Check out the digital - life - design conference running right now:

http://www.dld-conference.com/program/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Life_Design

They do not seem to speak about bitcoin at all. It still seems to be very far away for some mainstream people.

I politely asked about Bitcoin on their facebook site and got deleted pretty quickly:

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

Anyone in MUNICH should stop by and see what's going on.  This looks like a corporatist/government sponsored event, so I imagine that only technologies which can be monitored or controlled by the government will be allowed onto the agenda.

Didn't you see all status updates are by themselves? Their policy is to delete all replies I guess. I've seen this before on other pages, don't think it has anything to do with bitcoin.

it is. besides that the sponsoring is from a publisher having ties to the INSM, a powerful lobby organization known for trying to influence journalism and public opinion by eh... unconventional means. like bribery, covered advertising and planting texts prewritten by companies as journalism.

What fools we must be to see value in Bitcoin when it is ignored by such geniuses as Sean P. and Mark Z.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

The speaker was Jack Dorsey of Twitter, exploring alternative payment plans.

I watched the tale end live. I'm sure there's an archive video somewhere.
