<p>Reed and Rev Hodl interview GC and James from the Jersey City Bitcoin Meetup, exploring how the group evolved from casual bar gatherings to structured Socratic seminars. In our in-depth conversation, we delved into meetup security, OPSEC best practices, strategies for defending against scammers, and why meetups represent the ultimate web of trust - especially as we head into a future where trust will come at a premium. Other topics included decentralized leadership, finding affordable venues, and fostering economic collaborations among attendees.</p>
