Magic Capital Bitcoin
Colon, Michigan March 23, 2024
Hello everyone, just wanted to give you an update of how our meetup went.
Our second Bitcoin meetup took place on March 23, 2023, with an impressive turnout of around 20 attendees hailing from various locations including Detroit, Toledo, Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor, and Indiana.
A standout presentation was delivered by Blake Kaufman, a dedicated college student currently enrolled at MSU, who introduced his groundbreaking project: the Blitz Wallet.
This Bitcoin-exclusive wallet, designed by Blake, aims to simplify transactions without any associated fees.
Blake's hour-long presentation captivated the audience with its structure, clarity, and wealth of information. He also welcomed and addressed questions and suggestions from the attendees. Emphasizing the concept of "banking the unbanked," Blake highlighted the staggering statistic that one billion people worldwide remain unbanked in 2024, underscoring Bitcoin's potential to address this issue. Blake's ultimate goal is to make his wallet easily accessible to people worldwide, aligning with his vision of financial inclusivity.
One notable feature Blake is working on - that I found very, very impressive - is a gift wallet option. Which would allow users to instantly share a pre-loaded wallet simply by sending a text message—to anyone.
I can already see bitcoiners sending these to a taxi driver, server, a friend for a birthday, Christmas, etc.
How many times have we tried to have a friend or newbie download a wallet and we say, “Download a wallet and I’ll send ya 10 bucks in bitcoin”? Sometimes they do, and sometimes they just won’t. For whatever reason. But I think with a PRE-LOADED wallet it would be much, much easier.
I am very much looking forward to this.
Following the presentation, attendees enjoyed a meal at Five Star Pizza and continued discussions at
The Colon American Legion, fostering a sense of community among Bitcoin enthusiasts.
We eagerly anticipate hosting Bitcoiners in Colon on - at least -
a quarterly basis and we invite anyone interested to connect with us at Magic Capital Bitcoin, on Twitter (X), Orange Pill App, Telegram and soon, Nostr.
Hope to see you soon!
