Crypto conferences are a psyop

They're mostly useless but you get FOMO because all your friends are there

Marginally useful for sales, but it's honestly just an excuse to party

you can't say "i gave up" without saying "i gay". so never give up. /artcoin simp. dunking farcaster mfers @ /4chain 

you forgot alcoholics and ketamine enjoyooors

only two types of ppl can get some kinda of value out of conferences:
- bd
- merch designers

Yeah I think I’m done with conferences for the most part unless I have to be Chief excitement officer.

They’re good to get FaceTime with investors in case you’re fundraising :)

It's useful to go if you're un-initiated to the culture but if you're already steeped in it, it's a circle jerk

IMO Devcon is an exception to this rule. I learned a lot and it ~permanently influenced my view of crypto/ethereum

Sometimes partying helps you be more useful in other areas.

^ there now you can justify the next one!

you probably don’t think about liquidity enough // it is what it is  // build value, not valuation

That's true - I went to Strata Hadoop once at the peak of big data

It was basically a raison d'etre for CIOs... I think they ended up losing their jobs a few years later or pivoted to AI thought leaders

would argue majority of conferences (any industry) are just an excuse to party

very few are designed to be pure sales engagements

This is why I liked FarCon – so little of the conference was about partying, the largest span of time was builders making cool things.

We need more conferences where builders build.

Good to make connections at least, say hello to that internet friend, and also to get awesome products in early stage, such as guaranteeing Gnosis pay limited edition card etc :)
