Hi everyone. We created hack.summit() to disrupt online events. Physical conferences in real-life typically exist for a business purpose: to maximize profits for their centralized stewards. Indeed, there have been many blockchain conferences over the past year that have this goal. We believe this is a missed opportunity. The decentralized nature of blockchain democratizes access and eliminates rent-seeking middlemen. We believe this concept should be applied to events as well. hack.summit() embraces this theme -- the event is decentralized and has no physical presence. Speakers from around the globe unite to focus on providing free technical education. No centralized authority seeks to profit, and the event is inclusive of a global community of 157 countries without requiring speakers nor attendees to travel. Hope to see you there.
