What's Happening? 

 

Opened by the Lord Mayor of London and backed by City AM, the free six-hour online event will include talks and vibrant panel discussions from a roster of 30 leading experts in the blockchain and DeFi fields.

 

CUDOS, Coinintelligence Fund, Aave, Boson Protocol, Brave, CryptoCompare and Ziglu are just some of the names taking part. The evolution of DeFi and its potential for growth, smart contract audits and smart contract cyber security, DeFi investments and staking, regulation and - key theme - digital inclusion are just some of the topics that will be discussed.

 

Umbria presentation 

 

Barney and Oscar will take to the virtual stage at 7:20PM–7:40PM BST where they will discuss how Umbria is removing the barriers to entry for DeFi. Their talk will cover: 

 

-    Lack of accessibility for beginners entering the space - how Umbria is creating a user-friendly experience so that decentralised finance is open to anyone

 

-    Ethereum fees and transaction speed - what Layer 2 does for DeFi and how Umbria is implementing it

 

-    DeFi project trust issues – Umbria has AIM-listed Online Blockchain plc as its co-ordinator, administrator and advisor. This brings a high level of trust, credibility and transparency to the project; something quite rare in the DeFi space
