Checked out this year's Bitcoin Conference speaker list and honestly, who even are these people? Kinda baffled who wants to hear from them.

Noticed that too. If you're in the Bitcoin biz, sure, but otherwise... I really don't care about their tips!
Like, has this forum ever had members speak at a conference? Would be cool to promote this place and its history.

Exactly! It could really help boost traffic here. Maybe someone will finally bring up Satoshi's impact on Bitcoin.

Yeah, it's surprising this forum hasn’t had a strong presence at such big events. So much history here!
It’s a mixed bag. Some speakers might not hit home for everyone, but you might find a gem. Just trust your gut on who to listen to.
Why skip Saylor and Dorsey? They’re big names for a reason, right? Curious why you don't want their input.
I think Paul Atkins could be worth listening to, especially for those who keep their coins on CEXs.
Lol, the lineup feels like scrolling through an NFT collection. I'd rather hear from some lesser-known speakers.
Seems like it's all about influencers and politicians now. Wonder how that’ll affect the focus on actual Bitcoin discussions.

Honestly, the keyword is hype. Dorsey and Saylor always get attention; I’d rather hear Jack Mallers share his take.

Imagining the vibe at this conference is wild. So many Bitcoin enthusiasts in one place, gotta be electric!

If you attend, take notes! Each speaker brings something different. You might miss out on valuable insights.
Surprised it’s gotten so political. But hey, maybe those speakers will tackle Bitcoin regulations.
What’s the deal with the agenda? Some topics sound kinda dull, like retirement advice? Really?
Totally agree! And I want to hear more about Bitcoin mining specifically.
I don’t really know most of these speakers. But you mentioned excluding Saylor; why? That would’ve been nice to discuss.

Gavin Andresen used to be a big deal... but not so much anymore. Wonder if any forum members ever spoke.

I think every speaker has something to offer. It's about gathering knowledge from various perspectives.

Remember when the conference had more standout speakers? Saifedean Ammous would’ve brought some heat.
