Hey guys, does anybody have any news from Montreal? Did anything interesting happen or been decided?
Please share this info here if you have any. I have been very busy this weekend so I couldn't watch the live broadcast or listen to it on the YouTube. I am very interested by this and can't find anything.
Thanks!
Nothing was decided but it was a fantastic opportunity for the industry, developers and miners to share concerns and ideas about Bitcoin moving forward.
Coindesk has a good article on the first day here:

Overall it was a great experience and I had a really good time.
