Is the high-quality video posted somewhere yet?

Great seeing pics from the event! Thanks for posting these up, Tony. Shame we never got to talk bots. My boss works out of the office in your city though...

yea.. enjoy seeing the pics. Can't wait for the videos.

The beer was just OK. Dat crypto[guys] doe....

Come on tell us who's who!

I do not know... All I know is - I do not see the faces of vikram, Eddie (from the music DAC), emski, Empirical1.1 or myself on the above pictures.

[disclosures]
1. I do not claim any or all of the above people have been there.
2. I do not claim  some/all  of the above people are on the pictures but facing backwards.
3. I do not claim that I have been there to know who is on the pictures.
4. I do not claim that I am telling the truth in points 1 to 3 or the original statement.

Come on tell us who's who!

This week we had a very rare lunar eclipse.
An even more rare event is me saying something profound in public.
I have no idea what it might have been.
So imagine the most profound thing you can imagine hearing.
Yeah, it was like that.

[Stan]

... unless I3 has said they don't want unofficial versions out.

That's what they said .. asked for

This is simply because we are merging in the slides and audio with video of the talk so people can see and hear the whole thing clearly.
This takes editing time.
If the raw audio is published ahead of this, many people won't come back to see the polished video.
(Who has two hours to listen to it twice?)

Brian is more eager to release this than you are to hear it, so he will make sure everyone knows the instant its available.

Awesome! I had not seen the stuff on Facebook yet. It seems like Dan didn't hold back just because he was speaking at a Bitcoin conference. The Bitcoin community needs more people willing to speak out about it not being perfect. There is far too many rainbows and butterflys for my liking. This is part of the reason that has driven me to support Alt coins, Bitcoin doesn't seem willing or eager to fix its problems. By spending 5 minutes reading around on the Bitcoin forums the general attitude is that it is perfect. They need to wake up and focus on fixing Bitcoin's shortcomings and improving upon it, or it will not be "king" forever like most take for granted via the "too big to fail" mantra.

Although I still try to change people's minds from time to time, it can get very tiresome to have to repeat yourself over and over to each person that has been brainwashed by the group-think that goes on over there. Bitshares' DACs features and improvements speak for themselves compared to Bitcoin, there is no need for brainwashing. I like how in one of the clips Dan mentions that Bitcoin needs to adapt or you just need to sell Bitcoin and move on- It's very true. I think Bitcoin will still be the coin to beat in a year or two due to its infrastructure and network effect, but if it continues down the same path it is certainly doomed to fail, it is a matter of when not if.

Also, Dan is probably one of the few people that can get away with such a speech at a Bitcoin conference with his calm demeanor and thoughtful statements. :)

Not a single rotten tomato was thrown from the audience.
Instead, the whole team was swarmed with well-wishers who skipped lunch to ask more questions.

[Stan]

Meanwhile, the BitSharesTalk Support, Rapid Response, and Vegas Reconnaissance Team was there in force.
We couldn't fit them all in one picture, but it took two whole rows this long when they all got there for the start of Dan's speech.

Since they were all inexplicably willing to appear in public with us I'm including this photo.  We'll leave it to them to identify themselves, or not.  You already know most of them well from their prolific contributions.

Most conferences are *not* recorded, here's the portable device we use to both capture interviews and to plug directly into the speaker amplication system via XLR to capture the *best* audio possible of conference talks

It's not a bootleg! It's just shitty quality. As far as I know there was no restrictions about recording. Or maybe they saw I was using a cellphone and didn't care.

:D I meant it in jest. It was great you even took the time.

I know man :) . Post came off more serious than expected. See, if you had made it to Vegas you would know my personality. Anyway, the only reason I didn't post it is because toast mentioned that Greg used a good quality camera/mic and they are merging slides. Like Stan said I also think no one is going to come back to watch/hear the high quality version if they feel they got the gist from mine.

I tend to agree with Stan and do not wish to sabotage the efforts of Brian et al.

I figured that's how you meant it but I didn't want to have a tonyk (j/k I think you great). My wife had to listen to me whine for days because I wasn't able to go. I think I am wearing her down for the next event......just need a bump up in btsx price so I can say "Honey but I have to go to protect our investment"  Besides you probably just sat around drank good beer, ate well and talked about that nerdy crypto stuff :'(

[Riverhead]

Why don't you post it temporary J, till the official/high quality comes out? Obviously a lot of people are interested to hear it.

I tried to listen to it but the audio was so bad that I just turned it off and decided to wait for hte good version.

We definitely should not publish the low quality version. :D

I'll mark it private in a bit. I wish it came out better but eh it didn't lol. Phone had some feature turned on to focus the Mic where the camera was pointing. Doesn't work for shit.

Hey,

Agreed, if you've got a video on youtube you should post it unless I3 has said they don't want unofficial versions out.

I don't think any of us care about the quality much, we just want to hear it. :)

Has Greg still not uploaded his video yet ? ::)

Seriously? I am glad I listened to riverheads bootleg I never would have imagined it would take this long

Can you PM me his bootleg too ? I asked for it but maybe he's not reading his messages or something...

Sorry trader, I got a lot of PM's and I thought I replied to them all. I'll send it now.

Can you pm me the link as well pls? Would love to check it out

I have the direct feed audio of Daniels talk but it's not processed yet and is a ways back in my content backlog, will be out on LTB in a week or two.

Strike that, just gave it a brief listen and it is NOT direct feed, audio is from the crowd although it's not terrible.

We had a microphone on-podium if you'd rather use that...

It depends on how good the microphone is (our mic in the audience is a good one) but If you want to email me a dropbox link I'd happily give it a listen, my priority is best-quality possible.

I have it up on YouTube but the audio came out really poor. It's understandable but not what I was hoping for. PM me for the link or wait for the much higher quality version from Greg. I don't mind sharing it but the public link should be Greg's.

I only ask that you don't post it publicly so that the only video in public circulation is Greg's.

[emailtooaj]

I have the speech and the Q&A recorded. It's 3.2GB so it'll take a while to get it up on YouTube. I'll update this post with a link when it's ready. It was great!

Greg was recording with a nice camera.
We should wait until someone can superimpose the plans imo

Especially if they have access to the originals. The lighting was horrible for seeing the screens.

I only had my cell phone to shoot it. I think others were recording with better hardware. It's 720p but probably not the best quality.

Hell yeah!

Thank you so much!
