I'm really excited about this project! I’m looking forward to make things setup ASAP
Thanks to Jake for this awesome place! This will allows a LOT of oppotunities.
Next weekend I can’t make it though, I will be at Rimouski. Otherwise I’m available every evening.

we should have another meetup, ASAP ( next weekend? )
maybe we can start by clearing up the space on the street level? or many make the second floor more inviting? how do we get other people involved in this exciting project?
GO GO GO! time is now! lets do this thing!

It was really good to meet you all, Derek absolutely included!
I look forward to the next meet-up in our building.

I will open up a new thread in project development sub forum, so we can discuss different ideas for what to do with this unbelievably cool space.

Your kid was cool, especially the fight with the dog
Montrealers should know that the space available is absolutely awesome and has some crazy potential. Many thanks to Jake Hobson, we'll be sure to make Montréal the Bitcoin capital. If you're living in the Québec province, we need you
By the way, we need to do a "what to do with that space" meet-up.
as was said, the best way to store bitcoin is on paper.
please make sure you secure your bitcoins saving this way
https://www.bitaddress.org/ <- BTC paper wallet generator
http://liteaddress.org/ <- LTC paper wallet generator
please use the following steps
go to the website click "save page as" in your browser's file menu
save the html page to a usb device
remove the internet wire to your computer
re-boot your computer with a live linux CD
plug in your usb and load the html page you saved
generate your paper wallet and print it out
then send the bitcons or litecoins to the paper wallets
DONE!
this is the paranoid way to create secure paper wallets.
I recommend booting with a live linux CD because this way their is 0 chance some malware or keylogger could see & steal the paper wallets you generate
if you don't know how to burn a Live Linux ISO on a CD and then boot from that...
unplug your internet, generate your paper wallets, print, and then reboot b4 for connecting to the net again. ( this is probably sufficient )
there are many options to securing your coins, this is the way i do it...
barin wallet is another very secure way. ( if done properly, with a strong password )
also see http://www.piperwallet.com/ for a supper easy way to create paper wallets.

Reminder
This afternoon, as of 2:00pm, the door will be open for Bitcoiners at
3485 blv St-Laurent, 2nd Floor.
There will be space (perhaps still somewhat messy), wifi, drinks, food, and all the street-sale activities.
Come if you are a Bitcoiner, come if you are currious about Bitcoins!
Some of the points on a fluid agenda:
meet & greet
State of Bitcoins in Quebec and Canada
What to do with our Building.
can't wait to see the new meetup space tomorrow
I will also be there around 2:00 pm
Saturday is the street-sale on St-Laurent, so if you're coming by car, plan to park on the adjacent streets. There will be a lot of street activity around for those that want to linger later on.
The address is 3485 blv St-Laurent (corner of Milton and St-Laurent). Let's meet on the second floor.
I'll plan for food and drinks.
Welcome all and bring anyone interested in Bitcoins!
Maybe I can be there, not sure yet.

I'll be there from 2:00pm onwards.

A Bitcoin Building in Montreal?
FREE
• Always accessible
• Great venue for Meet-ups
• Information space on bitcoins for public information
• Possible programming stations / hackspace
• Ideas welcome
I would very much like the input of the local Bitcoin community on how to best organize the various spaces.
The building I have in mind is located on St-Laurent, close to Sherbrook. Everything is almost ready to go and remains to be done... I just need you!
PM me for more information or for a first organized visit of the premisses!
That's awesome!
Sounds very interesting. Maybe we should meet there and see how we can organise something.
That's the idea
Let me know when you can pass by. Anytime really.
