Sure. I would nevertheless bet a few satoshis that at least some of the attendees bought their tickets because they thought it would be about "coins" by mistake

- Robotbeat 9y agoHuge pet peeve is "crypto" being used to speak of cryptocurrency exclusively instead of the more general cryptography (or even referring to something hidden, i.e. cryptozoology). Yes, yes, descriptive vs prescriptive, but I think it's dumb to destroy a perfectly good prefix just due to the fact that cryptocurrency is currently at the peak of the hype cycle.
- red_admiral 9y agoThere was a session on blockchains and a few well-placed jokes about them in other sessions. It's not the cryptographers who are riding the hype wave at the moment.
