Think Bytemaster said that he wont go to Money2020.
He was just gonna have a 15 minutes speech, with a bunch of other cryptos like litecoin, doge etc.
So he did not feel it was worth the time going there just for that.

Right now I think he have other stuff to focus on...

He justifies himself quite convincingly : he always has the same audience at these conferences, the value of going to more and more of them diminishes, and his time is better spent elsewhere.

It was also discussed that those kind of events would be a great way for delegates to communicate, they could fund a team to atteend at such events.

yeah i listened to it. Still think it it is unfortunate as it is a very high quality event. It is true that there are always the same ppl on the bitcoin events but this event is not primarily about crypto/bitcoin. Partnerships outside the crypto scene (financial world, credit card blabla) could be initiated. Maybe toast or Agent86 (or Arhag?) can go? At the least it is a good practice.

Yea I agree. If needed we should do a fund raiser or something.
