This month we focused on Bitcoin Mining + Community.
⚡Nick kicked us off with an intro to pleb mining. He showed us how to set up a bitcoin miner (Antminer s9) using SlushPool and Braiins OS open-source mining firmware from start to finish!
Donate to open source developers for a chance to win the bitcoin miner!
We raffled off the Bitcoin s9 miner, compliments of Kaboomracks, during the evening as well. Raffle tickets were paid for with bitcoin!
10,000 satoshis (~$3) for 1 ticket.
35,000 satoshis (~$10) for 5 tickets.
All raffle proceeds were immediately donated to OpenSats, a 501(c)(3) public charity which aims to fund Bitcoin-related free and open source projects and associated education and research initiatives.
⚡⛏️ Next up, we had a Bitcoin Mining + Community Panel with both plebs and experts in the field.
