If you have ideas on how to make it a more balanced mix, I'm all ears.

Who specifically should be invited who is not?

Right now, I think the mix is pretty representative of the industry: dominate by Bitcoin and Bitcoin companies and devs, but with a healthy number of alt coins or non Bitcoin blockchain folks and Ethereum etc and then some investors and service providers.


If you look at its evolution, it should be clear the guest list isn't pushing some agenda -- year one there were very few blockchain people other than Bitcoin so we had 90% Bitcoin and then Vitalik and a couple others.    Year 2 it was more of a mix, this year it's almost 50/50 pure Bitcoin / other blockchain projects.   

A lot of other blockchain projects have been isolated from bitcoin, I think that it's ideal to get everyone talking -- weaker chains can see the benefits of the Bitcoin chain and Bitcoin can benefit from learning more about what the massive companies want to do.
