http://www.coindesk.com/inside-bitcoins-show-to-accept-bitcoins-hand-out-paper-wallets/People who want to attend the Inside Bitcoins conference in New York City next month will have the option of paying their registration fees with bitcoins. Show organizers also say that everyone attending the show will also receive a paper wallet with 0.01 bitcoin (around $1.09 as of today’s trading) to get “hands-on experience with virtual currency.”
Wow I get a whole $1.09 back off of the $299 I have to pay. I was actually considering going, but then I always on these forums so I am pretty in-touch with what is going on. Plus I know Charlie is there so I have to sit thru some foundation BS, that will make my skin crawl. I like Bitinstant Charlie, I don't like foundation Charlie that much. Also they ask so much information, why can't I just register with bitcoin get an e-ticket. Airplanes can do it, why not conferences?
When are their going to be some high-level bitcoin meet ups, that is what we need. Most these events are just to network and introduce people to bitcoins. I am introduced to bitcoin where do I go now? I can't.
I don't know how this turned in to a rant but yeah.
