BSV out of the loop, CoinGeek London conference to the top two

Read this article in 11 Minutes
George Gilder, a prominent economist, and Jimmy Wales, the founder of wikipedia, have both weighed in on bitcoin.

If you still remember, a blockchain conference hosted by Dragonfly in October 2019 caused a stir. Blockchain conference is not uncommon, but to invite outsiders are familiar with the big man, the conference instantly took the industry search.

That piece from the famous five people from the conference with box of the photos are the investment industry, the Internet industry, and most representative of the characters in the block chain industry, global managing partner of sequoia Capital, sequoia China's founder and executive partner shen, policy source vc founding partner, Dragonfly Feng Bo, founder of the Capital, encryption of monetary value of second project etheric fang founder Vitalik Buterin (V) god, xiaonei, no rice, Meituan founder Mr Wang, as well as the public comment on founder zhang.

Similarly, four months later, global celebrities attended the blockchain conference again, this time at the CoinGeek conference. At the fifth CoinGeek conference, well-known economist and best-selling author George Gilder and prominent figures outside the blockchain industry, including wikipedia founder and honorary chairman of the wikimedia foundation board of trustees Jimmy Wales, attended and expressed their views on blockchain and bitcoin.

Launched by CoinGeek founder Calvin Ayre, a prominent Bitcoin SV ecological supporter, the conference, now in its fifth year, aims to enable entrepreneurs, developers, and other cryptocurrency participants to share and learn about the latest developments and technologies in Bitcoin SV and promote the Bitcoin ecosystem. The previous CoinGeek assembly is in Seoul in October 2019, as the book of genesis upgrade before the last meeting, about the genesis of upgrade to nature is one of the highlights of the meeting, at the same time is also bitcoins SV Internet application outbreak in 2019 year, it has at the last meeting, by community focus on App, such as the founder of WeatherSV share are made at the meeting.

So how do these institutions and individuals in the non-blockchain industry view blockchain and bitcoin at the 5th CoinGeek conference, which has grown to 850 people?

George Gilber's fireside chat with CSW


A well-known economist, best-selling author, and proponent of technological utopianism, George Gilder is considered one of the leading economic and technological thinkers of the past four decades. He wrote 19 books, including "wealth and poverty," which is credited with guiding President Reagan's tax reform. At the CoinGeek conference, he not only gave a keynote address, but also had a fireside chat with Dr. Craig.

In their conversation, they talked about the information economy, the recognition that real money is time, the recognition that technology has great potential to improve the quality of human life, not ultimately replace it. George stressed that today's big data is stupid, and blockchain reliberates individual thinking and creativity.

When it comes to if the world can be driven by bitcoin, George says that if we can really create a secure Internet world where there is no economic panic, where there is no fragile business, that would be a success, and that the future of money replacing gold would be a success.

The two sides are not in complete agreement. On the question of whether bitcoin is digital gold, George insisted that bitcoin is digital gold and should have a fixed value. But the CSW rejects the idea of digital gold, saying that fixed values need to be manipulated and that no one should have the right to do so,

By the end of the conversation, there was no agreement between the two sides, but that didn't stop the two sides from appreciating each other. George congratulated CSW on its achievements. CSW also said that George was his idol, and he was very grateful for his ideas and theories.



Wikipedia founder who doesn't like bitcoin


In 2014, wikipedia announced it was accepting bitcoin donations and has reportedly received $400,000 worth of bitcoins so far. Jimmy Wales, the founder of wikipedia, was probably the only speaker at the conference who wasn't particularly interested in bitcoin.

In discussions with CSW about the use of bitcoin, Jimmy found no reason to use bitcoin. In the discussion, no one knows how wikipedia should use bitcoin, or what value does bitcoin add to wikipedia?

Jimmy thinks wikipedia's current database is transparent enough to manage the creators of each entry and have the right to remove illegal information, but the new management model of blockchain does not have many advantages worth trying.

When wikipedia started accepting bitcoin donations, Jimmy found that the total was actually lower. He analyzed how people saw the bitcoin option on the donation page and left the page out of curiosity to study bitcoin.

An important announcement at the conference

In addition to these industry luminaries expressing their views on Bitcoin, the Bitcoin Association, the official Association of Bitcoin SV, also announced several landmark decisions and collaborations at the conference.

First, in the healthcare segment, national health alliance NHC subsidiary EHR Data inc. announced at the conference a partnership with nChain to launch a system called g-ehr, in which all NHC medical Data will be migrated to the BSV network.

They believe that a serious medical problem at present is the lack of interoperability between medical data. The medical data of patients are not in their own hands, but in the hands of some medical giants, which means that doctors cannot fully understand the medical history of patients.

The medical data company has finally decided to change that with the Bitcoin SV network, allowing patients to decide who they want to access their medical data. In their view, blockchain can be used to share patient data among multiple parties on the premise of guaranteeing patient privacy, which can completely solve one of the biggest pain points in the medical industry.



Secondly, on the developer side, in order to meet the training needs of more and more developers, nChain decided to create a formal education course to meet the needs. This training course includes written, PPT, video, etc. Finally, the developer can go through a complete process to complete the training and become the official developer of Bitcoin SV.

At the same time, nChain launched a new version of Bitcoin SV Wiki, which is no longer suitable for new developers due to the entry of new developers. The new version of Wiki makes it easier for developers to understand and get started with Bitcoin SV development.

Review the convention, to attract attention is one of the aims of the convention, from George Gilber, Jimmy Wales for block chain and COINS mixed evaluation, to the courses for developers around the world, to the cooperation with NHC organization medical data, not said bitcoins SV the chain blocks are getting more and more attention, from the industry, extended to the outside of the industry.

Increased attention from outside the industry is bound to bring about the increment of Bitcoin SV. These increments feed Bitcoin SV with the developer course, and the application can attract users and form a positive cycle, which is the final goal of CoinGeek conference.


The CoinGeek London conference is over, and according to the CoinGeek website, the 6th CoinGeek conference will be held in New York in October 2020. The conference's impact on external increments, developers, and users will become apparent.
