I'm co-organizing the first Atlanta Bitcoin Consumer Fair to be held in April, 2015 in Atlanta, GA. The Fair's focus will be on consumers and merchants and in particular, in-person payments at physical retailers. We plan on having a Vendors alley with over 100 vendors selling things for bitcoin (think arts and crafts fair). We will also have exhibitors, bitcoin kioks, and speaking tracks for those in the payment and technology space. We are looking for speakers, vendors, exhibitors, sponsors and of course, attendees. We will really be marketing and pushing this Fair to Bitcoin newbies, consumers just getting their feet wet and wanting to learn more about this exciting technology.

Speakers: Some of the speakers will be announced in the next week but we're looking for high quality dynamic speakers on the business and technical sides of Bitcoin.

Vendors: If you sell things for bitcoin, you need to be here. We expect to have 1000 participants with bitcoin wallets loaded on their phones. We want this to be the largest collection of people buying and selling things for bitcoin in the world today.

Exhibitors: If you sell services to consumers or merchants or payment processors, this will be the place to be.

Sponsors: Get your message out to the Bitcoin community. Several sponsorship opportunities available.

If you're interested in any of the above, please contact me via a direct message on here or at bitcoinconsumerfair@use.startmail.com

Interested in attending? Sign up for the mailing list at http://www.bitcoinconsumerfair.com or follow us on Twitter @bitcoinconsumer

We look forward to seeing you there.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Our website has been updated with additional information about the upcoming Fair. See http://www.bitcoinconsumerfair.com In addition, we'll be at #btcmiami at the Microdesic booth. Be sure to come by and say hello. We're still looking for dynamic speakers and small vendors selling things for Bitcoin. Contact questions@bitcoinconsumerfair.com for more info.

Ideally, I'd like to find speakers on the topics of
recognizing Bitcoin scams
earning Bitcoin as a freelancer
Bitcoin security
Bitcoin economics

Feel free to pitch a speech idea. Also, our super early registration discount runs through the end of this month. Be sure to get your tickets today. Group discounts available.

This sounds great! I definitely look forward to attending. (Might even grab a vendor booth if one is still available.)

Thanks for posting this. =)
