We just need one guy to represent us as a community.

I guess one should expect that from a hacker conference. Or is this just a 'dangerous' sounding headline on an otherwise bitcoin-positive talk?

Ooh sounds interesting, You can watch it free via streaming http://www.blackhat.com/html/bh-us-11/bh-us-11-uplink.html Unless your going ;D PS. I don't think its a vulnerability about the network, just using bots to perform automated trading so you make money while not on the PC. Reminds me a few years ago about the guy that made over million dollars installing malware that infected peoples machines with ref feral links so when the victims went to amazon the hacker always got a cut.

Any other bitcoiners gonna meet me there? Perhaps we can arrange a very special edition of the Las Vegas bitcoin meetup group with special guest attendees!
