You are invited to join us on 6 January 2016 for Bitcoin Wednesday’s annual New Year’s reception, including another program revolving around the important recurring theme of cryptocurrencies in Dutch society. As you’ve come to expect, networking will be at the heart of this event: run into your old, familiar Bitcoin Wednesday friends and colleagues and tell stories about the early days; meet the newcomers and share your ideas about the future. After a number of thought-provoking conference presentations, there will be ample opportunity for networking at the bar.

Mark your calendar for the first Wednesday of December so that we can raise a toast together to the increasing role of Bitcoin in Dutch society.

So that the digital currency revolution leaves no one behind, please bring colleagues, friends, family and neighbors with you.

Bitcoin Wednesday is an accessible event for anyone who has interest in digital currencies or the related technologies, a great chance to meet other like-minded professionals, and exchange ideas in an informal atmosphere.

Mark it down in your agenda; join us on Wednesday, 6 January. The conference itself begins at 19:00, but we gather at 18:00 at the bar for networking.
