yeah, it's pretty lame.
you should definitely make a trip out of that socialist hellhole and visit #madeira - the proportion of nostriches among the bitcoiners is very high. there is also a weekly event here, bitcoin walk, run by these nice polish people, a local guy often now is providing legit madeira style bbq for the after-walk gathering, as well as the monthly meetup at Andre Loja's coworking space. the dude is the main reason we got so many bitcoiners and nostriches migrating here, the SEC gang with all their silly ideas, and the bitcoin atlantis conference last year was all mostly down to his advocacy work.
