Bitcoins and blockchain are the new internet technology with the potential to transform the financial industry and disrupt markets around the world. Join entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders as we explore the market opportunities of blockchain technology, business, and investment and its immediate implications for FinTech.

Bitcoin is an experimental, decentralized digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network.
Bitcoin is one of the first successful implementations of a distributed crypto-currency. Bitcoin is designed around the idea of using cryptography to control the creation and transfer of money, rather than relying on central authorities.
