⚡️Why You Won’t Want to Miss These Speakers

Long-time crypto enthusiast, Muneeb Ali is the Co-Founder and CEO of Hiro Systems (previously Blockstack). Hiro’s mission is to provide the developer tools for building, shipping, and using decentralized apps on Bitcoin. As the world of dapps explodes on other chains, can Bitcoin catch up? 

Catherine Gu is the Global Head of CBDCs at Visa, driving digital currency solutions with central banks and global infrastructure technology providers. Less than a decade ago, Visa was the payment processor to disrupt by the cryptocurrency community, but today Visa is looking at how it can adopt the technology for its own goals. Gu spent two years researching stablecoins while studying at Stanford University, so she’s got the research to back up her understanding of the ecosystem. 

Jamie Burke is the Founder and CEO of Outlier Ventures, a startup accelerator that focuses on advancing the metaverse. The company has invested in Brave, Chainlink, Cosmos, and many more projects and protocols. Burke himself was an early investor in Bitcoin and Ethereum and is an active NFT collector today. 

Doug Petkanics is the founder and CEO of Livepeer, a blockchain-based video streaming protocol, which leverages decentralization to drive down costs and meet the needs of developers building video streaming apps at scale. He focuses on protocol research and software development. 

And last but not least, Simona Pop is the Head of Community at Status. Status is building a mobile application that combines a crypto wallet, messenger and Web3 browser all in one. Simona is an active Ethereum ecosystem steward, working across community engagement initiatives, education programs, and the real world use of crypto in an effort to level the playing field and empower individuals. 

With these names and 150+ more speakers on the agenda, Mainnet 2021 is going to be an agenda-setting summit you can’t miss. We look forward to hosting you in September. Don’t miss your chance to snag your pass
