What is the true measure of a successful Bitcoin community? 📈
I recently asked our Bitcoin Community Leaders group about the #1 KPI they use to measure success. You can check out the full breakdown in the image below, but the top priorities are incredibly clear:
🥇 27% focus on More active community members.
🥈 19% prioritize More merchants accepting Bitcoin.
🥉 16% track More people actually paying with Bitcoin.
The comments section was pure gold, generating fantastic grassroots tactics to actually improve these KPIs:
🔹 Turn FUD into FUN: Overcome business hesitation by organizing treasure hunts that bring groups of eager spenders directly to their doors.
🔹 Create Local Markets: Host regular Bitcoin Farmers Markets or flea markets to easily integrate local vendors and foster connections.
🔹 Spark Waiter FOMO: When dining out, have your group pay you in sats at the table, then pay the bill in fiat. Make the waiter feel like they are missing out on the action!
🔹 Apply Pressure: Call restaurants for large group bookings and cancel if they do not accept Bitcoin.
🔹 Leverage Frameworks: Utilize tools like my Bitcoin Community Flywheel framework and @Alekandar Svetski's IRL Community Ladder to systematically boost active membership.

Following up on my last poll about what activities add the most value to a community, I went back to my Community Leaders group with a new question: "What activities do you actually DO in your community?" The results are in, and it’s amazing to see how well our actions align with our priorities. Out of 38 community builders, here is what is actually happening on the ground:
🥇 97% are hosting Events IRL (meetups, workshops, lunches, dinners). It’s official—we practice what we preach! In-person connection isn't just valued; it's actively prioritized.
🥈 55% manage Chat Discussions (Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord) to keep the daily engagement flowing.
🥉 44% are creating Social Media Content (YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn). Interestingly, while this ranked lower in our "value" poll, it's clear that it remains an essential tool for community discovery and growth!
