Bitcoin Apes Cascais
Sovereign Spring
hosted by VNTR Cascais
April 23, 2026
Doors Open 14:45h
Come for the Freedom. Stay for the people.
This is an afternoon for anyone curious about Bitcoin, decentralized AI and living with more freedom.
Whether you're just starting out or deep down the rabbit hole. We bring together a mix of newcomers and experienced Bitcoiners for real conversations, honest questions, and the kind of connections you don't find at typical events.
We’ll have mixers, panels and presentations on Bitcoin, freedom, and sovereign AI. Breakouts where everyone gets to participate.
And dinner afterwards for those who want to keep the conversation going.
No hype. No shilling. Just high signal people talking about things that matter.
