About PlebLab
PlebLab is a community accelerator and hackerspace for Bitcoin builders started in 2021 by a group of founders.
We help builders become founders through Startup School, Startup Day, Bitcoin Builders Club, Open Hackerspace Day, founder support, media, community, and the everyday work of getting serious people in the room with the right people.
PlebLab has always been more than a physical space. It is a builder network, a proving ground, and an institution where people learn values that carry on long after they leave the room: proof of work, personal responsibility, open collaboration, resilience, and the courage to ship.
Expect founder updates, builder stories, event recaps, podcasts, Startup School notes, Startup Day news, Bitcoin Builders Club releases, community updates, and the signals we think matter across the Bitcoin startup ecosystem.
PlebLab will always be builder first. Much of what we do stays open and accessible because that is the point. We want more people building, shipping, learning, and finding their way into the ecosystem.
Paid support here is our “buy us a beer” model. It helps cover the real costs of keeping a hackerspace alive: rent, equipment, food, water, production, events, operations, and the time it takes to keep showing up for builders.
