It is that time of year again, when the entire crypto sector comes to NYC. It is called Blockchain Week NYC and there are a dozen or more industry events like the Coin Center Annual Dinner, The Third Annual Token Summit, Consensus, Women On The Block, and many more.
There will also be breakfasts, dinners, company sponsored events, etc, etc.
I will be at many of these events, speaking at a few of them, and am excited to see the crypto sector live and in person this week in NYC.
With the crypto winter seemingly coming to an end and spring on the horizon, it is a great time to take stock of the sector and get excited about it again. Except that I never lost my excitement. Sometimes you just need to hibernate for a year and last year was a good one to do that.
Finally, I am so pleased that NYC was able to secure the spot where the crypto industry comes together once a year. It makes sense that crypto would be big here, given the financial services talent, engineering talent, and commercial sensibility that has always been resident in this town.
If only our regulators in NYS would be as excited about crypto as I am and everyone who is coming to NYC this week is.
