Michigan Bitcoin meetups often have a transaction time at the end where people buy and sell all sorts of stuff. Bitcoin meetups are how the circular economy is getting built here in Michigan.

Selling on the meetup is different vibes! I have witnessed the old man was going across bitcoin market asking the questions about bitcoin and then buying a book with sats for the kids! To onboard newcomers we have to have bitcoin market dedicate place with experienced Bitcoiners who can walk through people and show them how to buy and sell stuff with bitcoin.

The farmers market are good to orange pill them but usually they are busy and don’t have too much time to listen to you about bitcoin and why they should accept it vs just having a line of people behind me who wants to buy stuff for fiat lol So, dedicated market could fix that as well !

Before we had the baby we were toying with the idea of setting up a booth at our farmers market and recording the podcast live. Answering questions in real time and selling our merch for Bitcoin and or selling Bitcoin.

But alas we have a 3 month old so that idea got put on the back burner, but one day. We're still so early

Last year me and Julian was going to the farmers market to orange pill people and had a lot who were stopping by and asking! This year I offered to put an actual bitcoin tent over there for more visibility and contacted the farmers market managers to get approval but I was ignored 🥶 We still gonna try to make it happen!

Yes this is exactly what I want to do.

With a Flirting With Bitcoin tent of course 😉

I see, more about orange pilling. Like a Bitcoin meetup in a farmers market so people can see and ask questions.

Now we are onto something! I love this idea.

Get a bunch of bitcoiners together at the weekly farmers market to orange pill the vendors. Has to be easier to get vendors to accept bitcoin if they have 10 customers lined up waiting to send them sats

Or even get some funds pooled together and rent out a booth with some bitcoin stuff. Could also try to partner with a bitcoin-only exchange and have them sponsor a booth
