How ironic would the meetup be given the Federal Reserve is still in place and this is where the inception of the Federal Reserve started.

Edit: Change the location to JEKYLL ISLAND!

Excellente! I was just lamenting how there's no big bitcoin shindig in nyc this year, when I literally fumbled into this thread on my smartphone.

We'll need to create a new bitcoin drink or shot.

Just noticed this, I already RSVPed. Cant wait to talk to some like minded people! Tagging along with me is an ex- hedge fund manager. He still speculates in commodities and ForEX. I'm a business admin/econ student as well, should be a lot of fun. I'll bring a nice bottle of scotch for us
