As the blockchain and crypto community moves online, it’s important that we learn to love virtual conferences and make the most of them.
I must admit, there is something special about a live conference. Some of the best proposals and projects that we’ve encountered have probably come from random interactions with people at conferences.

The buzz of a venue teeming with delegates eager to network, exclusive luncheons & after-parties, the silent appreciation that follows an inspirational keynote and tons of user-generated content as attendees snap pictures and share them on social media.

Conferences have proven invaluable to ICO’s/ IEO’s & STO’s worldwide. No matter what your business objective, conferences have had it covered. As the crypto world prepared for a promising 2020, something unprecedented happened - COVID-19. It crumpled the fabric of financial normalcy and it looks like the things aren’t going to change anytime soon.

But does it mean letting go of all the benefits of a physical conference?

I don’t think so.

Virtual events are an excellent opportunity for everyone in the industry to come together during these difficult times. Affordable and virtually accessible events are the need of the hour.

Let’s look at some virtual events that have proven very beneficial for the crypto community in 2020.

Blockdown 2020: a revolutionary virtual event that incorporated 3D & VR technology to mimic the feel of a real conference! It also featured some of the biggest names in the blockchain space, including the likes of Akon (AKOIN) Roger Ver, Changpeng Zhao, Alex Machinsky and many more industry heavyweights that need no introduction.

Another virtual event that raised the bar was Consensus Distributed. It featured over 300 speakers and over 5 days of content - all streamed live & free for a massive global audience. Again the benefits far outweighed the drawbacks, with a stellar line-up of experts including Vitalik Buterin, Adam Back, Joseph Lubin, Antony Lewis and more…

Virtual Blockchain Conference 2020 had a great message of advancing blockchain adoption and education globally by streaming live blockchain implementations in supply chain, banking and finance, government & healthcare industries.
