Happy New Year stackers!
We’re kicking off 2026 by launching our very own BTC++ territory on SN.
For those who don’t know, BTC++ is a global event series showcasing the cutting edge of Bitcoin development.
We have a record 8 events lined up for 2026 (some of them have already been announced here), and we’re excited to now have a forum for discussing the frontier of Bitcoin development before, during, and after our events.
Feel free to use this platform to share interesting ideas, technical questions, or other Bitcoin-related topics!
I've only been to one BTC++ event, but it was a great experience (even for a non-dev). Currently trying to figure out how to get myself to Vienna in May...
If you've never checked out the plusplus website, you should have a look. the conference themes for this year look pretty good.
Vienna is a relatively accessible place.
If I get there, what's your no 1 Austria tip?
Good question!
#1a: they have a respectable local bitcoin org that organizes events: https://bitcoin-austria.at/en/ - hopefully they'll host a side-event! Keep an eye on that.
#1b: Note that the conference is outside the city center. Take extra days and explore Vienna. It's as culturally exciting as it gets. If you can take more than a few extra days, consider visiting Bratislava too. It's about an hour drive, and extremely nice in early summer.

Sounds like a promising year -- I'll be looking forward to witnessing more discussions on bitcoin development on SN!
Welcome to the wild west!
Hope we'll get BTC++ going on Roatan one day! 🤗
So what is BTC++, and how does it differ from regular conferences? More strict about bitcoin only?
Awesome!
Yay!!! Long time fan first time supporter!!! welcome to SN
This is very exciting! Welcome. I have to check out the events you have already scheduled.
