Bitget, a prominent player in the cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 space, is preparing to host an exclusive event known as Bitget Elite Day London. Scheduled for September 10th, the event will take place at The Royal Society in London and is being organized in collaboration with Saturnia Design. The focus will be on shaping a pragmatic and long-term vision for digital finance in Europe, emphasizing the role of blockchain technology in facilitating sustainable real-world applications rather than mere speculative investments.
This London edition follows the successful inaugural Bitget Elite Day held in Budapest last June, which attracted a diverse array of industry stakeholders. The upcoming gathering aims to build upon those discussions and tackle crucial questions regarding the future of blockchain and cryptocurrency. Key topics will include whether blockchain can flourish independently of crypto and the relevance of cryptocurrencies over the next decade.
The panel of discussions will feature influential figures in the industry, including Shamit Ghosh, CEO and Founder of GVG Group, and Mike Vitez, Co-founder of Saturnia Design. They are expected to delve into pivotal topics such as the integration of decentralized finance (DeFi) within traditional banking frameworks, fresh investment opportunities arising from tokenization, and the potential of digital wallets evolving into digital passports.
Vugar Usi Zade, the COO of Bitget, emphasized that the event is crafted to foster serious dialogues necessary for propelling Web3 beyond its nascent stages. He articulated the goal of uniting stakeholders from various sectors to agree on innovation, compliance, and increased adoption, thereby promoting a sustainable future for digital finance.
This event emerges at a significant moment when the digital asset landscape in Europe is undergoing considerable transformations. As one of the leading cryptocurrency markets, Europe is at the forefront of digital innovation, showcasing a robust ecosystem that includes both institutional and retail players. The rapid evolution of the market is unlocking a plethora of opportunities driven by real-world applications of blockchain technologies.
Mike Vitez underscored the importance of taking actionable steps in the Web3 space, stating, “We’re not here to talk about abstract ideas. Instead, we want to explore tangible ways that Web3 can solve real-world problems.” He reiterated the event’s purpose of transitioning from mere vision to practical execution, showcasing how a user-centric approach can foster meaningful and lasting adoption.
