The past two years of bitcoin conferences I have been at have been bear market conferences.
And funnily, the energy was still really high at all of them. Pacific Bitcoin in 2022 occurred literally during the FTX dump to $16k and we were having an amazing time regardless.
Bitcoin Atlantis in Madeira has been the closest thing to a conference in a bull market for a while.
My single favorite thing at conferences is meeting people from so many countries. Within one example hour I met a woman from Saudi Arabia, a whole group from Bulgaria, someone from Bolivia, someone from Columbia, someone from Spain, and someone from South Africa. A woman from Malaysia really stuck out too and it was a great conversation.
There is no other asset that brings out so much hope and unity from people with such different backgrounds and experiences.
