Bitcoin Developers LA (BitDevsLA)

Happy New Year LA Bitcoiners! We are thrilled to host our first #Bitcoin meetup for 2025. Join us Friday, 1/24 from 6-8pm at Paper or Plastik. Please note we've moved it to a weekday night as requested by many of our members. RSVP below! 👇👇👇 meetup.com/bitdevsla/even…

NEW: Bitcoin network difficulty just dropped 11.16% 😮 That marks the 10th largest negative difficulty adjustment in history. The move reflects widespread miner shutdowns across the US over the past two weeks, as operators powered down to ease stress on electric grids during severe storms and an intense cold snap.

Voltage just powered the first publicly reported $1M Lightning Network transaction.
