Next month, Bitcoin Center NYC will host a music festival centered around the theme of, you guessed it, Bitcoin. The festival is supposed to be a celebration of "humanity" and "music," though it seems like a tagline fit for CoinYe. Oh well, missed opportunities. 

“This event is about freedom.  In music we have freedom of expression.  Bitcoin gives us that same freedom in finance, but I believe that’s only the beginning,” says Ross Mintzer, an organizer for the event. “I want people to have an amazing time at the festival and hope to create a platform for digital currency enthusiasts to bond.”

How's that for a cool currency?
