In honour of the Spring Equinox, please join us at The Lab coffee shop as we resume the weekly "Coffee and Crypto" meetup this Wednesday 22nd, 9 to 10:30am.

Meet and chat with fellow crypto enthusiasts, crypto newbies, and crypto wannabes. No previous experience with cryptocurrency is required.

If this is your first experience with cryptos, I recommend that you start with Monero (XMR).

Monero is perfect digital money. It is impervious to government censorship, control, interference, manipulation, surveillance, or tracking.

Monero is what Bitcoin (BTC) wanted to be but isn't: fast, fungible, inexpensive-to-use, private, uncensorable, untraceable electronic cash.

Monero is as secure and strong as Bitcoin, but it is cheaper to buy, cheaper to use, and faster to send and receive than Bitcoin, plus it is completely private. Bitcoin is a surveillance coin.

Monero is fungible. One unit is identical to another. 1 XMR = 1 XMR. Bitcoin is not fungible. Innocently receiving "tainted" BTC is a real possibility and can cause problems.

Learn about the 'Three S' use-cases of Monero: Save, Send, Spend; and how to participate in the Monero circular economy.

Monero is a lifeboat in these uncertain times. The legacy financial system is headed for an unprecedented global collapse. The dominoes are already starting to fall.

Monero is insurance against the global financial catastrophe. Preserve at least some of your wealth in Monero.

Bring your smartphone or tablet; learn how to set up a secure Monero crypto wallet; and get your first Monero free if you don't have any yet.
