Korea Blockchain Week 2019, Asia’s largest blockchain weekly event to take place on September 27th to October 4th.

Nick Szabo, who invented the phrase and concept of “smart contracts” in 1994, along with Dr. Adam Back, who invented the “PoW” algorithm, applied in the cryptocurrency mining system, will present themselves for the first time in Korea at Asia’s largest blockchain event, Korea Blockchain Week (KBW2019).

Veterans of Blockchain Technology Industrialization Rise Together on Korean Stage

Korea Blockchain Week, which will be hosted by FactBlock, a blockchain accelerator, is their second annual blockchain week in Korea since 2018. During this week Nick Szabo and Adam Back will both deliver their keynote address during the main conference D.FINE.

Nick Szabo, the ‘father of cryptocurrency’ has rightfully earned this name for being one of the most important figures of the cryptocurrency industry. He first devised the concept of “smart contracts” in 1994, and in 1998, proposed the principles and structures of Bitcoin’s predecessor, and cryptocurrency known as “Bit gold”. By virtue of this information, there has been growing speculation that he may be Satoshi Nakamoto, the founder of Bitcoin, but he has repeatedly denied it.

Dr. Adam Back is CEO and co-founder of Blockstream, a company that seeks to further the development of bitcoin and blockchain technology. He is the inventor of the proof-of-work system Hashcash, initially used to limit email spam and denial-of-service attacks in 1997. Since then, the PoW system has been utilized as a mining algorithm for major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Nick Szabo and Adam Back, two veterans of blockchain technology industrialization, will present keynote addresses at D.FINE to pinpoint the present state of blockchain and cryptocurrency while talking to the audience on which opportunities the global companies and governments will seek in the blockchain sector in coming years.
