The continuing discussion about the banking crisis in Second Life
This afternoon there was a special session of Metanomics held to discuss the radical shift in policy that Linden Lab has taken to regulate Second Life Banks. Participating in the discussion were IntLibber Brautigan, head of Ancapistan Capital Exchange (ACE) and Brautigan & Tuck Holdings (BNT), Travis Ristow, head of BCX Bank, Benjamin Noble of Virtually Blind, Jillian Barth of Saxo Bank.
The main room filled up completely and there were seven alternative sites. The discussion was also broadcast on SLCN.TV. The amount of interest was so great that the bandwidth was overwhelmed and most people could not hear the feed. Numerous people called for the event to be rescheduled. It was noted that a full clear archive would be available after the broadcast. However, this did not address the issues of audience participation.
Numerous people are working on arranging sessions to discuss the broadcast once a clean version is available on the SLCN site. Details about the session will be posted as soon as the times and locations are determined.
