Administrative office for what, bitcountant?

Unimercio and I are setting up the administrative office in Miami's financial district—highest concentration of international banks in the USA!—for something more formal than a Meetup.com group to promote DACs here in South Florida. We'll have access to conference facilities and even a swimming pool. The plan is to record formal sessions like the one in the link that you provided, as well as impromptu interviews with entrepreneurs and incumbents here.

Rather than leaving it to random entrepreneurs to come up with solutions in search of problems, we want to reach out to people in international finance who have problems in search of solutions.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NV5ubkGQUes that's how disruption works imo on 18:35 other than that a lot of blabla

"blabla" is indeed a very accurate summary, I have no idea what points they were trying to make. Some statements were also a complete contradiction to earlier ones. I was also very distracted by "the suit", I kept thinking about the Jackie Chan movie "Tuxedo" (or Earthworm Jim) and waiting for the suit to start doing outrageous things.

Maybe those guys that indirectly mentioned stuff III does in their talks but don't know III yet could be approached as advocates / connection makers!

A few great hints here! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ssGBnHiQyc  Except from the unmet swag of drinking bottled water every 5 seconds, worth watching in terms of III: 16:50,  29:55  32.00 35:10  39:25  42:40 43:30 44:48

No, I didnt mean that it would be bad to model your company after Red Hat. I just said that III staff members should not publicly claim that analogy for III....

Ah ok, gotcha!

Thinking about it I agree, naming yourself the Red-Hat of crypto would indeed be bad. Although naming Red-Hat as an inspiration for III wouldn't be harmful, especially if it's actually true and III does use some concepts from Red-Hat.

What the hell, maybe even close ties with Red-Hat and help each other. How about III and Red-Hat cooperate and build a few DACs to help Red-Hats business? To me open-source companies and DACs seem to be a natural fit anyway. I would expect Red-Hat might be open to ideas on how to make their business more efficient.

Admittedly I can't come up with any DAC that would benefit Red-Hat or it's customers right now. Customer support/feature request DAC coupled to a bounty system and developers? It would have to be for things that require tracking or security outside of the reach of the company before it would make sense to develop a distributed consensus system for it. A decentralized security system where you could check if your pc has been compromised via a cryptographic proof of system soundness?

I'll stop now, I might be going too far off topic.

But I would not promote it actively. That would come across as 'unhealthily self entitled'  (dont know a better expression).... Community members should through that hint in ounce in a while on different platforms or suggest it to some news company...

Don't know if trying to model oneself after Red-Hat is a particularly bad thing. Personally I would have a hard time coming up with a better role-model.
