In this episode of The Gage, we had the pleasure of hosting Nat Cole and Nick Duddy from Coinscrum, one of the oldest continually operating Bitcoin communities in the world. We delved into the origin story of Coinscrum, which began in a pub in Paddington in 2012 as a casual gathering for individuals intrigued by Bitcoin. Over time, Coinscrum evolved into a hub where key figures in the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency space congregated, leading to significant developments such as the birth of Ethereum through network connections.
The conversation with Nat and Nick highlighted the evolution of the Bitcoin community over the years, emphasising the core focus on builders and the gradual reemergence of artists alongside institutional players. The importance of education within the community was underscored, with a commitment to conveying the fundamental aspects of Bitcoin before delving into other topics.
Overall, the episode provided a deep dive into the history, values, and future direction of Coinscrum, showcasing the community's commitment to education, diversity, and the foundational principles of Bitcoin. It was a fascinating exploration of one of the pioneering Bitcoin communities and the ongoing evolution of the cryptocurrency space.
