while this conference will certainly be cool and offer some great talks, we shouldn't forget that this is an insider event.

From Bitcoin people for other Bitcoin folks. Don't expect much effect on the outside world and especially on the banking industry.
Those who noticed Bitcoin already might have a look, but the rest won't care.
And it's good this way.
