Current Developments
Following a discussion on reddit regarding the acquisition of Bitx by Switchless, it was decided to schedule a meetup for anybody interested in discussing what they are currently working on in Bitcoin land as well as provide an opportunity to talk about the best way to approach legislators and the SA Reserve Bank to ensure Bitcoin is adopted in a transparent and responsible manner by our country. Also check out the Bitcoin Cape Town meetups on the 28th of November.
Please consider donating some BTC towards this meetup. All Bitcoins received will be converted directly into beer: 1NbVeKEByNDocze7Nf99B3G38rhuU8r4Ph (BTC Beer Fund)
