Celebrating its fifth anniversary, the 2022 Wyoming Blockchain Stampede, will be held September 19-23, featuring the WyoHackathon and the Wyoming Cybersecurity Conference.
The Stampede, sponsored by the UW Center for Blockchain and Digital Innovation (CBDI), features speakers, panels and events exploring the next generation of digital assists, blockchain-related startups, educational programs, financial and regulatory issues, digital identity, state and federal legislation, and cybersecurity and digital identity.
The 2022 WyoHackathon will start ahead of the Stampede on Friday, Sept 9. Operated by Rensa Games, it will be online with winners announced at the end of the Stampede. This year’s competition length will allow for more participants from UW and around the world to be involved, and more time for them to meet challenges for rewards offered by blockchain-related businesses.
