Bitkiwi XV — Christchurch

Here comes Bitkiwi XV, and we're pumped!

This will be the third Bitkiwi event held in Christchurch, and the first two were a blast.

Last time we were there in 2024 we had Cody Ellingham of the Transformation of Value host a speaking panel comprised of some interesting kiwi bitcoiners (you can watch it here).

Christchurch always brings a decent crowd, there's been a decent Bitcoin presence down there for some time now, with a long-running meet-up and a lot of interesting Bitcoin enthusiasts in the area.

It will be great to visit again, and we're sure a bunch of new Bitcoiners will be along.

And we've got three awesome speakers presenting at the event!
