Crypto conferences becoming tamer, bear market prioritises discussions

With every crypto investor’s lips having only two words right now “crypto winter”, the crypto event organisers have cut down on the exuberance of events. They are trying to keep the focus only on the more relevant arguments to be raised concerning tax and other regulations.

Crypto events witness the presence of high level executives and founders along with those who use crypto or promote it. For example Tiffany Fong, a crypto influencer who gained fame interviewing Bankman-Fried after the FTX fiasco, is a frequent attendee to these events. She has noted that right now the crypto conferences are much lighter than what they used to be during bull markets, “People have named dropped huge DJs that have performed in past conferences during bull markets and point out that the parties and events are much tamer this year.”

However, Fong believes that crypto still shines through despite the bear market and these conferences are a good opportunity for networking with the major, determined players of this industry.

Meanwhile, there was an event for the XRP Army held in Las Vegas on May 6 and 7 where the attendees were seen being enthusiastic and optimistic about the crypto’s future.

Pro-XRP lawyer John Deaton said that the XRP fans were seen asking relevant and well planned questions at the event but he could still feel a sense of worry in their queries, “I wouldn’t classify their emotion as one of fear but frustration because it shouldn’t be this difficult or take this long to achieve regulatory clarity in the United States.”
