Enormous gratitude and thanks to all of you who made this a reality.
He bought Crypto in 2017 and got scammed.
Lost over $15,000.

In a practical sense, this is how it works.
1) Tether is by far the biggest, and it's run by bitcoiners
2) Because banks rugged exchanges in the early days USDT became the other side of the book. BTCUSDT is way bigger than BTCUSD.
3) USDT being the other side of the book grows with BTC market cap, hence the incentive for Tether is to protect BTC.
4) Given this BTC powered growth trajectory, Tether will eventually become the biggest US treasury buyer. With that comes a lot of defensive power to government attack.
Overall it's strengthening BTC, therefore freedom.
Moe Levin is no stranger to the crypto frontier. As the founder of the world’s most influential and longest-running blockchain conferences—the same stage that launched Ethereum in 2014—Moe has consistently shaped the trajectory of the industry’s defining moments.
Over the past 12 years, his impact has included driving over $1 billion in investment into crypto companies through his events, architecting the UAE’s federal blockchain strategy, and building lasting global crypto communities from Miami to Dubai.
He’s also the creator of Miami Blockchain Week, a citywide celebration that brings tens of thousands of crypto builders and believers to South Florida each year, earning an official proclamation from the City of Miami in his honor.
With a deep appreciation for the industry’s roots, Moe believes Hemi is finally delivering the convergence the world has been waiting for. “From the moment Ethereum launched on my stage in 2014, I knew the real story was about convergence. Bitcoin and Ethereum don’t compete—they complete each other. Hemi gets that. And now, I get the honor of sharing that story with the rest of the world.” @_moelevin
Few companies are doing this really well. @phantom@pudgypenguins and others are leading the way. It's a tricky balance between credibility and cuteness, and they're doing it perfectly.
@zackseward@mslopatto "At five years old, it’s the longest-running conference in the cryptocurrency world"...
Umm?
I wish I could say it's @CoinDesk's Consensus, launched by @joonian in 2015. But I'd say it's the North American Bitcoin Conference by Moe Levin of @keynote_ae. I attended in 2014.
Just had an amazing podcast interview with Moe Levin, Founder of WAGMI Miami. We discussed #Ethereum's launch at one of his first conferences in 2014, the power of crypto events, and the vast opportunities in the #Blockchain industry.
