Bitcoin Inside
-
I was in Bitcoin Inside in Berlin last week.
God what a hype there is around crypto currencies!
Of course everything was around Bitcoin but in many presentations, during coffee breaks and launches many guys talked about alt coins mining, present and future.
Many many guys talked about feathercoin as “one of the strongest contender in the stormy market of alt coins”. I didn’t received even just a single bad comment on feathercoin.
Many guys told me they are mining feather or dodge as alt coins, almost nothing else.
Two days very very interesting

Hi thanks for that update its great to hear from real crypto enthusiasts.
Can you tell us anything else about the Bitcoin Inside that you think was interesting or maybe relevant to us? (new tech , new companies etc etc)

With the internet these days the lunatics have taken over the asylum. A forum, blog and social media does not give you an accurate insight into the views of the larger population and it’s a dangerous breeding ground for pluralistic ignorance.

MrWyrm,
please give a look at the conference (http://www.mediabistro.com/insidebitcoins/). It’s not some sort of “meetup of crypto nerds who have time to waste”. It’s the biggest BitCoin conference in the world.
There were all the big guys involved in Bitcoin hardware (ButterFly Project, Knc), Exchangers (BTC China, Coinnext), Cloud Miners and so on. I spoke with Bitcoin developers, Bobby Lee (simply the owner of the Biggest Exchanger BTC China), attorneys-at-law, Rapresentative from Global Bitcoin Alliance, Cops, Venture Capitals and so on.
So I thinks that Lunatics were somewhere else. In the Day 2 at the conference “Gold 2.0, The VC take on Bitcoin” there were VCs who can controls many hundreds of millions dollar found.
Even the cost of the conference (more than 1 BTC) was not a fee for freaks & students.

Hey, no, I wasn’t meaning that. What I meant was that if you only frequented the internet, the people speaking loudest are the ‘insane’. It’s refreshing to hear views from the wider scene, as these are exactly the sort of people who don’t spend time on the trollboxes chatting rubbish and they offer a much bigger insight into ‘sanity’ ;D

OK, sorry I misunderstood. :-)

Actually when i first read MrWyrm’s 1st post, I made the same assumption as darkpila but when I re-read, I could get the sense MrWyrm wanted…

Sorry! :-[

By the way everything was, obiouvsly, very Bitcoin Centric. So mining hardware was only sha (GOD the 600 Gh/sec card is something about 22000$!!!), and so on…
But the thing impressed me more was the amount of money around BitCoin and cryptopin general. Hundreds of developers, Venture Capitals, Hardware and more.
Think about that just Bitstamp moves 200.000.000 $ every month!!!
