more Steemians from Berlin in the next couple of weeks. 

We had a whole lot of fun, as usual at Room77. So much fun, that I have a nasty headache and actually do not want to write at all, but I promissed...so here are two more pictures

 :-)

As a wonderful night came to an end, I paid the BTC under the vigilant eyes of my auditor @teambitwala. You can check the transaction here: http://blockr.io/tx/info/778b7850853dd52d459f0604f64edbdc66d805f49c05eff9bee31ec823afe424

It was a whole lot of fun and a big success, so thanks again, Steemit.

Danke!

looks like you guys have fun , wish i could be beside you guys for a drink , cheers :)

You just earned some drinks just by saying that hahahaha

Great pictures, looks like a fun meet up! Needs more girls, ;)

WoW that's a really cool idea! We should consider doing more meetups everywhere in Europe to get more people into Steemit and discuss it there face to face with others and share interesting steemit stories! :)

Nice initiative!

Just to clarify, this was the regular monthly Bitcoin meetup in Berlin, probably the longest steady Bitcoin meetup in the world. We just celebrated our 5th anniversary last month. New ideas (beside Bitcoin) have come and gone, maybe steemit will stick around a little longer. :D

Ahh, that's cool! I'd love to join one of those meetups some time in the future. Maybe it would help my german get up to speed again, hehe. (haven't used it in many years :P)

Only a little bit. Most attendees do speak English.

I was thinking of looking for meetups where blogger meet and introduce it to them. It`s all rather easy to understand and do for Bitcoiners, but not as easy for "normal" bloggers

"but not as easy for "normal" bloggers"

That's true, even though Steemit makes it really easy for non-blockchain people they may have a hard time understanding what they are earning and how they can withdraw or deposit into their accounts safely and securely. I hope Steemit will announce some "stickied" posts soon for the guides to be visible easier to newcomers instead of them having to google search for it now.

@fabio, was fabian aka @xeroc there?
Good stuff regardless!
Cheers!

I don`t think so, is he german or american? He would have spoken with me about steemit I would guess.

@fabio STEEMIT is going to be a game changer for all crypto currency. Keep spreading the word about Steemit.com
Full $TEEM Ahead!
@streetstyle

I`m slowly starting to realize how insanely cool this thing could become...

Yes @fabio , this is only the beginning. Yesterday, Jeff Berwick of the Dollar Vigilante joined STEEMIT. He has a big following, is a multi-millionaire and now a Steemit Member. This will turn alot of heads. I posted about it in my blog

Macht mal nen Trip nach Holland Whopper for free :-)

Burger King accepts bitcoin
The well-known fast food company, Burger King, has started to accept bitcoin among its allowed payment methods, but only in Arnhem, Netherlands.

Located in the city center of Arnhem, this Burger King venue will accept bitcoin and anyone that will pay with in this way will receive a second burger (a whopper) for free.

What a pity I wasn't there. But it's fine because a lot of more meetings will follow.
In other words: Tschüß und bis zum nächsten mal :)

Bitcoins + Burger klingt echt gut. :) Wenn Berlin nicht so weit weg wäre.

Das nächste Treffen ist am 1. September, bis dahin schaffst Du es nach Berlin. :D

ja schaun wir mal :D ....letztes bitcoin meeting auf dem ich war, war letztes jahr in amsterdam also wirds eigentlich mal wieder zeit aber momentan steht zuviel arbeit an

Thank you for the beer, @Fabio and #steemit! Here's to blockchain eternity!

...and beyond!!

Room77 is a nice place to spend Bitcoin. Too bad they removed their Lamassu ATM.

They had to, as far as I know. Regulation.

Dann mal ein herzliches Willkommen an alle, die dadurch zu Steemit finden! :)

I love that you paid with BTC and are able to show the transaction.

The Future is Here ... and it's steem'in.

@fabio nice to see fun with the meetups 8]

Awesome @fabio ! I translated your previous nice and clear story to introduce germany to steemit (and added some of my own idea's...hope you dont mind) in my own language, dutch. Managed to get it published in a magazine over here in the Netherlands soon! :D You can find it here: https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@linnie/amsterdam-meet-steemit-an-introduction-for-the-dutch-nederlandstalig

Greetings from your neighbours in the Netherlands!

Lets spread the word and make the world meet steemit!
