Crypto Assets Conference 2019: The conference on Blockchain and Finance
For the last two years, the topics blockchain, crypto assets and Initial Coin Offerings [ICOs] have been booming. The two topics became the top discussion as it was reported on various media channels on a daily basis. As on outcome of this, crypto assets and distributed ledger technology are no longer an unknown phenomenon.
In 2018 Bitcoin crashed – similar to the development of the dotcom bubble 20 years ago. Nonetheless, companies have more knowledge than ever, are critical about it, are increasingly investing more resources and developing new strategies and business models. In particular, security tokens will in 2019 provide new incentives for discussion, especially as they have the potential to completely revolutionize stocks and securities in particular and the financial industry in general.
To support this development, share knowledge and debate progress, the Frankfurt School Blockchain Center, together with KI decentralized and financial.com, are hosting the Crypto Assets Conference.
Prof. Dr. Philipp Sandner, Head of the Frankfurt School Blockchain Center, commented on the aim of the event: “Our conference at the end of February 2019 will bring together leading experts from the fields of blockchain, crypto assets and finance not only from Germany, but also from international companies and institutions. In addition, for example the European Central Bank, the Bafin, important protagonists from corporations and start-ups will be among the 50+ speakers we could win.”
The Crypto Assets Conference deals with the following topics, among others: How are crypto assets regulated and taxed? What developments are there in Germany and Europe? Which business models are behind the dozens of blockchain start-ups? What effects will Security Tokens (STO) have on traditional IPOs? How will Initial Coin Offerings [ICOs] evolve?
