After a tiresome, yet breathtakingly beautiful 7 hour drive from Boulder to Telluride, I finally made it to the Bluegrass Festival in time to catch Steve Martin play the banjo and close out day one with some incredible tunes. Since I’ll be preoccupied through Sunday watching music and enjoying a few of days off, I figure it’s the perfect opportunity to introduce you to what is sure to be an incredible Bitcoin Conference in New York City called Inside Bitcoins. While I am not speaking at the event, I will be flying out to attend it and I hope to see many new and old faces there! A brief summary of the event is below:
There has been a lot of talk surrounding virtual currency and Bitcoin, but what impact will virtual currency have on businesses and how can one make money in this space? Explore the future of this emerging field with industry influencers at the Inside Bitcoins Conference, July 30 in New York City.
Attendees will discuss what business and investment opportunities exist, as well as the legal issues facing virtual currency.
You’ll hear from 20+ bitcoin experts on topics including The VC Take on Bitcoin, Bitcoin Boom: The Business Adoption of Bitcoin, Bitcoin and Freedom of Speech, Rethinking Content Monetization with Bitcoin, and more. View the full program here.
The evening’s drinks reception also provides the ideal forum to network with like-minded peers. Developers, entrepreneurs, investors, finance professionals, consultants, lawyers, media, and online retailers will all be present.
