Really concerning that this stage wasn't livestreamed yesterday. I would love for there to be a (FOSS && Bitcoin)-only focused conference.

how is it that the "bitcoin magazine" sponsored "bitcoin conference" is 50% shitcoin focused?

I'm guessing at this, but I'd say they let greed take over. Shitcoin companies are extremely well funded due to ICOs, token sales, etc., and have plenty of money to throw around in their marketing budget.

yes, that must be the primary reason. turns out selling shitcoins that you minted for $0 cost basis to retards is extremely profitable.
as a gen-xer you I remember the original "Wired" magazine. In the mid-90s it was the cool, anti-gov, pro-liberty, pro-tech mag. Then it morphed into a MSM, pro-commie, pro-gov mag. Seems like "Bitcoin Magazine" is moving on warp speed.....

As a millenial, I saw the same thing happen to Reddit.
