Mobilizing Smart Contracts | Xamarin.Forms++ with Forms9Patch Gone Open Source

Two awesome sessions for our June Meetup!

Mobilizing Smart Contracts with Ethereum and Xamarin - Ben Ishiyama-Levy

Blockchain and Smart Contract technologies are fostering a transformation that enables businesses to become leaner, provides access to a new generation of services to consumers while providing an unequaled security assurance.

In 2018, nearly 80% of internet usage will be mobile, and native applications will likely drive Blockchain powered platforms on iOS, Android, Windows Universal Platform and MacOS and the cost of delivering for each platform are substantial.

Building a Blockchain enabled cross-platform application with Xamarin allows businesses to build intuitive and compelling native apps in half the time it would take to develop on each platform independently, maximizing long-term ROI on mobile applications.
