Scheduled for May 17 and taking place in Czech's capital, Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference Prague will gather a number of experts from different related fields to discuss current burning topics in the world of bitcoin and blockchain in general. The conference will feature many expert speakers and presenters, including representatives from IBM and European Parliament.
Focus on Regulation
Lately, cryptocurrency regulation has become one of the main topics discussed at local and global levels. For that reason, the Prague conference will focus on recent regulatory movements in Europe, featuring speeches from the likes of Dimitrios Psarrakis, the Capital Markets and FinTech Regulation Policy Advisor at European Parliament, and Guenther Dobrauz of PwC Legal Switzerland.
Psarrakis will share his inside knowledge about the position of the authorities when it comes to cryptocurrencies, discussing potential future regulation and talking about the current stance of the European Parliament, central banks, and more. Guenther Dobrauz's presentation will focus on the role of cryptocurrencies, real changes they can bring to the current banking system, and the likelihood of cryptos taking over the role of fiat currencies.
Blockchain Technology Application & Tokens
Apart from regulatory considerations, the Prague Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference will also focus on the application of blockchain technology moving forward. René Bostic from IBM Cloud will deliver a presentation explaining the latest research in this area and offering potential fields of application.
Sandris Murins of the German company Iconiq Lab will treat the guests with a presentation breaking down a detailed research of 200 different coins currently in the market and also touching upon the topic of AI tokenization. Stefano Virgilli of VOX ICO Consulting will deliver a presentation focused on cryptocurrency mining, explaining many relevant areas of the activity such as setting transaction costs, hash rate calculations, and more.
Alongside these and many other expert speakers, the Prague conference will also provide excellent networking opportunities bringing a lot of value to everyone in the attendance, giving guests a chance not just to learn something new but also forge fresh partnerships for the future.
