33c3 Review (Streamin' and chill)

This time, we'll just have a rather informal get-together and view recordings of two or three relevant talks from the recent 33rd Chaos Communication Congress, with the opportunity of discussion afterwards. Some of the Munich community were there, and it was quite a blast, as every year! And although the Chaos Computer Club is very aligned with non-commercial (or even anti-commercial) values of Hacker Ethic, and thus crypto-currencies and blockchains are usually not given much room, many people from the space nevertheless were hanging out there, and besides a lot of self-organized sessions there were three very good major talks about the subject.

Please do RSVP or cancel your RSVP as soon as you know you'd come or not, so that we roughly know how many drinks and pizza to order. We don't have a sponsor this time, so we'll pass around the hat, for everyone to contribute around €3-5. Thank you!

19:00 Doors open, food, drinks, socializing

19:30 Bitcoin/Blockchain news roundup + discussions

20:00 [Video stream] Introduction to Blockchains by vimja + discussions

This is a very good introduction talk about how (real, actual, proof-of-work-based) blockchains work on a technical level.

Target audience: Intended for hackers and developers, but should also be understandable for an audience with a financial background and just some technological affinity.

21:15 [Video stream] A world without Blockchain by Mark van Cuijk + discussions

In our community we've become used to the promises and wonders of the blockchain. But "how does national and international money transfer work in the world of banks?" How do those legacy systems work they use until today? Let's find out.

Target audience: Newcomers and everyone

22:00 [Video stream] The Zcash anonymous cryptocurrency by pesco + discussions

"Zcash is the third iteration of an extension to the Bitcoin protocol that provides true untraceability, i.e. fully anonymous transactions. It is arguably the first serious attempt to establish this extension, in the form of its own blockchain, beyond the form of an academic proposal. The talk provides an introduction to the magic that makes it work."

Target audience: Advanced (and only if there is demand)

23:00 Closing time (maybe)

Paper Wallet Workshop

Did you know you can print your bitcoins on paper and store them safely offline that way? Also holiday season is near, so we'll have an introduction talk and workshop about paper wallets, which make an original and unusual Christmas gift as well.

Apart from that, far beyond the use in Bitcoin and crypto-currencies, the concept of private and public keys, as depicted on such a paper wallet, may become more and more pervasive in the future in general. Passwords seem to be unsafe, as users forget them or pick too easy ones. And no matter what certain big hardware and OS manufacturers try to tell you, biometric identification like face or fingerprint recognition is unsafe as well and can easily be spoofed, as often demonstrated by ethical hackers.

So we'll take a look how secure (while hopefully still easy) identification and authentication may look in the future of a blockchain world. Maybe personal crypto-key management can and will some day become an intuitive habit in everyday life, just like we're used to handle our physical keys.

Target audience: Beginners

You're encouraged to bring your tablets or notebooks for this hands-on session! You should already own some bitcoins (or fractions), and have a wallet installed, e.g. Electrum.

Timetable:

19:00 Doors open, get-together, food + drinks

19:30 Bitcoin & Blockchain news roundup

20:00 Rupert Zinnecker: Paper Wallets for Crypto-Currencies

• What are crypto-currencies?

• How do I manage my crypto-currency units? ⇒ Wallets, especially paper wallets

• Why do paper wallets work? ⇒ Blockchain technology

• The paperwallet.bit website

• Paper wallets as crypto cash, is that possible?

20:30 Workshop: Try it yourselves! And/or drinks, snacks, get-together. Open end!



You're very welcome to bring little things (cookies, tea-light candles, etc) to contribute to an xmas party atmosphere. Maybe leave a comment or contact one of the organizers so that we can better coordinate initiatives in this direction! Thank you!

Hello all,

as many of you have already noticed and RSVP'd, we'll have the opportunity to be hosted at Microsoft Germany's new offices in Schwabing on November 02. Microsoft will have a "DX Blockchain Day" with an internal part during the day, and a public part for our meetup group in the evening. Many thanks to Kerstin Eichmann for organizing this whole track!

The topic of the evening will be:

Introduction Azure Project Bletchley – Blockchain as a Service for Enterprise Solution

Speaker: Patrick Schidler, Technical Strategist at Microsoft

More Details tba

Space is limited, and people are curious for locations such as this, so you should RSVP *now*, before this event becomes more visible on the meetup site in general. Also you should de-RSVP as soon as you know you can't come to make place for others! Thank you!

Normally our Stammtisch would have taken place on November 02, but as an exception we have moved this to the middle of the month (third Wednesday) to November 16. We'll almost certainly have no additional event at Wayra in November.

 

Thank you for your attention and see you!

19:30 bit4coin -- running a bootstrapped bitcoin business for three years

bit4coin has been started almost exactly 3 years ago on Oct. 21, 2013. bit4coin (https://bit4coin.net) is selling Bitcoin to consumers and offering special solutions to businesses in Europe. In the talk, the founder Dolf Diederichsen will reflect on the difficulties of starting and running a self-funded bitcoin business, especially finding banking, complying with regulation, and fighting fraud. He will also share his view on the industry as well some prospects about the plans for the future.

bit4coin is a bitcoin gift voucher service. It works similar to other gift cards: After purchasing bit4coin vouchers, customers can redeem them for bitcoins online at bit4coin.net. Vouchers are size and shape of credit cards. bit4coin gift vouchers are a great way for bitcoin beginners to buy their first bitcoins, as bit4coin takes customers through all steps of the process and provides a concise introduction on bitcoin.“ ---from https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bit4coin

(Dolf has been a long-standing member of the Munich Bitcoin community.)

20:15 ScalingBitcoin Conference Milan Review - We'll provide a summary of this conference which took place on October 8th and 9th in Milan, and we'll have the opportunity to discuss some mentioned specifics or scalability prospects of blockchains in general.

ja kann ich gerne machen. bzw was würdest du am text oben dafür abändern wollen? (gerne auch per PM)

Hm. Hast recht, gibt eigtl. nix zu ändern. Höchstens die Art der Ansprache, also etwas "unpersönlicher", so als würde man eben nicht nur Bekannte ansprechen. Kannst mir übrigens auch gerne per PM schreiben, dann krieg ich früher mit, dass ne Antwort kam. LG
