The Bear Arms N' Bitcoin conference is the premier event and resource for fans of DIY and 3D-printed guns, Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, privacy tech and all the other freedom technologies that one needs to understand in order to survive and thrive in our modern political climate.
The third annual Bear Arms N' Bitcoin conference (BANB2022) takes place in sunny Miami, Florida on April 9 to 10, 2022. Bitcoin Magazine will return as a media partner.
BANB2022 offers two days of presentations and workshops by experts in various exciting fields — and this year's lineup offers more than ever!
Freedom Technology Awards
This year's event will also mark the launch of the Bear Arms N' Bitcoin Freedom Technology Awards in memory of the late JStark1809.
The “JStarkies” will recognize the top individuals, projects, hardware and organizations advancing the cause of freedom. We will create a form where you can suggest award categories and give nominations. A panel of experienced judges will decide the winners.
Peter McCormack and Jessica Solce will present the awards.

Event Privacy And Security
You're encouraged to pay for your ticket with BTC or XMR and use a throwaway email address specifically for this event. You do not have to provide any government-issued identification to attend, and guests will be checked-in by email address. There will not be a list of guest names or pseudonyms, and no one will ask you for ID.
Code Of Conduct
This year, BANB has implemented a code of conduct for the benefit of all attendees. It reads:
“Everyone is welcome at our Bear N’ Bitcoin freedom tech conference — the left, the right, centrists, white, black, straight, gay, cops, robbers and normies. You just have to tolerate others’ opinions (even ones you find objectionable) and treat individuals with respect.
“The conference is non-political, (other than our support of the first and second amendments). It is an educational event that seeks to expand knowledge and build practical skills.
“Our focus is on highlighting accomplishments and what works and avoiding criticisms and arguments. Attendees at the conference are heterogeneous. What unites us is our love for freedom, privacy and autonomy. Crypto tribalism is dumb and counterproductive. Opposition to any freedom technology is statist. If you have any recommendations, comments, complaints or jokes, feel free to contact us.”
