     Bitcoin Home News, November 25 newsbtc news: The Latin American Bitcoin Conference will be held in Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, from December 4th to 5th. The organizer of this conference is LaBITconf , a leading company in Bitcoin remittances, electronic payments and Bitcoin mining .

    Mexico is often hailed as a natural touchstone for e-commerce and financial innovation. In 2014, market research firm eMarketer predicted : "From 2014 to 2018, smartphone users in Mexico will grow from 24.0% of the total population to 40.0% . However, only one in four people in Brazil and Argentina use a smartphone, and this figure drops to one in five in Chile and Peru. In the United States, smartphone penetration has exceeded 65%. At the end of 2015, there were 65 million Internet users in Mexico, and by 2018, this number is expected to exceed 80 million, of which 21.1 million will become loyal users of online shopping."

    There is a huge remittance market between Mexico and the United States. According to statistics from the World Bank, the total remittances to Mexico in 2013 were US$20 billion, accounting for one-third of the total remittances in Latin America. This figure will continue to grow in the next few years.

    Therefore, thanks to Mexico's huge market potential, Mexico City is obviously the best place to hold this Latin American Bitcoin Conference.

    The conference will invite many celebrities in the Bitcoin circle. Guests who have confirmed their attendance include: Bitcoin chief scientist Gavin Andresen , Bitcoin entrepreneur Erik Vooorhees , and Marco A. Santori, a well-known New York lawyer who is also the chief legal advisor to many Bitcoin companies.

AXA, the world's largest insurance company, will also send Agustín Aramburu Sierra, director of the group's e-commerce department, to attend the conference. AXA has been ranked the world's number one insurance brand for seven consecutive years.

According to relevant files, AXA's important strategic partners include HSBC, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and Bank Mandiri of Indonesia. It is expected that by the end of this year, BNP Paribas will also reach a strategic partnership with AXA Group.
