Bitcoin has skyrocketed in price (up more than 6000 percent), popularity and controversy in the past year. Join us for the first-ever Bitcoin meetup at SXSW, where BitAngels (www.bitangels.co) co-founder Michael Terpin will be joined by other leading Bitcoin enthusiasts, startups, investors, techies, and fanboys to network and talk about all things Bitcoin. This is also a great opportunity to connect the existing Bitcoin community within the SxSW community. No Bitcoin experience required to attend. This is the event that will rock your world!

Topics will include: Bitcoin investing, Bitcoin mining, Litecoin and other new “altcoins” in the cryptocurrency world, Bitcoin regulation and taxation, how to launch your cryptocurrency startup, Bitcoin ATMs, Bitcoin wallets and security, and much more!

BitAngels is the first angel group connecting Bitcoin investors and cryptocurrency startups. It was founded in May, 2013, and is based in Austin and Las Vegas, with 300+ investors.
