This year’s Consensus conference knows no bounds – literally, as we’ve taken up the challenge to go fully virtual while retaining the high caliber of engagement in the program and with communities that our attendees have come to know and expect over the years.
For Consensus: Distributed, the team here at CoinDesk has completely revamped our traditional conference format to bring our 13,000+ attendees five days of virtual programming, from high-level panels with policy and industry thought leaders to overviews of understanding crypto markets and in-depth Foundations workshops to connect with protocol communities like Ethereum, Hyperledger and Blockstream. That’s on top of the many opportunities to network in happy hours as well as private meetings.
If the 100+ sessions seem overwhelming, here are some simple tips to help you navigate the experience.
