The first BlockDown remote crypto conference will be held on April 16-17

The crypto community will join the inaugural BlockDown remote crypto conference online this spring and hear from visionary blockchain entrepreneurs and business leaders, including Akon Global Music Artist, Co-Founder and Chairman of Akoin, Roger Ver, Executive Chairman of Bitcoin.com, and Bitcoin educator Jimmy Song.

With multiple crypto conferences around the world being postponed or delayed due to concerns about the spread of the coronavirus, BlockDown offers the crypto community an opportunity to network, engage, and learn without leaving home.

The limited-capacity event, which will be organized by crypto PR agency EAK Digital, will feature live-streamed keynote addresses, exclusive 3D avatar fireside chats and roundtables, live illustrations, a virtual booth area, and a dedicated online space for people to network and share business ideas.

Each keynote will be followed by a professionally moderated Q&A session on a dedicated online chat channel, along with a US AMA. Erhan Korhaliller, founder of EAK Digital, the organiser of BlockDown, said the event aims to allow guests to network and connect, just as they would at an offline event. "Block Down 2020 is a great opportunity for everyone in the industry to come together during these difficult times and enjoy the networking and interaction benefits of a face-to-face conference," he said. "It was very important to us to make the event affordable and accessible to everyone, and we look forward to hosting a global audience."

BlockDown 2020 will be held on April 16-17 and will last for two days.
