I thought this is his interpretation of the fact that the organizers had his speech already changed to a Q&A. He's just trying to put a spin on it making it sound like it's his decision. On the other hand, you could be right, it would be very risky for him to show up in a real Q&A, given his recent performance in creative writing and in Youtube recordings.
It's just like when he challenged Andrew to a debate and then later reworked the conditions to make it fit for him to get by without looking like a complete fraud. An email debate is an analogy to changing the Q&A to a round table discussion so he can either have his lawyers there or somebody who won't incriminate all of them with bullshit and lies talk. Yet another cowardly move from Homero.

He could always have BitJane hide under the podium with her own mic. Errr, maybe not, she would probably sound a lot more brusk and burly than Homero and the audience might notice...

Is anyone from this board going to be at Homero's shitshow this weekend at BTC Miami? This is going to be captured on camera by someone right?
It is supposed to be recorded and published online by the organizers. Suchmoon, I think you missed this post: https://i.imgur.com/TKntahP.pngReference Hashtalk / archive.today / web archiveSounds to me like they won't be showing up for their conference time slot. They will be setting it up somewhere else, decide if there's any taping of the event (by who and post edits), who will be asking what question, etc.. I'm surprised the community hasn't picked up on this yet. I thought this is his interpretation of the fact that the organizers had his speech already changed to a Q&A. He's just trying to put a spin on it making it sound like it's his decision. On the other hand, you could be right, it would be very risky for him to show up in a real Q&A, given his recent performance in creative writing and in Youtube recordings. Maybe you're right, the statement could be interpreted either way.

I'm debating if I should go to the conference.. I will be staying at the Delano in South Beach for a couple of days attending a party at a gallery my friend owns. I would love to be at the conference just to see Josh kill paycoin, will see if I have time to see the final fail..
Am glad to see many have jumped ship on HT, IDK why it took so long TBH..

It looks like I'm not the only one slightly disturbed by how dismissive Mr.Garza is about his long-time supporters jumping ship: https://hashtalk.org/topic/291661-Should a CEO / leader be flippant about losing their most trusted and loyal base? IE a life happens type of attitude. 2-Or should a CEO spend some time to find out why people that trusted him, have lost that trust?
And yet again - I'm not going to say anything but oops I already said it: GAWCEO What I meant is I know why they left and can provide details that would make people think. But i think it's bad form, so I choose not too.
I think it's generally considered bad form to insinuate some kind of wrongdoing without providing details. Put up or shut up.

I know one thing Josh should never have promised a 20.00 Floor. They try to cover that one up left and right. That was there biggest LIE and all the others are small compared to that one. Also should never have allowed XPY to be premined. Theres no way for them to know how many coins they would have to pay back on at this point. Not like there going to pay for them anyway - But just saying they would be up in the high millions. So the HT people should look at all the lies as a whole and not just one or 2 instances of straight up lies either. Someone said it earlier stick it me once shame on me - Stick it to me twice shame on you. I got out after the first LIE hashlets never obsolete - always highest paying. Ahh well

He hides behind NDA or professionalism when things like this happen... In reality it's simply because there is nothing good he can say about what he's doing and that those people left for legitimate reasons... So he just heavily implies that the people are less than savory or hiding something... Seeing a pattern here?? Common denominator??

Due to being at CES in Vegas all last week, I cannot make it to Miami. With all due respect to the organizers, it just isn't going to work out for me; even if I would also like to see this wannabe dig his hole deeper.
With that said, I will contribute to a bounty to insure any relevant Garza activity is covered on video.

As someone who writes scholastic papers and online articles, I find it offensive when people steal others' work and claim it as their own. In my opinion, it shows no class or progressive thought. Then again, what would one expect from someone supporting Garza - AND comparing him to the likes of Edison no less?! Seriously... I about lost my breakfast when I read that. These days, services like Turnitin are good at catching plagiarists within minutes of scanning their content, but some people still don't get it. Oh well... such is life. Scott-

The $20 floor was necessary to hold people off this long. The $20 floor is the only reason people switched to hashpoints when hashlets started floundering. No 20 dollar floor and he would have had to explain why the "never obsolete" hashlets weren't earning coins.

I'm a bit surprised that with the "honor" program they didn't increase the "floor" to $50 or $100. It wouldn't really cost them anything, since we are talking about this dragging for decades potentially. Maybe that will be the next carrot.

Or maybe a $100,000 floor and each month some lucky winner gets selected to sell their 1 coin for that much. Sure as hell would make it better for the price of XPY. Of course they would rig it, and it's probably illegal to sell "tickets" to a lottery like that, but since when has GAW been about upholding any law?

How about buying back Paycoins @ $100,000 each?? * GAW promises to buy back 1 Paycoin per month on it's Honor Program™Perhaps then when the math is as simple as possible the morons who still do not understand that what is being done is an in your face Ponzi scheme would figure it out.... LOL- I got ninja'd by Waffle!

We had an honor code and council to deal w/ plagiarism - its a big deal if you ask me (and really offensive to the instructors and asshole-ish to the authors/scholars). On more than one occasion I have though about how the digital currency ecosystem could use its own honor code/set of standards notwithstanding whatever laws and regulations are also applicable to the industry.
