Our company is built around the simple idea that moving money should be easy, affordable, transparent, and safe.

WOW! I sure do hope that Jared reaches out to Ben for, to me, it looks like a match made in heaven. Imagine what Bitcoin could do for Dwolla. It'll surely forward Ben's new company to the next level, coupled with Tradehill having its users use Dwolla as its main funding vehicle.

How about a brawl to the wall beatdown between the two of them, and whoever is the last one with teeth walks home with Dwolla and Tradehill as collateral?  ;D

"My lawyers inform me that calling you a 'walking pile of lying, scamming and abhorrent rat shit' would reflect poorly on our ongoing legal proceedings, so I won't say that. Enjoy the conference!"

This is great!  We want transparency and fairness.  And hot girls.

I say he will say bitcoin twice in his speech not counting the Q&A.

Right now, Dwolla has about a week to respond to TradeHill's serve notice according to state law.

Hopefully we can get our hands on it and Jered will update us on the forum, I will give him a call later and see if he will be willing to do it. (If its legal to od so of course)

he'll probably take the advice of his lawyer, and lawyers just about always advice not to speak about ongoing legal actions.

if anyone is attending though, it would be great if someone would question/press the dwolla guy about concerns about their chargeback policy, lack of notification about them, etc.

Jered and I are presenting at this event, so trust me, between both us Ben doesn't know what he's in for.

I'm close with the COO of Dwolla, and when I asked her to set up a meeting with me and Ben..he denied.

WELLL BENNY BOY...YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR MESSING WITH

yeah, in a diane sawyer nail him to the wall in a calm, professional, logical and reasonable kind of way.  i'd recommend not talking about tradehill at all, and just expressing concerns as a bitcoin centric business.  just my opinion.

bitcoin gave dwolla the surge for additional vc investment. Ben is basically snubbing the bitcoin community.

Jered should take the money he was going to spend attending the conference and pay back the people he owes.

Saying anything to him would jeapordize the legal case, or talking about in public with anybody there or here. Waiting for big payday and justice against Dwolla seizing your money or throw it all away being stupid. Hmm.
