WELCOME TO BITCOIN MIAMI

Right now is a critical moment for bitcoin.

The world’s most independent currency has

just turned five and is entering a crucial

phase in its development.

In the last six months the currency has

dramatically increased in visibility and

experienced both the good and bad sides of

the limelight: rising acceptance with vendors

and shoppers, alongside more regulatory

scrutiny, and wild fluctuations in value.

It’s at this time, more than ever before, that

the bitcoin community is needed to ensure

a prosperous and well-balanced future for

the currency. The NABC has been created to

draw this community together, now

ranging from enthusiasts to financial

institutions, and to provide an open and

hard-hitting forum for moving the currency

forward.
