Bitcoin City Arnhem

It all started in 2013 with three friends having beers and musing how cool it would be if they could pay for their drinks with Bitcoin, and that was the moment Bitcoin City Arnhem was born. In this episode we talk with Patrick van der Meijde, one of the initiators about the beginnings, the challenges and success of turning a town in Netherlands into a Bitcoiner's paradise, with international grocery stores and world-renown Burger houses all jumping on and accepting Bitcoin payments way before Tadge Dryja and Joseph Poon described the Lightning Network. Check out this nice clip about the Bitcoin City, too, and the payment processor Bitkassa, that the 3 friends built.
