Day 1 Recap From I Love Crypto
Meanwhile, outside of New York Hilton Midtown, a group of protesting bankers (maybe paid to do this or were hurt by buying at top in December-- people protest) gathered in opposition to cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin.
The long lines and the booths:
Boxmining
Tone Vays
All in all, Coindesk's Consensus 2018 was a great success. An estimated 8,500 people attended (triple that of last year) and raked in more than $17 million from ticket sales alone. Many celebrities from the cryptocurrency world were present including the likes of Charlie Lee, Dr. Whitfield Diffie, Tone Vays, Samson Mow, Arthur Hayes, Elizabeth Stark, Jimmy Song, Vinny Lingham, David Schwartz and Ned Scott.
Hopefully, for next year, we will see more of these individuals and the event being scaled to accommodate a larger crowd. Perhaps next year, this space would have already infiltrated the mind of the general public while its products and services being used in our everyday life.
