Join the Virginia Blockchain Council for a dynamic, forward-looking conversation as we kick off the year with a deep dive into where Bitcoin and blockchain are headed—and what it means for builders, investors, businesses, and policymakers alike.
The past year delivered rapid shifts in markets, regulation, and real-world adoption. The year ahead promises even more momentum. From Bitcoin’s evolving role as financial infrastructure, to blockchain’s expanding impact on payments, capital markets, identity, and enterprise use cases, we’ll explore the signals that matter most and separate enduring trends from short-term noise.
This meetup is designed to be practical, engaging, and conversational. Expect thoughtful discussion around regulatory clarity, innovation happening on the ground, and how Virginia fits into the broader national and global landscape. Whether you’re actively building, investing, advising, or simply looking to better understand the technology shaping the future of finance and the internet, this evening will offer valuable perspective.
Connect with fellow members, industry leaders, and curious minds over drinks and discussion as we set the tone for the year ahead—and outline what’s next for Bitcoin, blockchain, and the growing ecosystem around them.
