Reflecting on CryptoExpoEurope: Key Takeaways At the beginning of March, I attended CryptoExpoEurope in Bucharest,Romania. To clarify upfront: I’m not a crypto expert, and my personal exposure to crypto remains modest (~5% of my portfolio, well-diversified). My goal was simply to stay informed about industry trends and explore intersections with broader business opportunities,something I prioritize across all sectors. Why I decided to attend ? • Stay Updated: The crypto/blockchain space evolves rapidly, and attending events like this helps me separate hype from substance. • Network with Professionals: I met brilliant investors, analysts, and the omnipresent eToro team (they’re everywhere @eToroTeam Their visibility underscores how embedded crypto platforms are becoming in global finance. Key Insights That Struck Me: 1. Crypto Adoption in Business: o Expect more traditional businesses to accept crypto (e.g PayPal, Visa integrations) and a surge in hybrid models (physical businesses + crypto utilities). Think NFT-backed memberships, tokenized loyalty programs, or DAO-governed ventures. The botton line here it is , Will regulatory clarity accelerate this? 2. Blockchain & AI Synergies: o Beyond crypto, blockchain’s transparency could mitigate AI’s “black box” risks (e.g. verifying training data sources, tracking AI-generated content). o Projects combining decentralized compute power for AI training caught my eye. 3. Money Movement Revolution: o Crypto enables near-instant, borderless transfers which it is a historic shift. This empowers individuals/businesses but also raises concerns (volatility, fraud, regulatory gaps). o Stablecoins and CBDCs (central bank digital currencies) might bridge the gap between crypto speed and traditional finance’s stability. My Balanced View: The potential is staggering, but risks remain (many scams, speculation, volatility, tech infancy etc). My 5% allocation reflects cautious optimism ,enough to stay engaged, not enough to lose sleep. Events like this remind me that there is a huge crypto community and it’s a lens into the future of trust, ownership, and value exchange. $BTC (Bitcoin) $ETH (Ethereum) $BNB (Build and Build) $SOL (Solana) $ADA (Cardano) Best regards , Fernando Gutiérrez
