With blockchain technologies seeping into mainstream consciousness over the past year, events like Consensus by Coindesk are quickly becoming something like E3, something that I would catch every year through livestreams, just to update myself on some developments.

Last year my sole focus was on anything related to Ethereum, EOS, and Naval Ravikant. None of that this year. In fact, I'm way more reserved about any general smart contract platforms this time around after discovering Tau. Nevertheless, I'll still try to keep an open mind, going more for topical talks. Oh and @ned's speaking as well! Here's the schedule that I'm looking out for.

8:10 am - 9:40 am (May 14)

So that about wraps it up. ~25% of the show with some clashes. Which talks are you looking out for? The opening just started. Join me. I'm in my pyjamas, watching the livestream now.

It's the first time I hear about this, I'm quite new but I'm very curious, I think the one that caught my attention is "How goverments use the technology" I think I'll see it.

Exciting times in crypto land. I wonder, do you think this is something which people will be able to adopt, use, and understand quickly or is this a project based on concepts so far in the future, it's solving needs which haven't yet matured? You are clearly a technical visionary, and I wonder how long it will be before the rest of us can catch up. Are you working with anyone we'd know to promote this?

@kevinwong, you discovered most smart platform last year. I found Tau via your blogs last year I guess. That would be very interesting agenda of Consensus 2018. Just better updating by you.

> I'll still try to keep an open mind, going more for topical discussions.

It's great idea you decided I totally appreciate and keep my eye on your vision. Thanks anyway.

It is the start of something big for hodlers as many institutions will start to pour in from here and into the coming weeks. It is great that there is such an event like this, good for traders and crypto enthusiasts alike.

Blockchain technology was born in response to concerns of some parties to the workings of a centralized software.

This technology was born in 2009 along with the advent of Bitcoin virtual currency which is becoming the current trend.

Blockchain technology is a technology that underlies the running of Bitcoin without relying on centralized servers and thus avoids the risk of downtime.

The blockchain system comes by transforming a centralized approach into decentralization.

In principle, blockchain technology conditions every server that runs this software to form a network consensus automatically to mutually replicate transaction data and verify each other's data.

Therefore, when one server is hacked, the server can be ignored because it is considered to have data that is different from the majority of other server networks.

This makes blockchain technology a much more powerful attack than a centralized technology because there is always at least 1 server running to handle transactions.

Blockchain technology enables network consensus to record and validate every transaction so that incoming data can not be falsified, lost or corrupted so that it can not be manipulated by the network provider.

The analogy to how blockchain works is almost the same as a cash book in a bank that records all transactions done by its users.

The only difference is that only authorized parties can access the transactions information in the bank's cash book, while transactions through blockchain can be viewed by all users because the information collected is also distributed to everyone who runs the server.

Additionally, since server access is granted to everyone, no party can fake or modify the transaction.

Wow, wasn't aware of all these talks, clicked on link, now (listening to some nice classical music, not much else :)

If you're curious to check out cultural talks, in your pjs, from a master conversationalist (he refers to himself as an 'Agitator of the Mind') I recommend you check out the events of Paul Holdengraber, from the New York Public Library. Here's a peek:

Seen anything worthwhile yet. Ned did ok. I didnโ€™t see Charlie lee talk on stage but I watched his one on one interview on YouTube, they essentially repeated the same question and answer five times....beh so far havenโ€™t seen anything else interesting.
