The venue is Science Park Amsterdam. This is where early attempts to integrate cryptography with electronic money were made by David Chaum (Chaum.com) (inventor of many cryptographic protocols. His 1981 paper, "Untraceable Electronic Mail, Return Addresses, and Digital Pseudonyms", laid the groundwork for the field of anonymous communications research. For example the predecessor of TOR: Mix networks), through his companies DigiCash (anonymous transactions) and ecash (anonymous electronic cash system), which used cryptography to anonymise electronic money transactions.

Speakers list will be updated coming days:

"In the Golden Age Amsterdam was the first place in the world to create a fixed location for the trade in stocks and shares (1611). The shares of the very first limited liability company in the world to be traded were those of the Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, abbreviated to VOC).
Three hundred years later Berlage built the third Amsterdam Stock Exchange (1903); a building that generated a lot of controversy and, today, is considered the beginning of modern Dutch architecture."

The team setting up the 3-day conference -- Amsterdam Bitcoin Conference Reloaded -- have specifically avoided anything happening in that little cafe or with Bas.  His conflicting announcements disruptive to the team who have worked so hard to put this whole free event together.



The Free 3-Day Conference starts at 12:00 here:

This is a bit confusing. I understood that the Bitcoin conference was cancelled so ChrisJ from Feathercoin organised an alternative at Knowmads Business School in Amsterdam starting today details below.
