NOT A MEETUP

🌐 Join us for an evening of exploration and discussion!
This is not a meetup; it’s all about freedom.

📍 Location: Tokyo Bitcoin Base, Yotsuya, Tokyo
🗣️ Language: English only

Dive into topics like Nostr, Bitcoin, privacy, open protocols, cypherpunk culture, and individual freedom. This event is open to anyone interested in discussing technology and culture in English, regardless of fluency.

About the Event

In the mid-2010s, Tokyo was a hub for the international Bitcoin community. Developers, entrepreneurs, and hackers gathered weekly, contributing to the early history of Bitcoin. NOT A MEETUP aims to revive that energy for the 2020s, focusing on returning power to individuals through open and decentralized technologies.
