The new link I've enclosed above here is confirmed to be the LIVE LINK ON YOUTUBE that will work for this big BTC fork/UASF teaching/discussion/meeting tonight in Montreal. It starts at 6:30 pm EST (so about 4 hrs now, from the time I posted this blog) - 1st hour is very technical, the 2nd hour starting at 7:30 EST - is less technical.
They had technical issues, so now Tone Vays has come to the rescue using his channel and tech: That link above works.
All info below, listed in great detail:
All info in this post I blogged on the other day, to remind people about this big event tonite to learn from some of the best people in the space. I am resharing this and now giving the confirmed livestream link today, because this is crucial for all of us in the crypto space. This is a stellar learning opportunity tonight!
I also know Tone Vays is driving there as I type this, because we were in touch via email and twitter and discussed meeting part way and driving together.
I am not saying he will be speaking but I imagine he will be in the front row LOL. He had to be somewhere near there the next day, so when I told him about this event, it helped him plan his week and get this event in also.
All Event Details Here / From My Last Post This Week:
Some very big names in the Bitcoin space are gathering this Thursday in Montreal, Quebec to go over all the technical and other concerns for the August 1st BTC forking.
All the info you need in brief is here in this post.
The most technical half of the meeting is first. The more general / least technical part immediately follows it.
For those not sure how far Montreal is in general from them on the East Coast or who have friends near here, in some of the Eastern US states or Eastern Canada - send them this blog post if they might be interested.
Montreal is a 4-8 hour drive from:

THIS IS A TECHNICALLY ADVANCED EXPERT MEETUP SPECIFICALLY ABOUT BITCOIN PROTOCOL UPGRADES. There will be no discussion of any other blockchain technology.
BITCOIN EMBASSY + BLOCKCHAIN MTL JOINT MEETUP
18h30-19h30: Bitcoin Embassy meetup hosted by Francis Pouliot
19h30-20h00: Blockchain Montreal meetup hosted by Vincent Gauthier, Arthur Prats and Selim Bouzid.
18:30 - Bitcoin is forking on August 1st: understand and prepare! [UASF-BIP148]
This meetup is for:
-- Casual and expert Bitcoin users
-- Interested in Bitcoin tech and game theory
-- Bitcoin businesses and startups
This event will be strictly moderated.
It starts at 18h30 sharp. DO NOT BE LATE!
Starting at 19h30, the meetup is handed over to BlockchainMTL. Attendees wishing to avoid expert/advanced subject matters are invited to arrive at this time.
Bitcoin is at a crossroads.
There is a real possibility that the Bitcoin blockchain will be split into two separate chains, for an undetermined amount of time, starting on August 1st 2017.
In addition, there are several Bitcoin upgrade proposals that, in different scenarios, will cause a split in the Bitcoin blockchain if they are implemented by participants in the network.
A split in the Bitcoin blockchain can result, for a certain period of time, in the existence of two bitcoin chains, thus two different but bitcoin currencies (not unlike the difference between ETH and ETC).
If you do not properly understand and prepare, and continue to transact as usual, you are at risk of losing bitcoins.
In addition, if there is a chain split, Bitcoin users will have bitcoins on both chains, and there are opportunities for the risk-seeking well-prepared Bitcoin users to profit.
It is essential that Bitcoin users undersdand and prepare, and I'm here to help!
LECTURE AND WORKSHOP BY FRANCIS POULIOT
Francis Pouliot, director of the Bitcoin Embassy and CEO of Satoshi Portal, has been researching the Bitcoin development process and protocol upgrade (scaling) debate. He will be sharing his very niche experience and knowledge. This is a unique opportunity to ask an expert about this critical yet obscure topic.

18:30 - Bitcoin is forking on August 1st: understand and prepare! [UASF-BIP148]
This meetup is for:
-- Casual and expert Bitcoin users
-- Interested in Bitcoin tech and game theory
-- Bitcoin businesses and startups
This event will be strictly moderated.
It starts at 18h30 sharp. DO NOT BE LATE!
Starting at 19h30, the meetup is handed over to BlockchainMTL. Attendees wishing to avoid expert/advanced subject matters are invited to arrive at this time.
Bitcoin is at a crossroads.
There is a real possibility that the Bitcoin blockchain will be split into two separate chains, for an undetermined amount of time, starting on August 1st 2017.
In addition, there are several Bitcoin upgrade proposals that, in different scenarios, will cause a split in the Bitcoin blockchain if they are implemented by participants in the network.
A split in the Bitcoin blockchain can result, for a certain period of time, in the existence of two bitcoin chains, thus two different but bitcoin currencies (not unlike the difference between ETH and ETC).
If you do not properly understand and prepare, and continue to transact as usual, you are at risk of losing bitcoins.
In addition, if there is a chain split, Bitcoin users will have bitcoins on both chains, and there are opportunities for the risk-seeking well-prepared Bitcoin users to profit.
It is essential that Bitcoin users undersdand and prepare, and I'm here to help!
LECTURE AND WORKSHOP BY FRANCIS POULIOT
Francis Pouliot, director of the Bitcoin Embassy and CEO of Satoshi Portal, has been researching the Bitcoin development process and protocol upgrade (scaling) debate. He will be sharing his very niche experience and knowledge. This is a unique opportunity to ask an expert about this critical yet obscure topic.
