Meetup with Enzo Haussecker from DFINITY

For almost a decade, a technology has been in development that is set to define a new digital era. The global “Internet Computer” is a largely unforeseen development emerging from the field of secure distributed computation. This technological phenomenon has the ability to free us from reliance on tech giants such as Facebook, Paypal, and Amazon Web Services.

This evening we will begin with a quick overview of DFINITY. Then, closely examine some unsolved problems in blockchain network design and novel solutions developed to power DFINITY.

Enzo Haussecker is a Senior Engineer at DFINITY Research USA. Enzo began his career as a quantitative developer, but quickly got into distributed systems because of a need to collect and process more financial data. The intersection of finance and distributed systems led him to Bitcoin and the blockchain industry, where he co-developed one of the first exchanges for cryptocurrency derivatives.

This evening is very kindly being hosted by Circle:

Circle is global crypto finance company on a mission to make it possible for anyone, anywhere to help change the global economy.

Circle was founded in 2013 because we believed money should work like the internet — open, secure, free, everywhere. Today, we offer four products. Circle Invest makes it easy to invest in crypto even if you’ve never invested in crypto. With Circle Pay you can send money like a text — across the table or the ocean. Our OTC crypto desk Circle Trade moves over $2B each month. And our addition of Poloniex welcomes one of the world’s largest crypto exchanges.

Unlike existing systems that are closed and proprietary, we use open standards and protocols to build our products.

More of us with more access means a more inclusive global economy.

That doesn’t just change money. It changes everything.

Circle. The new shape of money.
