The HBS Blockchain and Crypto Club is bringing thought leaders, founders, investors, and other prominent figures in blockchain and crypto to discuss the current state of the industry. Through the lens of mainstream adoption, we will explore topics such as:
Trends for VC investing in blockchain/crypto startups and cryptocurrencies
Building out the financial infrastructure stack (custody, liquidity, security, stablecoins, etc.) and other enterprise applications
Analysis of the current dApp and web3 ecosystem — what are the bottlenecks to widespread consumer adoption?
From the entrepreneur’s perspective, discussing how to build blockchain/crypto startups from inception to fundraising
Tech crypto vs. money crypto debate: where will value accrue for this nascent asset class?
What do current tech companies think of blockchain/crypto?
Can blockchains simultaneously be scalable, private, and secure? How will emerging tech like ZK-SNARKS/STARKS, FHE, and sharding play a role?
Live blockchain/crypto startup demos and interactive workshops

5. At the 2019 Bitcoin Expo, we will consider the challenges that face us today and how we can augment the development of this still-maturing ecosystem. We invite you to join us two months from now to have a conversation with stakeholders and developers with boots on the ground. We will talk about scalability, user adoption, UX challenges, regulatory concerns, token economics, vulnerabilities, and some of the most promising solutions currently under development.

7. Our 2019 program will explore: » The strengths and weaknesses of the underlying technology » Lessons learned from early blockchain projects, and how the most promising new initiatives are attempting to transform key global industries » How legal and regulatory environments around the world are adapting to the arrival of cryptocurrencies » The potential for blockchain to address pressing social challenges, from expanding access to financial services to tracking war crimes
