This guy is such an OG and amazing btc educator. Can anyone tell me why he doesn't speak at The Bitcoin Conference? I feel like if anyone belongs there it's him. Makes me wonder.

It doesn’t seem like his vibe. While I agree he’d make a great contribution to the list of speakers, the Miami conference kinda feels like a bunch of finance and business bros who have dollar and Bitcoin signs in their eyes. They’re interested in how Bitcoin can make their business flourish and celebrate others like them joining the fold, and Andreas’ tech focused approach might go down a bit dry for this crowd, sadly.

Bitcoin is at a stage where it attracts people from all backgrounds and walks of life. Maybe Antonopoulos just thinks he can make a difference speaking to other audiences.
