At TEDx Copenhagen, Lasse Birk Olesen talked about three technologies that will make him freer and more prosperous: 1. Seasteading, 2. BitCoin, 3. 3D Printing.

Not actually a transcript, but an article by Lasse on similar themes (in Danish):

Not really a transcript. I wrote that article earlier this year, and the talk was an independent take on the same theme. I realise this minor error is also apparent on the Seasteading Institute website.

Possibly the first mention of Bitcoin at any TED-related event?
Well, there was at least one TEDx talk by nefario: http://www.tedxleeds.com/nefario-james-mccarthy/

Still, Bitcoin in combination with seasteading sounds like an interesting talk. Looking forward to the video!

Ah, thanks, I updated the original post to reflect your clarification.

Nice, I stand corrected, thanks!

Great stuff! On the same topic, but a more humorous vein, people should watch the multipart TV series with Danny Wallace:
