A serious discussion about exchange sites will require a Bitcoin Legal Thinktank (made up of actual lawyers, regulators and such). It's all about the legal issues. The tech issues are easy by comparison.
I decided yesterday to form exactly that.... here in New York City.
We will be hosting a weekly Bitcoin Legal Thinktank Meeting here at our OnlyOneTV Studios on 5th Ave in New York City.... specifically for attorneys, regulatory people, etc. to brainstorm on legal issues around Bitcoin --- mass acceptance, exchange sites / businesses (especially within the US), etc.
No, it will not be taped or broadcast. (Unless attendees surprise me by telling me that they want it to be.) It will be a recurring private meeting.
If you are, or know anyone who is, an attorney or otherwise works in the fields of regulation around money, banking, etc... Please contact me directly for an invitation.
[email protected] or telephone or text: 646-580-0022
If you are in (or passing through) New York City, that would be perfect. If you can only attend via skype, that can be arranged as well. We currently have the capacity for up to 35 simultaneous attendees via skype (although we expect this group to be much smaller).
Of course, you know I'll be regularly updating you all on our findings and conclusions... here and on The Bitcoin Show (and El Show de Bitcoin en Espanol)... on OnlyOneTV.com
Please have all your attorney friends who have any interest in Bitcoin contact me directly -- no matter what city or country they are in. Ok?
