GX Conference - Pay 360 – Virtual Currency and Bitcoin London, 2014 [videos]

I was there to document the two bitcoin sessions. The first was a keynote speech Virtual Currency and Bitcoin, by Nikolay Gertchev, an economic analyst for the European Commission. The second was a panel discussion debating the impact (Virtual Currency and Bitcoin). The panel got a bit emotional at times and, a 45 minute session, turned into a 55 minute session, but felt like hardly enough time.

thx, watching it.

My pleasure.
I think that the EU commission economist (Nikolay), while not 100% informed/aware, is still a great step up in the kind of people that are willing to address bitcoin publicly. I spoke to him off camera for a while. This all happens the day after Gox shuts down. He personally thought fractional reserve was the reason.
