If people aren't spending Bitcoin at your Bitcoin conference, is it even a Bitcoin conference?
Adopting Bitcoin Cape Town had a total of 356 attendees, including volunteers, staff, organizers, etc.
A total of 490 Bitcoin transactions were made, spending 1 601 729 sats. Thus an average of 1.4 transactions per attendee, spending ~3k sats per tx. Enough for 2 coffees.
