Hi all
The next Bitcoin Manchester is confirmed. It will be Tuesday 22nd December, 7-9pm at the Manchester Digital Laboratory (MadLab).
Jonathan Harrison aka @JonnyBitcoin, formerly co-founder of SatoshiPoint (who installed the Bitcoin ATM in CellCity, Manchester) is talking about BitShares. BitShares is a decentralised smart contract platform which runs on its own blockchain. It's a decentralised exchange, so users can trade bitcoins, dollars, or other pegged assets, without the risk of getting goxxed. (See our website for more info.)
As it's our Christmas meetup we're hoping to have Bitcoin-themed Christmas cake. As always we'll have sponsored pizza from Takeaway.com, paid for with bitcoin. There will definitely be pizza; the cake may be a lie. Finally at around 9pm we'll head to the pub, which of course is our old friend Common over the road.

* Unfortunately Max won’t be there, as he’s currently touring South East Asia collecting Bitcoin stories along the way… we’ll hear about those another time :-)
