Truly impressive turnout last night!

This went along with the solid lineup of presentations commended by the many who were buzzing before & after over drinks and networking.

​Downturn in the market be damned. This is a massive movement on the rise...

🙏 BIG thanks to Frankie's for hosting (and serving).
🙏Thank you, PizzaDAO and Stand With Crypto, for organizing this occasion linking past & future AND connecting the world!
🙏Thanks so much to all who came out, demonstrating the strength of our community in the Twin Cities!

🎉 Friday we partied like it was 2010—or, rather, we celebrated the anniversary of May 22 of that year.

For this 16th Annual BTC Pizza Day, we teamed up once again with @Pizza_DAO & @standwithcrypto and gathered at our usual spot, @FrankiesPizza, appropriately.

[MN Blockchain Initiative @MNblockchain]

We had slices of life worldwide with us by way of PizzaDAO's many other parties all streaming live.

No presentations this night. Just a social for those honoring this space and the future this fintech revolution promises. Perhaps that's why we had more children this year:)

[MN Blockchain Initiative @MNblockchain]

Thrilled we could be a part!

[Stand With Crypto🛡️ @standwithcrypto]

70 events. 500+ parties worldwide. One historic day. 🍕

Our Chapter Presidents brought Bitcoin Pizza Day to life across the U.S. with @Pizza_DAO.

We're just getting started. Thank you to everyone who showed up. 🫡

[MN Blockchain Initiative @MNblockchain]

It's our 3rd annual partnership with PizzaDAO and @FrankiesPizza to honor this day in Bitcoin history, the anniversary of the legendary transaction of 10,000BTC for two pizzas on May 22, 2010.

RSVP with PizzaDAO HERE: https://t.co/rkJxvsl7TJ

And we'll see you tomorrow night!

[MN Blockchain Initiative @MNblockchain]

👀 Hmm, let's see here...

Table cloth, @Pizza_DAO table cards, flyers, stickers, keychain, and placards from sponsor @standwithcrypto

✅ Yep, we're all set!

Join us TOMORROW NIGHT for (Bitcoin) Pizza Party time: https://t.co/rkJxvsl7TJ

[Stand With Crypto🛡️ @standwithcrypto]

Every May 22nd, we celebrate the transaction that started it all.

Join @standwithcrypto x @Pizza_DAO at a Bitcoin Pizza Day party in your city this FRIDAY 🍕

[Stand With Crypto🛡️ @standwithcrypto]

At @CoinDesk's @consensus2026 Miami, @masonlynaugh shared numbers that should have every politician paying attention:

✅ Nearly 80% of crypto owners are almost certain to vote in the midterms
✅ 73% are tracking crypto policy
✅ 74% are more likely to back a candidate that supports clear crypto regulation

[MN Blockchain Initiative @MNblockchain]

✅ So, rather than our usual Eventbrite, RSVP HERE: https://t.co/rkJxvsl7TJ

And instead of a mic and serious discussion, we'll pick up a slice of pizza and socialize.

See you then!

[MN Blockchain Initiative @MNblockchain]

In the wake of our big event last week, we're gearing up for THIS FRIDAY, May 22, and the anniversary celebration, Bitcoin Pizza Day! 🍕

💠What can be done to stop the rampant fraud occurring in our state?
💠How long can the consequences of skyrocketing national debts be avoided?
💠What does a "country" even mean anymore?

These are tough matters most would prefer to ignore.

We have a better idea...

[MN Blockchain Initiative @MNblockchain]

Offer a solution. 💡

THIS WEDNESDAY: Four presentations featuring six experts in finance, law, tech, and the humanities will reveal how new technologies are reshaping the world and addressing the issues above.

💪 Members Unite!

Last night, Morgan Paradis and Andy Adams led the way at our spring Members' social with their reviews from two of the premiere gatherings in the industry: Bitcoin Vegas and EthCC.

Morgan highlighted the many topics and exhibits featured...

[MN Blockchain Initiative @MNblockchain]
