I like it, I hope the trend continues. My area typically lags new trends by about five years.

I urge you to check out OPA (orange pill app) to see if there's a local meetup around you. 5 of our last 6 members found us through that.
If there is no one around you, start your own meetup group, even if it's only you for a while. You might be surprised though.
I found our current group through meetup.com but turns out it had fizzled out and had not been meeting for a year. Got a hold of one person and two of us decided to meet. 8 other people showed up out of nowhere. No idea how they found us but we haven't looked back since. YMMV but you gotta be the change and it truly only takes one dedicated and tenancious person to make it happen.
You should send your OPA invite code to nostr:nprofile1qy28wumn8ghj7er9wd3ksmm0d35kueeww4eszvthwden5te0dphhqety94kxjcm9deek2tt2v4nxvun90ykhxctw9e68y7trd3hh2erxd3shyefwvdhk6qgcwaehxw309ahx7um5wghx7an9wfkkjmny9ekx7mqpzfmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ucpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdpkxcmewd35hvegpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqpq6retdn49kf0enggt6z3725ufan0fam9nhrp2lwmfcfud72d83z4qskl2k6 , nostr: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 .

🤙🏽 to be honest I'm not personally involved with nostr:npub1ve8qwrlztemdmnh62jffcr0y9m9dpqgqjdg8ufx7gc3qw5wdk74qyv9ka6, but our club certainly recognizes the value we're getting from it!. nostr:npub1a3zuwhttqgxw340qgupl24jmydnssmht05v48ecm5tvx762d358sexf24q is one of nostr:npub1lhuex5pzy833ekxpvdmjz9k6rvv5763e4h2cgdfsx62egu0wk6hs7yd2ck 's "reps" with them. He'll know more than me!
Well, they have a referral link in your “Refer & Earn” like this:
nostr:npub16retdn49kf0enggt6z3725ufan0fam9nhrp2lwmfcfud72d83z4qkjrvl0 - definitely use nostr:npub1z6uxwev8c8wauc9j8vnjq5gj5n2lpnnm6pq57e68d40w59gz4umqzntvyx link above and sign up on the OPA. Once you are in send a message to anyone within 100 miles of you. It’ll automatically show you who is inside of that area. Then, hopefully someone will message you back and you can potentially start your own meetup…. Or possibly find one that already exists. I remember I had about 6 straight meetups of 1 or 2 people only showing up. It takes time and consistency. The thing is, for me, I craved that common connection that Bitcoin brings out in people. You’ll be amazed at the friends you can meet. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
Agreed. We did the same. Great app.
Does your group have a nostr acct? If so let us know your npub and connect. We're stronger together.
We do meetups every month in Mumbai, India ... I always post it on orangepill app and meetup.com
