Come join us for a #Bitcoin presentation and discussion on increasing Bitcoin adoption in your community at the BTC Manitoba meetup.
"Local Bitcoinization. Transforming your local community with Sats."
Saulo Quinteiro from Sats Capital, a Bitcoin company that's working to build a Bitcoin ecosystem in Brazil will give a talk on bitcoinizing a community and how they are increasing the adoption and use of Bitcoin as a means of exchange and store of value.
Saulos presentation will cover some ways on how to bitcoinize your community and show you how it is possible to do this not only for the purpose of bringing Bitcoin to everyone, but also how everyone can earn Sats in the process.
Come enjoy some food and drink with bitcoiners as we learn and discuss Bitcoin adoption and circular economies.
Whether you're a complete beginner or have some knowledge of Bitcoin, this meetup is about people coming together to share, learn and connect on all things Bitcoin.
All levels of experience are welcome, so come and join for engaging discussions on Bitcoin.

In the 1960's GM was trying to get the freight cost down on Vegas to keep them a budget friendly car.
At the time, a new Vega had a price tag around $2,000. Engineers from GM and Southern Pacific Railroad came up with the Vert-A-Pac. This allowed 30 cars to be shipped per boxcar instead of 18. Lowering freight costs by up to 40%.
GM engineers also designed specific oil baffles to keep oil from spilling along with specially designed carburetors, batteries and added plastic spacers between the powertrain and the chassis to prevent damage.

In 1991 the internet was just getting started.
99% of the population looked at it the same way they look at bitcoin today.
They dismiss it because they don't understand it because it's like nothing people have ever seen before.
Bitcoin is a brand new invention. A protocol for digital money.
Before Bitcoin, peer to peer digital money didn't exist.
This idea is too big for the average person to comprehend because we've always understood money to be something that belongs to governments and not to the people.
And just like how this "computer web" that changed billions of lives, Bitcoin is going to do it again but this time the tech is giving power back to the people rather than governments.
All 8 billion of us can have money not controlled by the governments and global elites.
Bitcoin is freedom money.
Bitcoin is the People's money. I study bitcoin
Study #Bitcoin   
It's going to change the lives of billions.

Mining is what makes #Bitcoin special.
It’s the mechanism that underpins the decentralized clearing house by which transactions are validated and cleared.
It's also the mechanism that secures the entire Bitcoin system enabling network-wide consensus without any central authority.
