The BitMiami telegram channel was established in 2021 to connect the community for networking and collaborating. Most community members are based out of Miami and some are international. Members of the community vary in level of experience with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Some members are new and in the channel to learn, others have been in the space as professionals for years and share their insights and expertise with the community. Services include teaching small business owners about #Bitcoin (why it matters and how they can get started) as well as technical education on the different protocols that exist in the #BitcoinEcosystem
