  • DAOs

What makes AraCon different from other Blockchain events?

We aren't trying to cover all possible elements of blockchain technology or cryptocurrencies. We are focusing on what we know and see as fundamental pieces of this nascent technology and future.

By concentrating on a few themes, we can provide much deeper and thorough presentations on these topics.

This space is full of great minds who can eloquently express the shared vision we all have of a better future. Together with concrete lessons on how this technology is being built, the conference will provide you with a great overview of the decentralized web. Our goal for the event is that every attendee can feel and share the enthusiasm and excitement we have.
