About Simon James
Here’s why…
Passion and Purpose
I'm dedicated to building the physical Bitcoin network in the UK. Since founding Bitcoin Events UK in April 2022, I've focused on expanding the Bitcoin community. Partnering with James and Chris, we launched Bridge2Bitcoin to increase the number of businesses accepting Bitcoin across the UK.
Synergistic Projects
Our two initiatives complement each other perfectly: we’re building a vibrant community of Bitcoin enthusiasts and expanding their opportunities to spend Bitcoin.
Remarkable Growth
We’re at the forefront of Bitcoin adoption in the UK. Since April 2022, meetups have grown from 10 to 57, and the number of businesses accepting Bitcoin has skyrocketed from around 30 to 400—a 1233% increase.
