Bitcoin, the world’s latest and greatest virtual and decentralized currency, has caught the online gambling industry’s eye and the first Bitcoin London conference takes place July 2nd in Canary Wharf.
Scheduled speaker Erik Voohrees, founder of SatoshiDice.com, is making the trip to London from Panama City to participate: “This London conference will be an excellent followup to the momentum at the large recent Bitcoin conference in San Jose. This one should be a little more focused on B2B and professional networking, whereas the first was more of an enthusiast convention. I’m very excited to learn more about the various projects being built around the world, especially Europe and Asia. And of course, when you get a bunch of crypto-industrialists together, it’s always a good time”.
