Luke and Brooke | Bitcoin Treasure Hunt is Coming to Ohio 9.23 & 9.24 | The Bitcoin Nova #112

Luke and Brooke join me on The Bitcoin Nova to share how their Bitcoin Treasure Hunt gets people out into their communities, visiting local businesses, playing games, and using Bitcoin as money.

Through hands-on experiences, they help participants understand inflation, purchasing power, ownership, and the freedom to use their own money. What starts as a fun adventure becomes a way to build confidence, support local businesses, and connect people.

We talk about how they’ve brought more than 25 businesses into their local Bitcoin economy, why learning by doing can make things click, and how other communities can take their open-source blueprint and start treasure hunts of their own. We also connect this with my work at Conduit and our shared goal of helping people participate in everyday Bitcoin commerce.

📍 BITCOIN TREASURE HUNT IN COLUMBUS, OHIO

Luke and Brooke are bringing the treasure hunts to the Midwest Bitcoin Summit! One hunt will be inside the summit, with two more around Columbus during the summit. Explore, connect, and experience Bitcoin in action!

Participate and learn how a treasure hunt is organized and run, and take that experience back to their own hometowns to host their own!

It’s a fun way to introduce people to Bitcoin, support local businesses, and build community.
