Pavel will be speaking to us about the tokenization of everything and specifically the following: How tokenization is different from ICOs What the key benefits of having your asset tokenized Which Blockchain (public / private / hybrid) should be conisdered There’s so much energy around blockchain projects currently. Much of the excitement has less to do with the capabilities of distributed ledger technology and smart contracts, and more to do with recent multi-million-dollar ICOs and token sales used to launch startups in a new way. Now people are attempting to tokenize all sorts of different assets. Everything is capable of being tokenized, from shares to money to receipts to loyalty programs, and issued in multiple blockchains.  About Pavel Kravchenko: Dr. Pavel Kravchenko holds a PhD in technical sciences and is the founder of Distributed LabPavel studied information security since 2003, including topics in advanced cryptography.

Loom is a distributed ledger with a blockchain that can scale over 700,000 transactions per second on a google fiber connection, over 100,000x more transactions per second than Bitcoin.  Anatoly's programming career started with Agat, the Soviet Apple 2 clone, and led him to eventually work on operating systems at Qualcomm, distributed systems at Mesosphere, and compression at Dropbox.   Come join us and discuss the technical challenges to scaling blockchain and wax philosophical about a possible future where history is objective and cryptographically verifiable, and we can look back in time and know when events occurred with a millisecond resolution.
