Attendees were treated to both indoor and outdoor experiences, with many donning their sunglasses to enjoy the sun. A massive thank you goes out to our sponsors including Coincards, Iris Energy, coinos, Van City, Vancouver Bitcoiners, and mintgreen - among many others. Their unwavering support made this event a reality. The culinary delights were aplenty, with Old Country Pierogi serving up authentic Polish and Eastern European dishes. Sweet tooths weren’t left out, with Petit Bom Bon and Laughing Bean offering delectable desserts and baked goods. Not to be outdone, Honest to Pete kept the energy alive with their beloved coffee, embodying the essence of cherished moments. Fun, interactive booths like a lightning arcade machine added a unique touch, with talks of Bitcoin payments for Pierogi's, coffee, baked goods, and potentially even 'Sats for Shirts'. Attendees also had the chance to enrich their knowledge through workshops on topics like Self Custody with Leo, with more lined up for future editions. The atmosphere was electrified with music from DJs like STAR×DUST, Paulina Gemini, and Kris Jones. Bitcoin-inspired art adorned the venue, courtesy of artists like Bitcoin Apex and Cryptograffiti. For the bibliophiles, an onsite library featured enlightening reads such as "B is for Bitcoin" by Seb Bunney & Daz Bea and "Thank God for Bitcoin" by Jimmy Song. All in all, it was a day where Bitcoin wasn’t just a digital currency; it was a culture, a community, and a cause for celebration.
