Audience Highlight

Presentation: Blockchain and Sustainability + Q&A

Mini-Keynote: Blockchain IS Leading in Sustainability

Presented by David Orban, Managing Advisor at Beyond Enterprizes. Contrary to the mainstream narrative, that points the finger against Bitcoin and blockchain in general, the benefits of their adoption are vastly superior to their supposed environmental costs. The rich tapestry of applications when viewed in the lens of the proactionary principle, allows us to take into account not only the current but all the future benefits that they will represent, winning over the dead-end represented by the old infrastructure. The energy-resilience-financial independence equation is just one of the many complex but clear leaders in this profound transformation.
