Recognized as the most important Bitcoin event in the world, attendees will mingle among some of the most important figures in the industry, including key public advocates, politicians, celebrities and more. Notable names will include Adam Back, co-founder and CEO of Blockstream; Peter McCormack, journalist and founder of What Bitcoin Did podcasts; and Stella Assange, wife of activist and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Among the topics to be explored are Central Bank Digital Currencies (CDBC), Bitcoin as an inflation hedge, the Lightning Network and the integration of Bitcoin into today’s payment networks.
