I hope that the middle east crisis allows this conference to proceed as planned this time
Thanks for the update saw it in the other thread so thought I would monitor this one as well.

Any idea who will be speaking at the conference or are the speakers the same ones from July just delayed a few months.

Hey Meni,
I don't want to hijack your thread, but I have a quick question. I can't make it in Oct., however I will be in the region in Dec. Do you guys have regular meetings somewhere? I would love to meet up with some bitcoin peers in Jerusalem when I visit.

-Cheers
Indeed we do! We have a very active Meetup group (and associated forum thread) with a variety of activities. The flagship meetup is biweekly lectures on various Bitcoin topics. These are usually hosted in a venue provided to us by Google's Tel Aviv offices. We also have a physical hub in Tel Aviv for the Bitcoin community, the Bitcoin emBassy, where you can always find Bitcoin people, and which has designated gathering times twice a week.

Most of the activity is in Tel Aviv, if you'll be in Jerusalem specifically, there are some Bitcoiners there who will be happy to meet up, and we can try to organize a larger meetup at the time of your visit.

Hi all,

On October 19-20 we will be holding a Bitcoin conference in Tel Aviv, a joint work of the Israeli Bitcoin Association and Media Bistro's "Inside Bitcoins" brand. More details about the event are available at http://bitcointlv.com/.

This will replace the original conference planned for July 28-29, which was unfortunately cancelled due to the recent conflict in Israel. We expect the situation to be fully resolved by the time of the new date.

We expect hundreds of people from around the world to participate, and we have ~40 speakers consisting of both Bitcoin's worldwide experts and Israel's local talent. The agenda will be based on the original agenda, with some modifications that will be finalized moving forward.

We're designing the conference to have something for everyone, with topics covering both Bitcoin's industry (businesses, start-ups, commerce, communities, regulation and authorities) and technology (core protocol, software, features, algorithms and academic research).

The tentative agenda is available on the site, but it is still actively developed with new sessions added and existing sessions being finalized.

The early bird registration price is $179 for the whole conference, though there are some discounted ticket options.

The deadline for enjoying the best rates will last until the end of August, so make sure not to miss this opportunity to network, learn about developments in the Bitcoin world, and visit the Bitcoin empire that is Israel.

Any questions or requests can be directed to [email protected].

I hope to see you all there!
