Back to the Bitmob - Bridging the Local Gap

***Saturday May 5th, 2018, 2:30pm Panel: Cryptocurrency and Blockchain within the community

Panelists:

Rion Gull: Rion has been the Dash Meetup organizer and working on starting up Dash Hive, with the focus of making Dash a standard currency here in Utah, specifically the Wasatch Front. His strategy for doing so is to get the community earning Dash through Dash Hive, after which Dash can support local merchants who accept Dash.

Darcy Van Orden: Darcy grew up in the Washington, DC area. She graduated from George Mason University where she studied Criminology in Fairfax, Virginia. Darcy relocated her family to Utah in 2006 has enjoyed expanding her horizons beyond corporate America by launching her own IT Consulting and Staffing company service clients in Washington DC and Utah. After attending Bitcoin meetups for years, she joined Ubitquity as their US Sales Consultant to grow their footprint in the United States. Ubitquity LLC offers the first blockchain-secured platform for real estate recordkeeping. We are changing the world, one block at a time!

Trent Larson: After a PhD in computer science, Trent worked on online systems but found that direct empowerment is more impactful and interesting. He now works with Bitcoin tech at Medici / Overstock, currently on a way to support land claims in third-world countries. He lives in Bountiful and is teaming up on community-building projects with passionate people.

Mediator: Michelle Robinson: Independant Event Producer and Consultant, Michelle has been in the space since late summer of 2017. Although she is relatively new, her curiousity grows while she pushes to connect others within tech and blockchain companies. Now fully submerged in the space, she encourages others to educate themselves in this rapidly growing technolgy. Follow more events at Utah Bitcoin Community https://www.meetup.com/UtahBitcoin/

Let's bring back the Bitmob (or a more sustainable rendering). Our community is ready to be more involved. This is a very lite kick-off at an event that has already been amazingly planned, introducing a digital currency that can work the best for initially on-boarding local business, starting from more decentralized and independent marketplaces.

Our local Dash team will have a booth with volunteers who will be helping to educate peers on how Dash works and answering any questions they may have about cryptocurrency in general. We also have a few vendors onboard with using Dash. Dash is also providing incentive for both the vendors and customers to simply learn about Dash and crypto.

Please find the Dash booth in the Brain Zone Booth Q

***This is a free event.
