yep, I'm trying to reach out to one of the panelists on Bitcoin senate panel that teaches at my school to help impart that idea this coming week and the competitive consequences thereof. I hope it works.

Agreed.  Plug and Play has operations in Singapore, Jordan, Germany, Canada, Mexico, Poland, Spain and elsewhere.  However, Silicon Valley has some of the best dev talent in the world, so hopefully they (we) can tap the nearby resources and push them abroad if necessary.

If anyone wants to learn more, feel free to contact me: scott [at] plugandplaytechcenter.com

If the US doesn't get on board, it may risk experiencing a "bitcoin brain drain". Devs being recruited and moved abroad.

there's also the possibility of Blueseed getting the funding it needs to charter that offshore cruiseship to house developers/entrepreneurs in international waters right off of the Valley

At the moment yes.. but sooner this year (2014) crowd equities are due to launch in the US through the JOBS act.. SEC is supposed to be writing up guidelines on it right now.. those dingy bastards.
