I'm not trying to be a jerk... I just want to get to the heart of the issue.

If Bitcoiners and Bitcoin companies persistently don't want to spend much (if any) of their bitcoin to help pay for large conferences--but crypto companies generally do--maybe there is a lesson to learned.

What is the value-for-value proposition?

I think that Bitcoiners and Bitcoin companies are probably better served by supporting new and improved Bitcoin infrastructure... as a genuine (and better) alternative to the existing fiat-based monetary and financial system.

Meanwhile, since proof of stake (PoS) crypto is simply an extension of the existing PoS fiat system, it is likely best served by marketing to the largest players, politicians, and honeypots within the existing fiat system.

Or, alternatively, bitcoiners need to find/build cheaper, more efficient versions of conferences/meetups.

I am having a hard time trying to justify most of any conference’s existence outside of two goals:

1. Advertising

2. Networking (see 1)

And I think most bitcoiners don’t see a lot of value in paying to experience this when so much of it already happens on the internet for effectively free. Just a much higher rate of return.
