Hi, folks– We got an offer from Ripple to have Stefan Thomas as a keynote speaker at the workshop. Here's a short bio: [[ Stefan Thomas is the CTO of Ripple. Stefan is also the producer of the popular “What is Bitcoin?” video and the founder of the largest website for novice Bitcoin users, WeUseCoins.com. He created a set of open-source Bitcoin libraries called BitcoinJS, which today are maintained and used by Bitcoin businesses of all sizes including BitPay, BlockChain.info, Bitaddress, Coinpunk and others. ]] And here's his Keynote at Bitcoin London 2013: https://youtu.be/hVOpXGlGwXs https://youtu.be/0lpeZ01H_Bk https://youtu.be/COUYwcDMqzk For a fair process, I'd like to know if anyone else has suggestions for speakers. We should also decide what the goal of any keynote speaker would be, what topics we would like to see addressed, when they would speak (perhaps an opening and closing keynote?), and how long the presenter would have. Thoughts? Thanks– Doug
