Beyond BTC I would love to build a local network based on v4v. I think BTC is a common thread to start finding those folks.

I started a freedom cell here 3 years ago (offshoot of the greater metro one I'm in) and we do a lot of skill shares and trades. A few of us are btc users. Some want to learn how, but haven't prioritized it.
We weren't based on btc, we all found each other and got together during the height of the covaids hysteria.
