Months later, there was a second version in Bogotá, Colombia. In total we managed to impact more than 1,500 people and have more than 48 hours of didactic material on Blockchain technology, all available on our website, "said Cristóbal Pereira, organizer of Blockchain Summit Latam and CEO of mifutu.ro.

For his part, Carlos Valderrama CEO of Hyperblock said that Mexico has been selected to host the Blockchain Summit Latam, since it is one of the countries in Latin America where this technology has been developed and adopted very quickly, as it counts with more than 80 companies within the ecosystem and is the first country to issue a Fintech Law in Latin America that includes the regulation of Cryptoassets.
