Six months of new digital policy: Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference Belarus to discuss Decree No. 8

On October 10, Minsk will host Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference Belarus, an event dedicated to blockchain and cryptocurrencies. It will bring together reputed industry experts, blockchain enthusiasts, startupers, and entrepreneurs on a single platform.

The event will take place for the second time. The first conference was attended by more than 400 people, and speakers included experts from five countries.

Digital policy in Belarus

Due to the decree “On the Development of Digital Economy”, the state has legalized the cryptocurrency turnover based on the Hi-Tech Park since March 28. Prime Minister of Belarus Andrei Kobyakov states that if this experience succeeds, such a practice will be applied nationwide.

According to the new legislation, Belarus does not refer mining to entrepreneurial activity and does not impose taxes on it up to January 1, 2023. Besides, the country provides affordable electricity, which makes it one of the most favorable for cryptocurrency mining.

The state pays great attention to the development of the IT sector: the Government has approved the digital banking development strategy for 2016–2020. Moreover, members of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus say that information technology in 2018 should become the main driver of the economy development. Currently, the Government is aimed at creating as favorable conditions as possible for the activity of IT companies within the country. Participants of Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference Belarus will discuss the possibility of implementing such a plan and the existing prerequisites for this.

Key topics of the conference

Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference Belarus will primarily focus on the legal issue:

  • results of the first six months of the decree “On the Development of Digital Economy”;
  • features of Belarus jurisdiction for blockchain solutions, mining, and investment in cryptocurrencies;
  • legislative changes and policy on foreign IT companies.

The program will include presentations dedicated to blockchain solutions and smart contracts: from their application areas to the development of decentralized apps and platforms.

In addition, speakers will talk about cryptocurrencies: they will examine trends in the crypto market and tokenization, as well as share their predictions.

ICOs will be also mentioned: experts will discuss industry news, trends, and prospects of ICO campaigns in Belarus.

The conference will feature panel discussions involving specialists from various countries and professional sectors.

Everything for networking

The event will offer an exhibition area. It will present stands of companies selling mining equipment, developers of blockchain-based software, and providers of related services.

Attendees of Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference Belarus will be able to realize the operational concept of certain products by obtaining advice of company representatives. If a solution is appropriate for your business, you can immediately agree on the cooperation.

Transformation of education in post-industrial society

Gambar
Education has always been an expensive privilege; and the education sector has always been one of the most conservative. People chose profession once in their life and did not change it until retirement. Usually education meant studying at a university; self-taught people were rare. However, in the post-industrial society changes in the shape, sense and affordability of education finally began. According to Alvin Toffler, a well-known US sociologist, the emergence of the post-industrial society is a consequence of the intellectual revolution. The possession of knowledge and information will replace financial capital as the biggest value. Development of innovations, empowered by the most educated, will become the most important sector of economy. It means that high-quality affordable education will become even more important than now. The last time when the global education experienced a serious transformation was at the very beginning of the 21st century when the wide access to the I...

After GDPR effect? In A Post Cookie World, Blockchain Is Rising

Gambar
The European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was rolled out in May this year. It introduced far-reaching implications for companies which process personal data related to EU citizens. Even those far outside the EU could not fail to notice this change. Email inboxes were overflowing with opt-out reminders. Cookie banners now obscure many websites, forcing users to agree to a privacy policy so that they can browse the content on the site. Although the GDPR document itself clocks in at 88 pages, the majority of what it covers can be summed up in one word — consent. If companies are processing personal data, it must be done with the explicit, informed consent of the individual. For some forms of marketing, such as email subscriber lists, this involved minimal changes. Individuals already have to take the active step of providing their email addresses, and usually it is pretty clear why they are asked to do so. However, for the digital advertising industry, consent is far less ...
