Virtual Currencies Compliance Conference (VC3) hosted by NMTA in New York City

[lightcoin]

The event will be held this Wednesday, August 14 2013 at the New York City Bar Association.

From the press release:

The entrepreneurs and investors who have been betting on Bitcoin and other virtual currencies are encouraged to attend, so they may know the regulatory environment they have entered. FinCEN's March 18th Guidance and the California C&Ds have made it clear that government has the virtual currencies squarely on its radar. Will this brave new set of technologies boom, or bust? The answer largely hinges on how well the industry adapts to its regulators.

Virtual Currency entrepreneurs can best get acquainted with their new legal responsibilities by attending this one day crash course and workshop. They will understand more about their federal obligations under the Bank Secrecy and Patriot Acts. They will meet and chat with the experts. Throughout the day's interactive sessions, they will have a chance to ask their questions. They will also learn all about state money transmitter licenses and have a chance to get better acquainted with their state regulators.

Rarely has there been an opportunity for such concentrated compliance learning. For those companies and their regulators, who are already on a steep learning curve about each other's domains, the landscape will become much clearer by day's end.

The day will finish with a cocktail mixer from 5:15 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

From 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., VC3 attendees who are interested may attend an informal industry discussion of lobbying and self-regulatory strategies, Chaired by Ms Constance Choi of Payward, Inc. and leader of the recently-launched self-regulatory effort, the Digital Asset Transfer Authority (DATA) that has garnered broad support from a large number of important industry players.

Early Bird pricing has been extended to August 11. Call David (917) 921-9529 to see if you qualify for affiliate group discounts.

Videos of presentations? Doubt it, but here's for hoping.

Unfortunately, there was a "no recording" rule in place so that it could be more of a round table.  I think that ultimately that rule achieved its goal.  It was a relatively intimate setting (for a conference) where people felt free to voice their personal experiences and concerns.

The presentations were not allowed to be recorded, however David did allow for us to record the industry panel.

Figured as much, makes total sense.

Awesome, thanks. More than I hoped for.

There are 6 people on that panel. One of them call himself Ryan Santos (I think), I don't see him on the list. Who is he?
