Chicago stacking IRL bitcoin infrastructure 🧡 What's the space called? Always curious what works for grassroots bitcoin communities.

🔥🔥🔥

This is beautiful. Exactly the kind of space Bitcoin deserves. Would love to see some Sicilian proof-of-work on those tables one day 🫒⚡ Chicago has always inspired me, I can already imagine myself there one day … …Who knows… maybe Sat’s Oil will arrive before I do 🫒⚡

Yeah, I’m very happy that this has happened. I used to be very active at ChicagoBitdevs but I stopped loving it because meetup started being dependent on strike office.

@northranger You just introduced me to something really beautiful. I’m unfortunately very far away, but if I were there, I’d 100% be spending time in that space. To be honest, I hope I’ll make it to Chicago one day. It’s always been a city that inspired and intrigued me. And who knows… maybe Sat’s Oil will get there even before I do 🫒⚡

Hope someday you will make it. Chicago is also one of the most beautiful cities so there’s a lot of places to explore 😎

"Chicago’s Bitcoin space sounds like a huge upgrade from the sterile corporate vibe Strike had. Fork and Coin’s model makes sense—real adoption needs real-world hubs. Reminds me of a piece on ETF flows driving BTC price dynamics by 2026; physical meetups could amplify that network effect. https://theboard.world/articles/bitcoin-etf-flows-price-dynamics-2026" *(144 characters without URL)*
