TECH, INNOVATION, AND DECENTRALIZED DEMOCRACY FOR THE UNBANKED

Wednesday, February 23rd 2022

7pm EST

Zoom

While identity is about distinguishing one person from another through attributes or affiliations, personhood is about giving all real people inalienable digital participation rights independent of identity including protection against erosion of their democratic rights through identity loss, theft, coercion, or fakery.

Thanks to blockchain-based digital identities, people are getting back control over their own data, and life, while the unbanked will find themselves financially included for the very first time through the power of blockchain and Smart Contracts.

THE METAVERSE EVENT

Wednesday, February 2nd 2022

7pm EST

Zoom

The metaverse is money and crypto is king – why you’ll be on a blockchain when you’re virtual-world hopping.

You may think the metaverse will be a bunch of interconnected virtual spaces – the world wide web but accessed through virtual reality. This is largely correct, but there is also a fundamental but slightly more cryptic side to the metaverse that will set it apart from today’s internet: the blockchain.
