This conference is a huge success. I can't count how many VC company execs and decision makers at various payment companies I spoke with today. I set up more blockchain.info mobile wallets than I can count, and gave each person 0.01 BTC to get them started seeing how easy it was to use. Everyone was super interested and were brainstorming ideas on how they can use Bitcoin in their current business model. I am sure lots of new products will come into existence thanks to this conference.  Very awesome! Keep up the good work! |

Erik made sure we got placed next to Paypal  Epic! Great move. Best of luck educating VCs about Bitcoin. BTW, I do kinda like the unpretentious logo compared to the huge paypal one. Maybe a big rotating Ƀ at the top will catch eyes next time even if it isn't *your* logo. |

Seriously, I don't know if I'll ever go bearish on Bitcoin again after hearing the description on how the conference went.

As much as all of us here understand the clever ideas behind Bitcoin, and as much most of us have vested interest and biases, we should try to see things from outsider's perspective. Presently Bitcoin is an obscure, niche experiment in p2p networking and economics. Smart people from PayPal and and similar corporations, even from governments, will appreciate and embrace the underlying innovations only if we help them to. Bitcoiners bashing on big guys at this moment seems pathetic and laughable, and in case is not productive.
whatever paypal can die in a fire |
This is not some pseudoeconomic post-modern Libertarian cult, it's an un-led, crowd-sourced mega startup organized around mutual self-interest where problems, whether of the theoretical or purely practical variety, are treated as temporary and, ultimately, solvable.
Censorship of e-gold was easy. Censorship of Bitcoin will be… entertaining.
