As I was on the flight home from a recent Bitcoin conference, there was a middle-aged man sitting next to me reading and taking notes on the score of Wagner's opera Siegfried (seriously). I was very intrigued, so I struck up a conversation with him. It turns out he is an orchestra conductor who was on his way to prepare an orchestra for a September performance of Siegfried. I told him about my involvement with Bitcoin, and to my surprise, he already knew a decent amount about it, although he does not own any yet. I told him that I hope soon I will be able to buy my orchestra/opera tickets with Bitcoin.
