Bitcoin Forum

I know there is a bitcoin conference taking place in NY in the coming week. I plan to attend and was wondering if anyone else around would like to catch up too.

Moderators: Not sure if the thread is  under correct category. If it isn't, please move.

Cheers!

Moving it to meetups for you. I'll be attending. I'm actually one of the speakers.

Great. What day and slot? I am sorry, this might be a noob question, but what is the topic of your discussion?

I am going too.  I am looking forward to it.  It is the last time I will be able to do anything before my surgery.
I have a press pass for http://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/ (http://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/) and will be interviewing a few people.
Which presentation are you doing I do not want to miss it?
I look forward to meeting you.

It will be great to meet you all in person.  I have not decided if I will be wearing an Iron Maiden t-shirt or not yet.  Yes I was asked by a couple vendors who I am meeting there.  My picture on CCN has made the rounds.  LOL

That's great. Who all are you interviewing?

I'm just going to the networking part which is free if you pre-register.

That I would love to share but I have not been told it is ok yet.
I will let you know when I know it is ok to share.
I do know it is ok to share one now.  It is Juan from 112bit.com (http://112bit.com).  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=454808.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=454808.0)
The others are a surprise.  I am excited to meet them all and ask questions one on one.

Very cool.
How long is your presentation?

I shall be attending too; have a press pass for BTC Geek and hopefully interview some people. Feel free to reach out if you're attending too, would be happy to meet the people involved in anything related to Bitcoin!

There are many more people going from here than I thought.
Hope to see you there too.

I am sure there are plenty of people here among the 4000 or so people who've registered for at least one thing!

Not yet.  I was not sure until a day or so ago that I was physically going to be able to handle going.  I am registering now for some things.  Others I have been told I will be allowed into as I want.
I am still registering for a few up front though.  I am nervous and excited both.

I have a big interview I am so excited about.  I am looking forward to it.  I am just praying to Odin my back handles this ok.  I was in a dam wheel chair again this time last week. 

What are you speaking on?

If anyone is going to the NY conference you have to all say hi to http://www.mediabistro.com/insidebitcoins/new-york/speakers.asp#bojansimic because this man started the https://bitcoinsecurityproject.org/ which I have contruibed to and believe is important part of bitcoin is security.

I am still deciding if I should go, I feel like I have to play the 2cool4skool card. Nothing is catching my eyes on the speaker stuff same old same old. Takes a lot to get me out the basement.

Thanks for the heads up.  I will attempt to meet him.   :)
You should leave the basement and go.  My crippled self is going.

Anyone here at this conference?
What's the main buzz going around?

I was there both days.
I was doing a lot of interviews.  It was generally positive and fun. 
People were great and it was nice to talk to others about bitcoin.

Was happy to be there!

It was great to meet you finally.
Great interview as well.
You and Dan impressed me so much.
I am writing up the interviews now they will start going live over the next few days. 
Great Time there.
