Hi all,

For those who missed it, the deadline for submissions has been extended to Sept 9th so be sure to submit before then! We will be doing rolling acceptance this time around to try to get most responses out before the 23rd.

Because a few folks seemed to have some confusion, the definition of "scaling" here is pretty broad - while we definitely will have a lot of talks on the usual tx-volume-throughput things, the topics of interest also include things like fungibility. The full list from the site (for inspiration purposes, this is by no means exhaustive) is:

Improving Bitcoin throughput Layer 2 ideas (i.e. payment channels, etc.) Security and privacy Incentives and fee structures Testing, simulation, and modeling Network resilience and latency Fungibility Anti-spam measures Block size proposals Mining concerns

Thanks, Matt
