- Emilie Choi, president and COO of Coinbase, will share her perspective on the future of Web3, benefits of on-chain technology, the complexities of regulation and how entrepreneurs can build the future of Web3.
- Chris Dixon, founder and managing partner of a16z crypto and general partner at Andreessen Horowitz, will examine why blockchains are essential to cryptocurrency and the Web3 ecosystem, the value of NFTs, the future of the “new internet” and why decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) are experiments in democracy.
