Bummer you couldn't make it! Fortunately we're working with meetup groups across the country to get more of them going.

We estimate around 600 people showed up. About 2.5M sats were given as rewards to the 400+ unique users who made at least 1 purchase that evening.

Prior to the block party, I went around and spoke with a variety of businesses in the area of Rainey Street we wanted to have the party. Within a couple of weeks we had verbal commitments from them to participate in the block party, accepting bitcoin, and offering bitcoin reward to their customers.

At this block party, the vendors were giving 50% satsback when you paid using bitcoin through the Oshi app. The vendors received the bitcoin, with most of them choosing to hold it.

We're looking to have another block party in Miami, Phoenix, Charlotte, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Huntsville, Kansas City, and more! Very excited about introducing bitcoin to communities in this way.
