Come and join us for the Palmerston North cryptocurrency community meetup, hosted in collaboration with Cryptocurrency NZ. Cryptocurrencies have become a common conversation topic over the past few years so if you're interested in this new technology and the disruption it's been causing across almost every industry, come join us on the last Wednesday of each month! This is an informal meetup where like-minded people come together to chat about the latest news, ideas, tech and developments in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space. Whether you're an investor, holder, trader, developer, miner, hacktivist or just getting started, anyone interested in the future of money is welcome - no prior knowledge is required! We look forward to seeing you there for a bite to eat and a couple of drinks! PS. Join the official Cryptocurrency NZ Discord to stay in the loop with future events.
