The Scottish Blockchain Meetup welcomes everyone interested in blockchain technology—whether you’re an expert, amateur, miner, critic, or just curious. Our community is diverse and inclusive, making it the perfect place to explore the burgeoning blockchain scene in Scotland. At the heart of our gatherings, you’ll discover the latest developments and innovative projects that are shaping the local blockchain landscape.
Our mission is multifaceted. We aim to stimulate engaging and productive discussions, empower a new wave of decentralized application (dApp) developers, and provide participants with the necessary skills to contribute to “blockchainifying” Scotland. Moreover, we strive to nurture a space where diverse opinions and independent thinking are not only welcomed but encouraged.
Topics at our meetups span the broad spectrum of blockchain and its implications:
- Exploring the philosophy of Web3 and the future of the internet.
- Understanding trustless applications and the foundation of DeFi (Decentralized Finance) technology.
- Learning how to develop dApps and the various blockchains they operate on, including their underlying philosophies and technical intricacies.
- Delving into DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations) and their role in the digital economy.
- Examining corporate and governmental blockchain applications and their potential to transform industries.
- Discussing identity verification mechanisms on the blockchain.
- Analyzing the world of blockchain gaming, NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens), their innovative uses, and the broader social, economic, and technological implications.
- Investigating how blockchain technology can drive social change and support efforts to build a better world.
- Evaluating the economic and business models underlying blockchain applications, including what investors seek and expect in return.
We’re always looking for speakers, sponsors, and hosts who wish to contribute to our community and share their knowledge and experiences. If you’re passionate about blockchain and its potential to innovate, join us at the Scottish Blockchain Meetup and be part of the conversation that’s driving Scotland’s digital future.
