Join us for our 2nd Conversation Over Coffee event of 2021 focusing on the technology of blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
The global cryptocurrency market cap currently stands at around $1.37T with the king of crypto Bitcoin a new $1T asset. Blockchain, the technology upon which cryptocurrency was derived, is becoming more relevant to our every day lives, as it looks to transform the internet of things to an internet of value. Blockchain and cryptocurrency will bring about unprecedented change to the way in which we conduct business, from providing a cost saving global payment infrastructure, as well as providing secure data that can be trusted without the need for intermediaries.
