Having other commitments right through to 2013 I didn't imagine that I could attend, but suddenly things changed & I find that I will need to be in London for a week around that time anyway so why not, flight & accommodation booked - should be fun Smiley

What's a GPU?
It is more than likely that I won't be there, but it seems like it could be a golden networking opportunity in addition to being around competent people that don't think Bitcoin itself is a Ponzi... I'm going to try!

I will be attending as a speaker and part of the official coverage. No one will recognize me though as I will be wearing a horse head mask.

Maybe we can arrange a cagefight or something?

Great marketing idea, do a jointly sponsored Bitcoin/MMA conference, lots of great matchups, guaranteed complete sell-out. 

Or get going a rumour going that Zhou Tong will be attending and doing a Q&A session, presenting further evidence in an attempt to to clear his name...many would travel great distances to see and participate in that.

Actually maybe that second one could actually be done and I suspect he'd be up for it, you might wanna propose it to him.  Over Skype, not in person, as I'd be afraid of a lynch mob trying to take the law into their own hands if they get physical access to him.

Yeah thats going to be weird, my wife still has trouble accepting that I do something legit and it's bitcoin that pays the bills. I think she's expecting the police to show up any moment.

Enterprising Psychology PhD students should set up a booth to evaluate attendees for effects of early adopter syndrome. There's a great dissertation waiting to be written using this community as subjects.

More seriously, after all the accusations and bad blood on these boards arising from the Bitcoinica fallout and Pirate controversy, it should be therapueutic and good for people to actually interact as real human beings, hopefully revealing that not everyone's a scammer and the majority of early Bitcoin adopters are in fact honest, bright, and hardworking individuals.  Hopefully.

I'll be there, and look forward to the surreal experience of being entirely surrounded by people who actually know what Bitcoin is.

I'll be there !
I have a technical slot to go over what I have been doing with MultiBit over the summer.

Gary Rowe I know is coming too.

Mike Hearn is also speaking so unless he is using a fancy Google telepresence robot will also be there.

There's a good chance I'll be going to the London conference, and my main motivation to do so will be to meet in person people I've known from the forums. The more the merrier.

As a resource to both myself and other people who want to know if the trip is worthwhile and who to look for, I'm inviting everyone who thinks he may attend to post in this thread.

Update: I'll attend and stay at the Royal National hotel.
