Seven. It wasn't as structured an event as last time. More informal and the conversation developed organically. I'm not sure if the feeling is mutual, but I feel like these guys are becoming friends. We are planning to carpool to different events a bit further away in the next few months. There's a lot going on. It's a good network. I'm not sure if that's only because New York City is so big. I wonder if people are seeing this elsewhere?
I should try to coordinate something in my area. I could of course find a meet up in Toronto but that's 2 hours away and there is one for cottage country but they meet about 1.5 hours away from me.
I think I could round up a few people. The guys at walmart I give bitcoin tips to. My neighbour who I am working on orange pilling. Even if we only have a few to start.

It really doesn't take many people. 7 seemed like a good number to me. Any more and then everyone isn't included in the conversation.

It’s good that you’re making new friends! Serves as a balance to your existing ones whom you’re kinda trying to orange pill / dissuade from making bad choices when given the chance

Very true. It's a big contrast. There was a depressing nostr note a week or so ago about a guy who was giving up his friends because he couldn't relate to non bitcoiners/nostriches any more. He didn't enjoy spending time with normies. I'm glad I'm nowhere near that point.

7 is a good number. The meetups in Los Angeles are too big. Like a mini convention. Everyone is trying to sell their company or trying to get hired.
