Interesting guest post by the Jincor team for Cryptocoin News who recently attended the WORLD BLOCKCHAIN FORUM in London
WORLD BLOCKCHAIN FORUM in London is one of the most important events when it comes to crypto currencies and the impact that the blockchain has over the entire world. What made this event great was the fact that it focused on presenting some of the most important speakers in the industry. They did a very good job when it came to outlining ideas and showing how all of these can transform the industry. The team of Jincor, private blockchain for genuinely simple smart contracts and cryptocurrency transactions for any business, shared their own report from the event.

Some of the hottest topics were ICO’s regulations and governance in blockchain technologies and cryptocurrencies. Panel featuring Albert Isola MP, Gibraltar’s Minister for Commerce, and several Members of Parliament (including Eva Kaili and Antanas Guoga) discussed building the perfect framework for raising money and allocating those budgets for development of upcoming blockchain-based game changers and gave the industry a firm nod to the fact that everything is going to be alright.
There were a handful of amazing blockchain startups including SingularityNET, which goal is to provide an intelligent fabric for Artificial Intelligence algorithms to talk to each other — and in doing so, to provide the basis for the emergence of the world’s first true Artificial General Intelligence. Core node of the project – humanoid Sophia Hanson (she was presenting, along with her creator, mathematician Ben Goertzel, CEO of SingularityNET). Her intelligence will be plugged in the network for everyone’s benefit and will also receive input and wisdom from everyone’s algorithms.
Another amazing pitch (among all the rest) was performed by Jason King. Coming from the world of non-profits, Jason was one of the first in the industry to demonstrate the powerful effect bitcoin could have on charity. Currently, he is the Founder/Executive Director of Unsung.org, an app that aims to leverage the sharing economy to end hunger and food waste. And now he started a news project – Academy – optimized for online learning, SCORM compliant platform for those who wants to change the future of the blockchain and learn from the world’s foremost thinkers and doers in blockchain technology.
Another trend spotted, the amount of conventional investors and funds flocking to the industry. Those are trying to learn more about the industry and the new model of doing business they got used to. Which means more money in the industry – therefore more projects but of a higher level. And that is something that startups like Jincor are looking forward to.
It’s safe to say that the WORLD BLOCKCHAIN FORUM was and still is one of the crucial aspects of the industry and it really shines. This year was no different, and the addition of London into the mix did bring in front some great questions about the future of Bitcoin, what Ethereum brought to the table and how these currencies received a great boom this year. We can’t wait to see the discussions for next year!
