Syscoin and BCF News
Block Party Amsterdam
Syscoin lead developers Jag Sidhu and Dan Wasyluk gave in-depth presentations to a packed room at Block Party Amsterdam last week. It was highly productive trip for everyone involved and was extremely effective in engaging a broad audience with technologies such as Syscoin Bridge and ZDAG. A big thank you is due to SDMT for helping to organise this event with BlockNorth; a lot of effort went into it both on the day and behind the scenes, in particular from Michiel and Ryan.
You can view clips from the presentations below.
