In Person Events are "Magnitudes Better" than Twitter Spaces!

Hackathons, Coffee Breaks, a Drink at the Pub!

The following is the second part of a conversation held with Jerry Qian, co-Founder at Bitcoin Bay, and Nick Price, co-Founder at DOT. For part one, see Jerry’s warnings for Bitcoin in 2024.

When considering options for business growth, it’s easy to forget the power of in-person events.

How Better to Welcome Crypto Newbies?

Jerry emphasizes the role of physical meetups in welcoming those new to the field:

"The goal is to really help connect a lot of the newcomers into the Bitcoin and blockchain space."

He believes these gatherings are key to integrating and educating newcomers. This is what growth is about right? Yes taking a slice of the pie, but making that pie bigger too.

Magnitudes Better than Twitter Spaces!

Jerry advocates for the unmatched benefits of in-person events, especially for leadership development:

"For leadership and ideation, in-person events have been exceedingly helpful. Magnitudes fold more than anything you could do with things like Twitter spaces."

He contrasts this with the limitations of connecting online.

Deeper Personal Connections

On the depth of connections made through face-to-face meetings, Jerry remarks:

"With these in-person interactions, you're able to find out a lot more about what drives and motivates the other person."

He suggests that such interactions foster a deeper understanding and stronger collaborations.

Hackathons, Coffee Breaks, a Drink at the Pub. They All Count!

Highlighting the outcomes of BitcoinBay's events, Jerry points out:

"We've seen a lot of good projects come out from the hackathons."

But really any interaction ‘in person’ can count. It doesn’t matter where you are, the proximity is key!

The Energizing Effect of Physical Events

Jerry describes the unique atmosphere at these events:

"The energy is just, you know, absolutely electrifying”

… and dare we say, fun, too? Yes, there, we said it. So, get out there! 😲
