Two announcements this week.
The Meetup Breakdown is no longer a one-man operation. Iām delighted to welcome Ollie (the founder of Battersea Bitcoiners) and Gemma(organiser of the Northants Bitcoin Network) to the team. Theyāll be helping behind the scenes each week to make every issue better, and more useful for Bitcoiners across the UK and Ireland.
The first improvements are already underway, including announcement number two: weāve secured a new sponsor. A big thank you to BTCBitByBit for supporting the newsletter. If you havenāt come across them before, please take a moment to click their link and check them out below.
Now, letās get into this weekās breakdownā¦
