Hey friends, Jacob here from CoinDesk... For investors who have not yet bought their ticket to Consensus: Invest, you're not going to want to wait any longer to register. At CoinDesk, we stage events to facilitate productive discussions and growth in the industry. Consensus: Invest will provide this opportunity for in-depth discussion as crypto and Wall Street collide, with our speakers talking about the outlook for 2019. Check out our agenda and see for yourself! We have Jay Clayton, the SEC Chairman, joining Glenn Hutchins on stage. Andrew Ross Sorkin from The New York Times is talking to Mohamed A. El-Erian about his growing interest in crypto. Jeffrey Sprecher from ICE/NY Stock Exchange and Kelly Loeffler from Bakkt are joining our own Michael Casey to talk about institutionalizing crypto and the race to win Wall Street. Later in the day, Jan van Eck, CEO of VanEck Securities, will talk about new financial products being built — including the ETF that the SEC is currently deliberating. There are also a lot of other really great sessions that we haven't even announced yet. But that changes now. We announced yesterday our new Crypto-Economics Explorer. Willy Woo and Chris Burniske will take the stage with Nolan to talk about the various ways of looking at crypto-economics when evaluating assets. Only some crypto hedge funds have had an impact on the industry with most acting as copycats. This session brings investors from various types of funds to discuss their structure and how they see the market. The futures market has changed significantly over the past few years. It used to be crypto startups trying to create derivatives, but now we have the largest exchanges in the world participating. Learn more about what is happening in the futures space. What products are actually available for institutional investors? This panel brings together leading sell-side participants to talk about the various opportunities available for institutional investors. As you can see, we have incredibly bright and innovative speakers joining us at Consensus: Invest. And this is just four sessions of our agenda. I encourage you to check out the agenda and determine which panels will help you prepare for 2019. Nowhere else can professional investors gain an outlook on the crypto market for next year. If you're still unsure why you should come and have questions, feel free to email me. I'm happy to answer any of your questions. See you there! Jacob & Team CoinDesk |
