Israel Bitcoin Conference July 28-29, 2014

[Meni Rosenfeld]

Critical Update: The conference has been cancelled. See http://bitcoin.org.il/files/Israel%20Bitcoin%20Conference%20Cancellation%20Notice.pdf.
Instead, we will be having a conference on October 19-20: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=734556

Hi all,

On July 28-29 we will be holding a Bitcoin conference in Tel Aviv, a joint work of the Israeli Bitcoin Association and Media Bistro's "Inside Bitcoins" brand. More details about the event are available at http://bitcointlv.com/.

We expect hundreds of people from around the world to participate, and we have ~30 confirmed speakers consisting of both Bitcoin's worldwide experts (including, for example, slush, Stefan Thomas and Vitalik Buterin) and Israel's local talent.

We're designing the conference to have something for everyone, with topics covering both Bitcoin's industry (businesses, start-ups, commerce, communities, regulation and authorities) and technology (core protocol, software, features, algorithms and academic research).

The tentative agenda is available on the site, but it is still actively developed with new sessions added and existing sessions being finalized.

The early bird registration price is $259 for the whole conference, though there are some discounted ticket options.

The deadline for enjoying the best rates will end soon, so make sure not to miss this opportunity to network, learn about developments in the Bitcoin world, and visit the Bitcoin empire that is Israel.

We're also looking for more sponsors for the event, so if this is relevant for your company you're welcome to contact our team to discuss the sponsorship opportunities.

I hope to see you all there!

Currently there are no Bitcoin-related guidlines or rules from Israeli authorities.

Looks great Meni, we'll be there!

[deepestfear]

Very cool, Meni!

[Meni Rosenfeld]

Bump. The agenda has been updated with new great speakers and exciting sessions, including not only many respected Bitcoin experts but also higher-ups in Israel's government, including a member of the parliament and the director of research in Israel's central bank.

Only a few days are left to enjoy the current price point, so don't forget to purchase your ticket to this unique event!

Another important point is that the Hilton hotel will accept Bitcoin payments for reservations for the conference. You can also use a site like http://btctrip.com/ to pay with Bitcoin for a ticket.

Who would pay 500 bucks to hear a bunch of lying schmucks patting each other on the back?

You've actually got Tamar Zandberg the leftist, socialist, feminist Knesset member attending as well as Dr. Edward Aufnbenher of Bank of Israel. These are the very people that drove Israel to it's knees and you've invited them, they don't belong in the conference, all the invited members are psuedointellectuals at best trying to cannibalize the movement.

If you indeed cared at all about original innovation and wanted to see a lot of young, brilliant minds at the conference you'd do well to prevent these people from even attending, let alone giving speeches.

Keep being the slave of the Mossad/FBI (which are the slaves of the bankers) and see how far Bitcoin will get.

Oy, Vey! Conspiracy!

Fuck off.

How safe it travel in and around Tel Aviv these days? I planned a trip there in 2012 and had to cancel because a bomb exploded on a public bus in downtown Tel Aviv, causing several injuries and long-range rockets launched from Gaza reached as far north as Tel Aviv and southern Jerusalem. Israel has been on my bucket list for a long time and this would give me an excuse to go. Well this and Baha’i Gardens in Haifa, the mountain fortress of Masada etc.

Given the fact that Gaven has admitted to meeting with the FBI it's hardly a conspiracy, the average intellectual might even safely assume it to be fact.

Typical loud PoS noob, have you ever written a line of code in your life? How come you haven't been invited to the conference yet?

We are attempting to convey some points here, go troll somewhere else, nobody wants you here.

I am always surprised how safe Tel Aviv is when I visit. Walking the streets late at night in most of the city is fine, everything is open late anyways.

They call TA 'The Bubble', it doesn't feel like you are in a region with so much tension. It's beaches, bars, food, nightlife and socialising. Head to Jerusalem etc and things feel a bit different, but for tourists there are rarely problems. Masada, Dead Sea, Eilat, Caesaria are all amazing.

I won't be there in July but might head there in September. Hope the conference goes well.

Yay, the trolls are here!

It's $270 currently, not $500. Speakers are well-known Bitcoin experts, researchers and entrepreneurs.

You may not like their opinions, but being in positions of power they are able to affect the course of Bitcoin, it is important to educate them and to hear what they have to say.

It's safe. Before your post I barely remembered there's such a thing as terrorist attacks. I don't think there were any attacks in Tel Aviv after the one you mentioned.

That's really good to hear. If there's enough time to get things in order, I think I'm going to try to get to this one. Thanks!
