I got into #BTC years ago because of #MeetUp
I joined a group of #BTC miners, when bitcoin wasn't a thing yet, the leader of the group would rent a hotel room or a villa, for us to go mining from, bring your own laptop, everyone chips in for the #foodstr like one will order pizza, another will order chicken wings, drinks, or chip in, but I was the youngest, barely a curious, nerdy teenager who loved to surf strange stuff like bitcoin back then, so they treated me like a unicorn. Looking back, #MeetUp set me up. I also joined a travel group back then, #MeetUp to me was to join interest groups, never for hook-ups, like some people did, I guess, but I've seen a lot of interest groups fold down, no active members, leaders going inactive, etc so consistency should be a thing for a meet up group to thrive
