September Blockchain and Future Tech Expo Set to Reveal How “Smart Money” Is Betting on the Fourth Industrial Revolution

DALLAS, TX – As “smart money” investors are coming to realize, the blockchain revolution is starting to become much bigger than just blockchain tech. This is because blockchain tech is set to converge with quantum computing, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and other emerging tech fields. This is a long-term trend that is driving what economics now refer to as the “Fourth Industrial Revolution.”

What Does it Mean?

Richard Jacobs, organizer of the bitcoin, Ethereum, and Blockchain Super Conference (which was held in Dallas back in February – not to be confused with new Blockchain and Future Tech Expo) explains:

“A few weeks ago, I was talking with an institutional investor, who I cannot name. His firm has several large positions in blockchain-based technologies. I was blown away – because these guys are lightyears ahead of the typical crypto enthusiast, in terms of how much they understand about how the lines between blockchain tech, quantum computing, and cybersecurity are rapidly blurring.”

“Because of the kind of money that’s involved, these guys wouldn’t be caught dead investing in something they don’t understand. And they’re seeing that the blockchain space is going to change rapidly over the next few years – thanks to the threats and opportunities from other technologies.”

More than a dozen similar conversations inspired Mr. Jacobs to organize the Blockchain and Future Tech Expo – which will be held at the Dallas Convention Center in September this year.

This time around, as well as bringing together some of the most respected developers, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and industry insiders in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space, this three-day event will also feature keynotes from several “smart money” investors and other movers and shakers from the fields of quantum computing, artificial intelligence, virtual and augmented reality, cybersecurity, 3D printing, and other emerging technologies that are set to radically disrupt the global economy. They will show attendees how they are preparing for the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Tickets to the Blockchain and Future Tech Expo are now on sale.

The regular ticket price is $897 – however, attendees who reserve their spot before Sunday, March 18th will benefit from a “Hyper Early Bird” price of $597 and get complimentary CD/DVD recordings of the bitcoin, Ethereum, and Blockchain Super Conference that was held in February.

About the Blockchain and FutureTech Expo:

The “blockchain revolution” is no longer just about blockchain anymore. In 2018-19 and beyond, blockchain tech is converging with quantum computing, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and other emerging technologies – and driving what economists call the “Fourth Industrial Revolution.”

The Blockchain and Future Tech Expo is the only conference that gives attendees the full picture on how “smart money” is betting on the fourth industrial revolution. That’s because it is bringing together more than 100 of the most respected developers, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and “smart money” investors from all the most important emerging technology fields – not just blockchain tech.

This three-day conference will be held at the Dallas Convention Center, close to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, in September. We are expecting more than 5,000 attendees, 100 headline speakers, and 150 exhibitors – with talks from founders, developers, and early-stage investors in blockchain, quantum computing, artificial intelligence, virtual and augmented reality, cybersecurity, and other emerging technologies that are set to disrupt almost every sector of the global economy.

The deadline for “Hyper Early Bird” tickets ends on Sunday, March 18, 2018.

Russia to Issue First State-Backed Cryptocurrency ‘CryptoRuble’

Russia has announced plans to launch a nationalized cryptocurrency called CryptoRuble, citing competitive advantage by being the first of its kind in Europe, and as state-controlled digital money in the light of an increasingly digital economy.


Russia has announced, via communications Minister Nikolay Nikiforov, that the country will begin experimenting with a nationalized cryptocurrency. Exact facts are scarce, and most of the information comes directly from quotes from Nikiforov, although it is believed that once the CryptoRuble is introduced, all other cryptocurrency mining for coins such as bitcoin will be banned. That Russia is taking these steps indicate a pressing need for governments to somehow financially oversea and realize returns from the digital economy.

After a recent closed-door meeting, Nikiforov stated:

I am so confident to declare that we will run CryptoRuble just for one simple reason: if we don’t, our neighbors in the Eurasian Economic Community will do it in a couple of months.

A Taxable Currency

The Russian government has made it clear that if a CryptoRuble owner cannot account for where they got it, they will be subject to a 13% tax. The online economy has made it difficult and a concern for governments to collect taxes on an increasing digital sales industry.

When buying and selling a CryptoRuble, the rate will be 13 percent from the earned difference. If the owner cannot explain the reason for the appearance of his CryptoRubles, when converting them into Russian rubles, the tax for him will be 13 percent of the total, Nikiforov said.

Online Reception

Online reception to the news has been mixed, with some claiming that it is simply “digital fiat” as opposed to a true cryptocurrency. Others see it as a shrewd move, capitalizing on what could become a trend for the rest of Europe.

Reddit user JeremyBF commented:

Wow, is there a legit source for this? I expect all governments to eventually do this, but this fast, awesome. This is actually great for bitcoin. Let the governments educate the people on the advantages of cryptocurrencies, the learning curve into bitcoin is then nearly complete!

The Russian move seems as much a response to engaging with the digital economy as it does to countering any competitive threat bitcoin might pose.

In the words of Nikiforov:

This mustn’t be a private currency, but the one, which is issued by the state, controlled by the state and enable to provide circulation of digital money in light of the digital economy.

Could a nationalized, centralized, government-controlled cryptocurrency work? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
