When I arrived in Denver last year, the first thing I did was attend Denver Startup Week. It blew me away. After experiencing it, I decided to move to Denver full time, relocate Wampei here and sell my house. It feels great for Wampei to be a part of DSW after just one year here.

There are some great Denver Startup Week Blockchain / Crypto events, and pitches are coming up that I thought I’d share.

I am excited about the BlockChain Hub. Wampei is a Gold Sponsor and we will be there helping merchants accept Bitcoin payments and getting new Bitcoin consumers started.  It will be a 6-hour event where consumers will be able to install a Bitcoin wallet, load it with Bitcoin and buy drinks, art, and more (https://www.denverstartupweek.org/schedule/4903-blockchain-hub-presented-by-salt) — Thank you Salt!

Designing Blockchain for the People

I do not know much about this one, but user-friendliness is certainly an area where Blockchain apps #fail often.
