After a bit of drama this past week there was an emergency meeting held to determine the future of Monerokon. After some debate, a vote was held and the results are as follows: communuty member ceetee will be the new holder of Monero socials, with community member stnby as a backup, and Monerokon 2027 will be managed by Orangefren.
I'm pretty happy with these results. I didn't attend Monerokon this year but I heard the organization was great considering the time constraints. Also, they were able to get all of the presentations uploaded on youtube very quickly... Past presentations took months to get released. My only complaint is that some of the presentations were weak this year (e.g. Liberland, Super testnet) but with more time for next year I think this will be improved. I really hope I can attend next year. What do you guys think?
Orangefren will be running Monerokon 2027!

@GamingResearchLab I'm missing some context here, is Orangefren the one playing ball with the govt.?
@ancap_objectivist
idk, am missing context on alot of the monerokon related things
but regarding the broader monero community ecosystem, no, too many of them are
I'm caught up on the Shithub issue(s) now.
This really is just "profit == bad" from most detractors. If MoneroKon is public domain (as it rightly should be, you cannot own ideas), then the transparency & "community"-focused crowd can just make their own instead of hating on Orangefren for doing the work and getting (rightly) paid for it.
@GamingResearchLab I agree with your dissent on LLCs, but I think we arrive at it from different places:
I disagree on principle that the State may not grant legal personhood, it has no power to do so under natural law.
If I understand your position correctly, you believe that registering an LLC puts a larger target on your back because you put yourself on the govt. radar?

nah, that's just cringe the whole larping cryptobros that registering companies with social security numbers, bank accounts and paying those taxes or whatever pretty much
maybe pseudonymous LLCs can be a thing, i have no clue nor any interest in that regardless lol
@GamingResearchLab that pic is literally commie propaganda
paying taxes -> boo
kill the productive class (and pay taxes to us) -> yay
