Gardens by the Bay in the evening
It’s fun to think there was a time when the price of gold was flat. In Britain, the price was set by law to £4.25per troy ounce between 1821 and 1914.

This is the first occurrence of this #BitcoinWalk, with the intent to hold it roughly once a month.
When you look at btcmap.org, it seems very empty for Singapore… And yet!
I attended a Bitcoin run last night.
25min run around Fort Canning in the evening heat, followed by a food court meal and a good chat.
Organised by @mrdgw
@mrdgw started this meetup 6 months ago with education in mind and it takes place consistently every week. Anyone wanting to learn more about Bitcoin is welcome to join.
