I've always thought Stroud would be prime for a local, circular bitcoin community. It's a little bit out there, different and independent, but then I spoke to a few people and they had already been green washed by the guardian, etc. And bitcoin is boiling oceans. But, yes, do agree. Wanting free markets and also caring about and investing / donating to your local community aren't mutually exclusive. I think small, independent and local is defo the best way forward and trying to live that ethos.

Totally agree! Stroud has such a unique vibe, and building a local bitcoin community could really boost that! It’s awesome to see folks caring about their community while embracing free markets. Let’s do it! 🌟
Totally. My next plan is to try and get the long table to accept bitcoin payments. The guy who started it has started buying bitcoin personally so it’s only a small step to get them to accept as a payment. The green agenda might be a barrier but there is so much good info out on the green benefits of bitcoin that I think I can sway them. One merchant at a time.
