This sounds like an excellent idea if you can get good number of countries represented. Could you clarify a couple things?

Is that €70 per night or for the whole weekend (and with 2 breakfasts)?
How many participants can attend?
How many are signed up already?

I'll gladly clarify things:

The 70 Euro mainly include a bed in a shared room for two nights, two breakfasts and a part of the conference room rent. We've tried to keep it as cheap as possible to allow everyone to attend.
The conference room fits 40, maybe more. We currently only booked 30 beds but could surely extend that.
Signing up involves transferring money, possibly internationally, and banks are ridiculously slow at executing these transfers. So only one person has successfully signed up by now. Maybe some bitcoin transfers have reached John already, I don't know. Yesterday evening there were 35 people who are definitely interested and 4-10 maybes.
