This event promises to empower you to “discover and understand exploding evolution of blockchain technologies, like smart contracts, new ways to fund ventures, define value, coordinate business processes, define identities, prevent fraud, and more.”
Speakers at the event include Dionna Bailey (Nexus Earth), Dhruv Bansal (Unchained Capital), Anthem Hayek Blanchard (AnthemGold.com), Bruce Fenton (Atlantic Financial), Elisabeth Grothe-Møller (CommonCollection.com), David Johnston (Factom, Inc), Joe Kelly (Unchained Capital), Tiana Laurence (“Blockchain for Dummies”), Charles Silver (RealAge), Darsh Singh (Hazoor Partners), Julie Smith (Medici Ventures), Jared Tate (DigiByte), Melanie Swan (“Blockchain: Blueprint for the New Economy”) and many many more.
Tickets for the Texas Bitcoin Conference are still available $400 per person.
