The year 2017 was a booming year for blockchain, cryptocurrencies and ICOs. In 2018 the industry had major problems and concerns about the new disruptive technology – similar to the development of the dot-com bubble 20 years ago.

But new approaches to further implement the blockchain technology arise: 

• STOs are the new, mature version of ICOs and many expect STOs to disrupt entrepreneurial and corporate finance.
• Many countries are bringing new regulations to benefit from blockchain technology.
• Big companies are filing for blockchain patents, mass adoption is just a matter of time.

Having those developments in mind, the Crypto Assets Conference 2020 brings technology experts, though-leaders, industry innovators, crypto investors and blockchain entrepreneurs together to discuss the future of blockchain and its implications on the world. As part of the German Blockchain Week we are happy to invite you to many exclusive side events taking place in Frankfurt and Darmstadt accompanying the conference.

We are looking forward to meeting you to join our discussion!

Together, we reestablished an annual gathering place for Bitcoin and learned that if this technology is going to reach its full potential, it’s going to take the entire community working together.

We are at the precipice of yet another cycle of hype and growth. The stakes will be raised, the scrutiny will be greater and the world will be watching. There has never been a more important time to thoughtfully evaluate Bitcoin and what it means to the world. So let’s grow it the right way, and let’s grow it together.

IMN is delighted to announce the next installment of Synchronize will return to New York City on March 30, 2020 with a critical update on the applications of blockchain, distributed ledger technology (DLT), smart contracts and tokenization in financial services.

With hype now in the rearview mirror, some of the most compelling and potentially disruptive applications of these technologies have emerged. Previously competitive public and private chains such as Hyperledger Fabric and R3’s Corda have now been integrated with the likes of Digital Asset’s DAML smart contract language; the Australian Securities Exchange's (ASX) ground-up DLT clearing system is expected to be fully operational by early 2021; and major institutions such as PNC Bank are now processing cross border payments on Ripple’s DLT network, paving the way for instant invoice processing and a vastly improved accounts receivable operation.

Recent analysis from ABI Research estimates that such projects will result in blockchain-enabled revenues surpassing $10 billion by 2023*, while Gartner forecasts the total business value of blockchain to exceed $3.1 trillion by 2030**.

Synchronize 2020 will bring together financial services executives, technologists and innovators who are serious about implementing these technologies and positioning their businesses for the next generation of growth. Delegates of Synchronize will hear from the DLT pioneers in financial services who are leading these game changing projects, network with likeminded peers, and identify what opportunities exist to realize the significant efficiency gains in their own business.

We look forward to seeing you this March in New York!
