You're right. That was Gavin-bait. Well David Rabahy it's been six months and still no field report. Maybe next year. lol

Huh what? Field report from my talk at the CFR?

I barely remember it, there were probably 50 people in suits in the audience, nobody I recognized. The whole thing is on video, there were no secret meetings, I got there 10 minutes before my talk and left 10 minutes after (I had a bunch of interviews with DC-based journalists scheduled... and I think that was the trip I had lunch with Jim Harper and got a tour of Cato, although I might be mis-remembering).


Jesus man, how hard was that?

Why you could not have posted this a year ago or whatever when asked by (iirc) many people is beyond me.  And it is also perfectly appropriate for the community to have reasonable requests (chief among them a request for explicit transparency) and serious questions given the nature of both Bitcoin and the nature of the CFR.  Very little 'conspiracy theory' about the CFR is required to provoke such questions.  If you avoided these rather bland and reasonable requests just for shits-n-giggles, one would think (and hope) that you've got better things to do.
