UK #bitcoin titans @CoinCorner join the fray with their newly-formed team, CheckYourCoinCorners. We hear there's a few CSGO veterans in their squad, so their opponents will definitely want to be checking those corners, as well as their six!
On Sat, 23rd Sep, we're working with @pacificbitcoin & @Swan to put on an action-packed day of CS:GO competition, with up to 16 teams from the #bitcoin community battling to claim 21M sats + VIP tickets to the festival. Only 8 slots left, so register asap! orangeleague.pacificbitcoin.com
We’ve teamed up with @Its_Lolly_Ltd to bring #Bitcoin functionality to all Lolly tills and kiosks!
A first for the hospitality industry, the LollyPoS platform will allow merchants to take bitcoin payments for food and drink, alongside traditional cash and card methods.
Prior to joining @CoinCorner I took a career break and a year ago today I had the pleasure of visiting this amazing place! Queenstown, New Zealand on Lake Wakatipu 😍🇳🇿
The team are working to add any final notes to the 2024 plan and we hope to announce it soon!
In short we hope to raise the funds to move to a Manchester based site and operate maximum impact operation (Opening 6 days a week, offering all services, bill board promotion around Manchester etc) BUT estimates put this as very costly (3 year projection is around 450k (For the 3 years not a yearly cost) !)
So of course we are ensuring we have other options should we not hit this target!
Satoshi's Place may have been one mans idea and supported (Decision & management wise) by a small (Awesome) group BUT without folk visiting it, spending Sats and Dirty Fiat at it, promoting it, giving feedback, volunteering then we wouldn't even be thinking about a Manchester site!
We are thinking to maybe explore a dual raise (Both a Bitcoin raise and something like a GoFund page) with benefits for folk who support us but we also need folk who will be able to support us on site (Management wise)
If anyone wants to review the 2024 writeup please get in touch.
More details coming soon!
@Jcastweet@StarlingBank@monzo@KrooBank Not going to be Starling I don't think. They're currently the only bank that doesn't allow on or off-ramp to exchanges.
Which 🇬🇧 ‘challenger’ bank is going to embrace #Bitcoin if you’re not going to then you will become the ‘challenged’within a few years. @StarlingBank@monzo@KrooBank
@JosiasCarbon@hbaldwin@bitcoinpolicyuk BTW @JosiasCarbon - did you know that @OxCityFC and @CoinCorner got a shout out in the evidence we gave to Parliament?🙌
Obviously it's a shame that Bitcoin has no use and no value, and I'm very glad the Treasury were able to point this out to us.
