Day two was awesome.
Tons of topics and information. It's so big you can't attend all sessions.
What I keep having to be reminded is that bitcoin is an experiment and nothing is a sure thing.
Many of what is going on is uncharted waters. A roller coaster if you will.
Doing things right the first time is a good approach. Jeff G mentioned the development of bitcoin is extremely slow given it affects so many even with simple changes to the code.
smoothie, where u at boy? i keep lookin' over my shoulder for a little fruit drink to poke me in the ass, much like over the last year. ![Kiss](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/kiss.gif) You here at the conference? yep. got my handle on my badge. Cool. Let me know if you wanna meet up. My username is on front and back of my shirt. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I'm lookin' for ya too. :-) Heading to Yifu's talk at 1:30.

Bitcoin is the first monetary system to credibly offer perfect information to all economic participants.

So I walk into the tech session looking for the guy with turquoise shirt. You have two choices:
1. A short, wimpy, nerdy guy with a beard and thick black glasses. Classic geek. 2. A big handsome guy with a great tan and someone you wouldn't dare punch in the nose.
Which do you choose as smoothie?
Shouldn't this be a poll? Build one and they will come. Since it is smoothie after all . Done.

Shouldn't this be a poll? Edit: But my guess would be a big fat number two! Careful now. I could be using reverse reverse psychology.

Alt chain panel was interesting:
Crazy rabbit and Coblee in my opinion did great. The FRC and ripple reps in my view did not. Lots of unanswered questions on their "currency" of choice.
FRC coin supply is in the hands of a few. Same for ripple.
Ripple is a company. It has a booth here at the conference. It claims it is decentralized and soon to be open sourced.
My main question to ripple supporters is what is to stop a government from going to their office(s) and shutting their system down?
Acutally, Ripple has way bigger problems than a danger of possible government raid.

Lol FEDs must be jealous now, even in their wildest wet dream they would not create something like XRP: no need to release data about total money in circulation, and distribution: Opencoin could just giveaway however many XRPs to whomever they like, and possibly no one will find out. And most importantly, the possibility to print more and create inflation without even being found. Maybe they just think "How about we take no action and see how much suckers' money this thing will siphon off, so that we may improve our Ponzi scheme in a similar way?"

One thing I could not help notice in the booth layout on the conference map is that the BFL/BitPay booth reads as BitPay only. BFL was not listed on that booth on the conference map.
I found that odd.

Lol Conference was an absolute success despite some unnamed businesses at the conference failing to deliver anything of value. In my opinion. Lots of development going on. Yifu and Avalon are leading the ASIC landscape very professionally. Lots of good news. New faces, more women involved, lots of press coverage.
