Private jets, helicopters... ARE YOU NOT INTO TRAINS?
Literally too pedestrian. How are we going to keep the riff-raff out if we throw the party somewhere accessible via train ?!?? Hate to break the news to you, but there are no street-legal automobiles which can go as fast as modern, non-US, trains. Speed-wise, even helicopters are having hard time catching up modern passenger trains. For a reason unknown, US is *the* only modern 1st world country which keeps it's train network in a laughable state.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Otherwise we’ll end up with no coiners & ‘low coiners’ I don’t want to share my Cristal & lobster with peasants.

Naw dude, just sign the invitation from a funded-enough address, to have the address/location/country/planet/galaxy revealed. No need for bankers or people to HODL admission funds :-) We have the technology. just don't bring a phone with funds to this future meetup, witness recent SIM-jacking of crypto conferences attendees (lost $5 mil).

I am dubious when it comes to loudmouths screaming peasants while drinking overpriced mediocre quality champagne... Anyone who has not inherited their fortune knows what the good shit really is.

Only 5-10 coins? I thought that was riffraff. 100 coins minimum. Edit: On second thought, no one with any real amount of coins would keep more than a couple dozen in any single wallet. 10 coins it is I guess.

We should have a mud-wrestling pit, a mechanical bull, a fabulously erotic gay vodka ice-fountain (none of that Russian shit), and 55-gallon drums of lube around the premises, for starters...
no place for straight folk? the image of 55 gallon lube canisters does not really excite me in the slightest .

Random thoughts spurred by referenced article: 1) After clarifying that, under current US regulatory regime, Bitcoin is classified as a commodity, the author goes on to describe requirements for entities dealing in commodity futures. Relevance? None that i can see. 2) Unless, as seems likely from the article, ICE is planning to be able to engage in partial reserve Bitcoin trading: " The federally-regulated exchanges require clearing services that effectively remove credit risk for both the buyer and seller. The clearing house guarantees that the seller will deliver the sugar, coffee, or gold as agreed under a futures contract, and that the buyer will make the full payment. If either fails to perform, it’s the clearing house––which is jointly funded by the trading firms that are members of the exchange and its owner, in this case ICE––that makes good on the delivery or the cash." We -- the Bitcoin community -- may need to crank up our educational outreach to clarify to the incoming masses that a Bitcoin IOU is not the same thing as a Bitcoin. 3) "By the market close, the ICE clearing house would have arranged to route the cash from the buyer’s to the seller’s bank account, and the Bitcoin tokens would be en route the to the Bakkt digital warehouse." 4) Article describes txs between parties within the Bakkt system as simple database txs, then later goes on to describe this as 'closely resembling the Lightning Network'. I question they know WTF they are talking about,. Perhaps the ignorant author got snowed by Loeffler, the former ICE marketeer and master of outbound communications? 5) ”Bitcoin would greatly simplify the movement of global money,” says Sprecher. “It has the potential to become the first worldwide currency.” - needs no comment 6) "If Bitcoin became the chief currency for retail, it’s likely that credit cards would disappear. So would ICE and Bakkt be antagonizing ICE’s main customers, the major banks? Not necessarily. Despite the large fees, banks typically make little money processing purchases, since they mainly return those fees to provide services such as fraud monitoring, call centers, and providing rebates that go to such rewards as frequent flyer miles and rental car discounts. Where the banks make big money is on the interest charged on balances on credit cards. Changing the purchasing system wouldn’t alter the amounts that folks borrow, just where they hold those balances." Bitcoin credit. Hmm.

I saw the edit.

Sorry Bob, but that's just a little too brokeback for some of us breeders. Straight folk will party in the front.
I'm talking about the party in the back.
Oh OK. Just saw your post. Liquor in the front, poker in the rear?

Dimon also made a point of calling blockchain technology “real,” –– while implying that crypto is not Typical. The banksters all chant the shibboleth "blockchain technology good, Bitcoin bad" while totally missing the point. There's nothing wrong with "blockchain technology" but the real breakthrough and value of Bitcoin lies in decentralization and lack of control.

I'll drive a fucking military tank. Gotta protect those hardware wallets from you crazy nuts in case I get drunk
I would worry less about your private keys and more about your private parts. You need a chastity belt rather than a tank if you plan to get drunk.
