The Conference.NFT took you on a deep online dive into the world of NFTs on June 17 where everyone could enjoy hours of unique presentations, hot panel discussions, and encouraging debates. Because of the global pandemic, we had to hold the conference online. But as we are already into the digital remote mode, what can be more safe and comfortable, huh?

Firstly, we would like to thank our incredible speakers for making this event so fantastic. Representatives of the most progressive and industry-leading companies on the market: The Sandbox, Consensys, Waves, Netflix, Niftygateway, and other well-known companies shared their outstanding presentations, joined inspired discussion panels, and answered your curious questions.

Moreover, The Conference.NFT wouldn’t have been even imaginable without sponsors: remarkable support provided by NFTmall and Oraichain made sure that the conference succeeded even in such trying times. Our team is so thankful to them for making everything happen.

Our previous events: how we did it!

The third instance of The Conference.Exchanges that took place on March, 5 were quite a bit different from our previous events in Singapore and Amsterdam. Due to a global pandemic, we had to hold the conference online. However, the quality of discussions and productiveness was not diminished.

Also, all of this wouldn’t be possible without sponsors: support provided by Bitstamp, Nash, Crypto.com Acria.Network and Itez ensured that The Conference.Exchanges took place regardless of the pandemic. Our team is immensely grateful for that.
