Untraceable’s Futurist Conference Offers Immersive Introduction to Blockchain Use Cases
Aug 9, 2019
For those wanting to get a finger on the pulse of the blockchain revolution, Untraceable’s Blockchain Futurist – the largest blockchain conference in Canada – is the place to be. This landmark blockchain event returns to the Rebel Entertainment Complex and Cabana in Toronto, Canada, Aug. 13–14.
The extravaganza promises two days of demos and discussions, a blockchain boot camp, airdrops of cryptocurrency, gamification, and endless opportunities to build and strengthen networks. Information on schedules, speakers and sponsors can be found on the conference website and through the event web app (http://ccw.fm/jdDk1).
While Untraceable’s Blockchain Futurist Conference is truly futuristic, the conference is not about pie-in-the-sky projects. The event offers a close-up view of practical blockchain applications, including the HERC.one blockchain platform (http://ccw.fm/v43hH). Developed by Hercules SEZC, one of four title sponsors of Untraceable’s conference, the platform uses blockchain tokenization to improve the operation of supply chains.
HERC’s innovative platform will find ready application in food distribution channels, ensuring transparency and trust with regard to origin, product quality, product safety and other factors. If contaminated food enters the system, the immutable transparent record of the blockchain will be able to pinpoint the exact source, which significantly reduces associated costs. Typically after an alert or warning of contaminated food is issued by the United States Department of Agriculture, large quantities of good food are recalled and destroyed along with the bad simply because current supply chain systems cannot identify exactly where and when the food was debased. Blockchain technology solves that problem, and it not only saves money but helps save lives. According to the World Health Organization, “an estimated 600 million — almost 1 in 10 people in the world — fall ill after eating contaminated food and 420,000 die every year” (http://ccw.fm/Ev3G5).
The first use case of HERC.one took off in 2018. AnthemGold Inc. is using the Hercules Supply Chain Blockchain Protocol to validate the chain of custody of the gold backing its AGLD asset tokens. In addition, another participating company, Artcryption, has used the Fast Access Blockchain platform to develop a system to protect, track and trade art and other collectibles. HERC will be tracking the peaches, eggs and other produce at Futurist Conference. With one scan, attendees will be able to see exactly what farm the food items originated from and what time they were actually picked up.
The featured Blockchain Boot Camp is another enticing reason to attend Blockchain Futurist. Designed for beginners as well as those looking for a refresher, the Blockchain Bootcamp offers an easy and encouraging way to learn about the basics of cryptocurrency, Bitcoin and blockchain technology as well as their different use cases. Topics on the bootcamp agenda include an introduction to Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies; blockchain use cases; security token offerings (STOs); and decentralized applications (DAPPs).
Attendees will have an opportunity to download their first crypto wallet during the conference, which will be loaded with $50 in free cryptocurrency courtesy of Untraceable. Conferencegoers will also have opportunities to receive crypto airdrops from sponsors throughout the event. VirgoCX, a new exchange in Canada, will be giving $20 of crypto to every attendee, and BUNZ will give out its BTZ digital currency and enable food trucks onsite at the conference to accept BTZ as payment for lunch.
Come join the crypto community in Canada for this immersive blockchain and innovation experience as the Futurist Conference unveils the future of blockchain!
