The following is a rough blueprint for starting a local "twentyone" community, or what we call a [fork](/fork). This has worked in multiple countries.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
It might help to watch the last [10 minutes of this video](https://youtu.be/iOWvL9-4k4A?t=982), which explains the blueprint in more detail.
|
||
We explicitely encourage you to learn from our experience and adopt the [concept](/concept).

## Team Up
|
||
|
||
{% include image.html name="handshake.svg" float="right" %}
|
||
|
||
Step zero is to **[find another bitcoiner](/secrets)**. It is way easier and way more fun. Don’t
|
||
try to do everything on your own, so let me repeat this once more: find another
|
||
bitcoiner and team up.
|
||
|
||
It should be someone you like, someone that speaks the same language. Once you
|
||
are two, you can get rolling.
|
||
|
||
## Create a Beacon
|
||
|
||
Step one: **[create a beacon in cyberspace](/beacon)**. Something that is easy to find and easy
|
||
to consume. Something that other bitcoiners can rally around. Something with low
|
||
noise and high signal.
|
||
|
||
{% include image.html name="beacon.svg" %}
|
||
A weekly or bi-weekly [podcast] is perfect in terms of scalability. It isn’t that
|
||
much work to produce, and it is something that can be easily found, easily
|
||
consumed, and scales almost indefinitely. Other formats, such as a newsletter,
|
||
probably work well too. But it’s hard to beat the in-person character of a
|
||
podcast. You are two now, so it should be easy to just shoot the shit or discuss
|
||
the news for an hour every week. Feel free to [fork the logo][logo] and the [name], in
|
||
case you want to stick with the twentyone theme.
|
||
|
||
## Provide a Space
|
||
|
||
{% include image.html name="space.svg" float="right" %}
|
||
|
||
With the beacon in place, **[provide a space](/space) so that other bitcoiners can join in**.
|
||
A public group chat works well. Telegram, Matrix, IRC, Discord—what tool you use
|
||
is probably not too important. What is important is to have a solid group of
|
||
people in place: bitcoin plebs that are in it for the revolution, not for the
|
||
money or to shill the next shitcoin project. Your own little community. Local
|
||
and localized, but globally connected.
|
||
|
||
Be welcoming but vigilant, and always remember that everyone is a scammer.
|
||
|
||
## Your Language. Your Culture
|
||
|
||
{% include image.html name="translation.svg" %}
|
||
|
||
There is no shortage of great educational content. Unfortunately, most of it is
|
||
in English. The importance of localized educational material can’t be
|
||
overstated.
|
||
|
||
**Start an effort to translate the best content** into your local
|
||
language. Remember to involve the community. You’d be surprised how many people
|
||
would love to get involved and help with translations.
|
||
|
||
Here is a [list of articles][translations] to get you started.
|
||
|
||
## Consistency, Consistency, Consistency
|
||
{% include image.html name="consistency.svg" float="right" %}
|
||
|
||
Consistency is key. Your beacon should provide a steady signal for yourself and
|
||
others. It will be hard at first, but if you and your friend have been in
|
||
bitcoin for a while it should be trivial to talk about current events and/or how
|
||
bitcoin works for an hour every week.
|
||
|
||
**Stick with it for at least [21 weeks](/secrets).** All you need is some patience and
|
||
consistency, and the rest will happen on its own.
