Press conference on the future of the industry
Over the past month, the main cryptocurrencies, bitcoin and ethereum, have grown by 19% and 23%. This is several times higher than the growth of traditional businesses, such as giants of capitalization from the S&P 500 stock index, over the same period.
At the same time, we hear the increasing number of statements from Russian politicians at the highest level about cryptocurrencies as a way to resolve the current economic situation in Russia. Recall that Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak recently spoke about the need to legalize the mining and equate it with entrepreneurial activity.
It is obvious that the industry is waiting for a new stage of development in the near future and therefore a number of issues have arisen that need to be addressed now.
On April 4, 2022 at 11:00 a.m. a press conference will be held in the Press Center of the MIA Rossiya Segodnya (RIA Novosti) where the main figures of the Russian crypto industry and state representatives will speak. They will discuss the possibilities of overcoming sanctions with the help of cryptocurrencies, the new place of the industry in Russia, as well as the future of the digital ruble.
Invited speakers:
- Igor Ananskikh – First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Energy
- Vladislav Martynov – entrepreneur, head of the Ethereum Russia competence center, founder of BlockGeeks
- Dmitry Marinichev – Internet Ombudsman, representative of the Commissioner under the President of the Russian Federation for the Protection of the Rights of Entrepreneurs in the Internet
- Sergey Khitrov is the founder of the Listing.Help company and the Blockchain Life forum.
In addition, the conference will also announce the VIII International Forum on Cryptocurrencies and Mining Blockchain Life, which will bring together more than 5,000 crypto enthusiasts on April 20-21 in Moscow.
