Bitcoin panel discussion at The O2!

Thanks to the guys at The Bitcoin Fighting Championship (http://www.bitcoinfc.com) CoinScrum will be sponsoring a FREE event exclusive to members of this group at the Indigo at The O2 on the 5th April.

Panel Debate: How Bitcoin Can Fight Back Against the Hackers and recent set backs!

Is Bitcoin just a mind virus infecting the intelligent people waiting to get rich on a capital appreciation? Or can Bitcoin honeybadger its way back by showing the same resilience of the past 5 years?

To thrash it out in an adversarial philosophical debate we have:

Chris Ellis, Bitcoin enthusiast, entrepreneur and chair of the debate. Regular guest on the Bitcoin Group (https://www.youtube.com/user/bitcoingroup) and co-founder Feathercoin Chris' super power is relentlessly seeking the truth by asking the hard questions everyone else is afraid of.

Ben Dyson, Founder of Positive Money. A Bitcoin skeptic he believes Bitcoin was just a prototype and is full of design flaws. This could be good!

The kick boxing event will be ticketed but we are pleased to announce we will be featuring exclusive £15 half price tickets for CoinScrum members purchased on the day.

This will give you entry to an fast paced 8 Man kickboxing tournament and the after party in the VIP lounge from around 10:30 until late.
