#### About
|
|
|
|
The Capital Region Bitcoin Network was started by <a href="https://twitter.com/bitcoinkendal"
|
|
target="_BLANK" >Kendal Pappas</a> as a result of the lack of crypto communities in New York
|
|
and wanting to create a local community around Bitcoin.
|
|
|
|
The first meetup was held on Thursday, May 11th 2023. Meetups allow for open discussion
|
|
about Bitcoin news and common questions surrounding the currency.
