To those that have been to the Bitcoin Conference. What has been your experience?

What the biggest benefit you have received?

What were the pros and cons?

Did you network with anyone that led to employment, business deals, friends ?

Will be going to Bitcoin Conference 23 and I am excited. I look forward to your stories.

So i have a former friend who got paid in bitcoin once, but he wasn’t very tech savy, or cared to learn about how to use bitcoin. He then asked me to receive the payment for him. Later that year we had a falling out and when I tried to give him his bitcoin back he ignored it. I tried to help him get a mobile wallet, a hardware wallet, or even an exchange account. He didn’t bother to do it. He rather argue and disrespect me than getting his bitcoin.

I later spoke to him a couple of months after that to get something back from him that was mine. He sent it back with no problem, but he did not ask about his bitcoin.

After that word got back to me that he made fun of me, dragged my name to everyone we knew, called my wife a slut, and talked shit about my mother. We’ve never crossed paths again or spoken for about 2 years now.  

Does this mean the bitcoin is mine to keep now? They never asked me about it and I can only assume they are letting me keep it.
