Mayor Francis Suarez ‘the bitcoin mayor’ on Friday, broke records as the first mayor to host a star-studded bitcoin conference. The pre-event announcement which shattered the city’s record of social media views (7 million in less than 24 hours) had every well-known bitcoin maverick in attendance from Michael Saylor to Jack Dorsey, the Winklevoss brothers, and even Floyd Mayweather Jr.
The conference which hosted over 1000 companies and 150 speakers, saw over 50,000 home participants, including 19,000 ‘whales’ in attendance judging by the number of passes sold. The New York Times reports the event as an odd mixture of business and pleasure, thousands of millionaires and hundreds of liquor, and a super-sized crowd that seemed to put a full-stop to the word ‘Coronavirus’.
The conference memory verse, you ask? ‘Buy The Dip’ it was.
The Bitcoin Struggle in AfricaWhile Cameron Winklevoss (who wore a t-shirt mocking the federal reserve), Saylor, Drew Austin, and a lot of other speakers took turns to eulogize Bitcoin as an unstoppable digital religion, the CEO of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, lamented the sufferings of citizens in West African countries like Nigeria and Ghana, at the hands of their corrupt government destroying financial leverage and clamping down on Bitcoin which was fast becoming an escape from policy-induced poverty.
One of the biggest highlights from the conference was a video clip of Nayib Bukele, the El-Salvador president who recently announced Bitcoin as a legal tender – making it the first country in world history to do so.
