Topic: Los Angeles (SoCal) Bitcoiners Meetup? - page 5. (Read 6805 times)
We had a VERY successful MeetUp a couple of weeks ago in downtown LA. I'd say close to 50 people were there. Many (not me) also attended the Satoshi Square the following week, and apparently there were about 30 people. I think at least half the people who came to the meetup are on BitcoinTalk, some who attended are legends here. People came from all over, some from pretty far away. And I was surprised that many people there attended Bitcoin 2013.
On the MeetUp site there are 2-3 Bitcoin LA groups last I looked (I joined every one I saw). You may have checked out the less active group. And even the bigger group may not look as active as it is, because most posts have been on the event pages (past and future), rather than the general pages.
Here's the MeetUp page for our next event: http://www.meetup.com/Los-Angeles-Bitcoin/events/123784402
I think we will be more effective as one large local group, rather than splintered smaller local groups.

I heard about it through reddit here:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1fp68b/satoshi_square_la_the_first_openair_bitcoin/
but the site that it's linked to http://spelunk.in/ organized the events. I didn't see any advertisements for the event on this forum, but I'm sure there were BTCtalk members there.

That's great. Anyone from Bitcointalk there? or was it outside the means of people from this forum?

Have you seen any local events for Bitcoiners yet in the LA area?
I did see a meetup.com listing, but it didn't seem very active.

We will be arranging a date and time soon.
