@bayareabtc @LakeBitcoin @SFLightningDevs @PresidioBitcoin There is a meetup tonight! meetu.ps/e/PqH1Z/b9bFd/i

@LakeBitcoin @SFBitcoinDevs @SFLightningDevs @PresidioBitcoin 👋

Hello 👋 @bayareabtc @SFBitcoinDevs @SFLightningDevs and @PresidioBitcoin , we have a team member visiting. Hopefully we can build bridges 😀…

Friends, I’m hosting another Programming Lightning workshop at the stunning @PresidioBitcoin! During this 1-day workshop, we'll build a Lightning channel from scratch. Along the way, we'll leverage the following educational tools to ensure that participants come away with a deep understanding of topics such as asymmetric commitment transactions, revocation keys, HTLCs, and more: - Coding exercises - Socratic method (question-driven learning) - LOTS of diagrams - Small-group discussions, where participants teach each other to reinforce concepts collaboratively

Welcome to our live show! x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

want to take a second and help cross-pollinate the local bitcoin groups that are active in the Bay Area. There are 4 primary brands running in-person Bitcoin meetups: Bay Area Bitcoiners SF Bitcoin San Francisco Bitcoin Developers San Francisco Lightning Devs

Heads up: Thursday’s meet up is Digital Garage. meetu.ps/e/P9sbj/b9bFd/i
