Want to live together with a group of like-minded crypto enthusiasts?

Well now you can!

All you have to do is move to San Francisco, California and enter The Crypto Castle:

It's not technically a castle but you can't tell it's residents that. 

It's a 3 story house located in San Francisco where over half a dozen technology/blockchain enthusiants live, and plot the future of money.

(The front of their refrigerator)

The castle came to life less than two years ago.

The house was scooped up for rental in 2015 by 25 year old Jeremy Gardner when he discovered it just 30 minutes from Silicon Valley and located in an upscale neighborhood.

Crypto millionaires.

According to Gardner, roughly a half dozen people have become millionaires since living in the house and from investing in cryptocurrency, mostly via Bitcoin. 

Most of the residents are early 20 somethings eager to find their niche in the tech world. They sleep in bunk beds and often party together. 

It's much more like a frat house than a tech gathering. 

Looks like a lot of fun, and it sounds like they are making a lot of money in the process!

Stay informed my friends.

Sounds really cool like the guy in the jungle who does posts on crypto . Wish I was younger! Maybe in retirement...

A good example of teamwork. If each member of the castle becomes an expert on a small handful of altcoins, one can imagine that keeping track of promising investments becomes easier.

goood luck

your reply cracked me up because when I read it I was thinking the same thing. maybe we create one for folks in their retirement years.

Coin is Best

Hey jrcornel,
Thanks for sharing

Haha. That is awesome.

Cool story jrcornel, my son and I just read it together.
He's heading back to college as a computer science major tomorrow.
Maybe I should send him here.

Haha maybe you should. It would be interesting to see exactly how much innovating actually gets done there vs. how much partying gets done... :)

Kind of feel like if i showed up theyd be like who are you and where is the pizza i ordered

Haha they would probably say that to me as well... at some point I am going to have to shave this beard of mine. :)

bitcoin is king

Then you tell them to pay you in bitcoins, and they ask you if you want to come in for a drink.

A 'Bernie' sticker? These kids have no idea what cryptocurrency is about.

That fridge smells of collectivism. And a "VICE" sticker? Very distasteful.

Seem like a bunch of trust fund babies to me.

I want! I want! I am sure this house is full of very clever people!

I love things like this! It would be an amazing experience to live at the castle since I would learn so much about the crypto world and investment strategies. Maybe I should create a second Crypto-Castle chapter in Los Angeles? ;P

Good for them! Very cool!

Someone who makes enough capital should consider giving back by buying out an apartment building... Charge the residents in crypto which also could be mined/earned depending on the duration of their stay. Then host several events or workshops relating to cryptocurrencies starring guest speakers. Now that would be a crypto castle! Great post @jrcornel !

what an awesome idea. looks like fun. as @katythompson said, "I wish I was younger".

I would drop everything and move there now :D I'm actually planning a vacation to Cali for the end of this year . I would love to visit this crypto world , it's like a hotel , full of crypto minded individuals

Let us know if are able to stop by and fill us in on what it's like. I am not sure of it's exact address, but it can probably be found with some digging.

I will for sure , thank you for letting us know

Trump is going to knock on that door and tell you that party is over LoL

Bitcoin, if I read an article about bitcoin, in my mind is always born thinking like this "Can I earn income from Bitcoin?" But how, from where and when ???. Often I read an article about bitcoin but I do not know how to get it, even I myself once shared an article about bitcoin which I myself have not been able to adjust to the bitcoin. At a glance about bitcoin I know that bitcoin is a new payment system and money is completely digital and can be termed like cash in the internet world. And who knows who invented or created bitcoin itself, this is my inner question, and concentrate for a moment my thinking time and time again who is controlling this bitcoin ??? And how does the bitcoin work, whether from a computer or hp application? And is this bitcoin a lot of people use as payment of goods or services ?. I continue to explore the meaning of this bitcoin, somehow I continue to try to plunge into this bitcoin world. Your article adds my new insights on how I get the bitcoin and thank you.

you can learn all about bitcoin from youtube.

"..who is controlling this bitcoin?" this is the exactly the right question you are asking here. Bitcoin is decentralised by design and therefore there is no centralised entity controlling it. So in short: power to the people. There is a lot you can learn about bitcoin and the underlying blockchain technology and I advise you to do so. But please, do not ask questions in BOLD/italic :)

Mommy! I also want! LOL

This is cool... 😎

Crypto Castle. You guys should stop by the Vault. Exciting things happening. There are opportunities to include US investors in an ICO.

it may become an inspiration for other "crypto castles" in other places, amazing

Very cool idea!

That looks super fun! Being a woman and about a decade past these guys, I'm probably not going to be living there, but my son on the other hand, with the leg up he has with two crypto enthusiast parents, (and his big brain and socially gifted personality-yes, I'm bragging lol) now him I could see being in a place like this...well he's fourteen so not quite yet but...

Cool post!

I wish I could move in with them and share in their ideas :)

Good example of teamwork. They should be reviewing crypto here on steemit. Maybe they are and I don't know it??? Anybody?

Lol, thanks for sharing the story.

lol this is awesome!! Im trying to do the same sort of thing here (minus the house right now lol) but it seems not too many people up here in Canada are down with crypto, at least not in the people I know and meet

if i was 10 years younger I'd be in there myself ! great article.. upvoted & following

Keep the good work , nice post

That sounds pretty cool.. Also sounds like they can manipulate the hell out of cryptocurrencies, all that money, a bunch of people living under the same the roof and money on their mind lol.

Wow wow wow. Now you have me thinking. What about a community where everyone is off the grid and trading cryptos? Get 100 in-the-know peeps and take over a hamlet in Devonshire!

Sounds awesome. But CA is too socialistic for me :(
