Hello Community! As you might know we've done several events so far around the world to get the word of BlackCoin spread by showing face. TheDoge earlier went to the NY Crypto Con, StGNU ran around at the Toronto Bitcoin Conference and me, maarx and Vizique showed face at BitCoin 2014. Next to that is my own trip to Miami to meet the MaxBorgesAgency and not to forget Vizique' trip to the XBTerminal' Launch Party.

We are showing face and we feel like that is important for the growth of BlackCoin. Not only finding out about new cool projects within the Crypto Currency space, but actually talking to companies that could soon start supporting BlackCoin. Not only does it give trust to the company but it shows these companies that we are serious about BlackCoin.

In two weeks however another important conference is coming up, namely the Bitcoin in the Beltway 2014 conference in Washington DC. We are currently planning to show face there with me, TheDoge and StGNU as a team. However, there are costs.

We have the funds left from the Community Bounty Fund that we have set aside for exactly these things. However since the costs are a bit higher then the usual conference visit we'd like to know your thoughts.

The costs would be:
Flight Soepkip - 1300$
Hotel Soepkip* - 250$
Flight TheDoge - 170$
Hotel TheDoge* - 250$
2x Tickets - 600$

2570$ - BTC: ~ 4 BTC = 14200 BC

There is currently 20800 BC left in these funds, so that would leave us with 6600 BC for future usage. We'd like the approval of the community to use these funds for this trip.

To save costs me and TheDoge will share a room.

For ~ 18k BC , we can get McKie, TheDoge, Soepkip in Washington. We already have this money we just need approval.

I'm personally fine with this. I think it would be good for them to show face.

Would like some reflection on it afterwards, though.

I'd like to add my support to these guys going to the conference. If the Community would like to support them then that would be great! We have already shown that having "skin in the game" as it were by turning up to these events across the world has a direct and positive impact on our image and the way were looked upon by our peers in the industry.

To date, the effects have been immensely positive and BlackCoin is being talked about and held (!) by Bitcoiners all over the world. Face to face interactions, shaking peoples hands and looking them in the eye is an unbeatable method of networking.

Ultimately though, its up to you guys. I hope you support Soepkip and the guys, especially considering all the marvellous work they have done so far and continue to do!
So, over to you...

I think Soepkip should only represent Blackcoin in Europe to limit the costs. This would enable more future representations. Don't spend everything right now, as we need a future!

what are the arguments for flying soepkip to the US (a 2nd time)? Wouldn't it be better to have 3 local US guys represent BlackCoin for the price of 1 soepkip?
There are many leaders here in the BlackCoin community that could represent us. soepkip could sit this one out.

I would prefer if Soepkips expenses go toward development and to limit his travel to Europe.

+1. Compare with DarkCoin, I am more interested in Blackcoin since it has more potential momentum to help the price soar.

Blackcast - Priceless$

Seriously what do you plan to prove?, I wont see you there. I will see you on the blackcast like many others.

[StuartGT]

I agree with many that SMcKie & another join TheDoge in Washington, meanwhile I suggest Soepkip and the rest of us begin planning for the other upcoming Bitcoin conferences: https://bitcoin.org/en/events

These five jump out:

• 2014-06-24 ~ Hong Kong, China ~ Inside Bitcoins Conference & Expo
• 2014-07-01 ~ London, England ~ WIRED Money
• 2014-07-03 ~ Dublin, Ireland ~ Bitcoin Finance 2014
• 2014-07-28 ~ Tel Aviv, Israel ~ Inside Bitcoins Conference & Expo
• 2014-08-09 ~ St. Petersburg, Russia ~ Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies: Prospects for Development in Russia

If our Chinese brethren can get together and promote BC in Hong Kong that'd be cool.

London, Dublin & Israel are easy for Soepkip (and many others) to reach from within the EU.

Pavel (Rat4) may be able to gather a crew together - while staying anonymous himself - to visit St Petersberg.

BlackCoin boots on the ground, in more places!

[vizique]

wel we also have CoinSummit http://www.coinsumm.it/ coming up which is one I could/would like to attend. £540GBP s no small beans. Total package inc travel is about 1.64 BTC or 6000 BLK and as its just a train journey, the travel is a short commute each day. Your verdict?
 
So, thats an easy one to add to the list and get get done

as for Russia and Israel.... do we have people there? I know that the guys from Spondoolies tech hold BLK and they're Israeli as we had a real good chat at Bitcoin2014 in Amsterdam. I'm happy to go to this one for Business Development opportunities

as for Hong Kong, I'll get Gritt to cost it up so we can see if its possible to send him to one that side of the world.

Remember, this is something I advise anyone of you to do. Go to local Bitcoin meetups, clubs, group, seminars and conferences that may be near you. They're great places to meet other digital currency advocates and inspirational when it comes to ideas!

throwing ideas out there, looking for feedback

[hitchcoin]

Agree with Soepkip sitting this-one out to limit the costs. No offence I'm sure you would do a great job Just stick with your side of the globe ;-)

very low amount of btc traded on eveerycoin today :O (the calm before the storm!  everyones cashing out of other alts to get ready to get back into BC!)

Yeah, I was looking at Mintpal this morning and if VRC weren't there, there wouldn't be a single 1000 BTC volume coin right now. Quiet indeed. But even with VRC, it's still a very low volume day all around on Mintpal.

Nothing with value except for BC, that is Mintpals fault for adding so many shit coins.

I'm a fan of BC (even bought some more on this dip down to 25700), but I wouldn't say the sole coin worth investing in on Mintpal is just BC. There are obvious other coins that still have value (due to features, due to marketshare, due to community, etc). I agree that additions of all the shitcoins is pathetic and I feel bad for those that lose money getting caught up on the next new thing, but I don't agree with your comment about "nothing with value except BC".
