Trevor Jones – Keys to a Successful (Art) Career
@trevorjonesart shares his incredible journey of innovation and success, from traditional painting to becoming a trailblazer in digital art and Web3.
Trevor’s curiosity led him to experiment with QR codes in art, creating interactive experiences that bridged the physical and digital worlds. Partnering with creative technologist @dpoxley, he explored AR and NFC-enabled paintings.
His crypto journey began in 2017, inspiring him to paint iconic figures from the blockchain space and sell his artwork for Bitcoin—a move that gained global recognition. His pivotal piece, Bitcoin Angel, became a defining moment, selling 4,158 editions in just seven minutes and generating $3.2 million.

The Future of Advertising: Blockchain's Role in Making the $600bn Ads Market Transparent and Efficient
In this insightful session, @Benjaminputley, CEO of @AlkimiExchange, explores how blockchain is revolutionising the $600 billion global advertising industry by replacing outdated, inefficient infrastructure with cutting-edge programmable technology.
Ben highlights how Alkimi Exchange empowers advertisers and publishers to buy and sell advertising space through real-time auctions. The online advertising industry has been reliant on legacy infrastructure designed over 30 years ago—an inefficient and fragmented system that no longer serves the needs of the digital age. Programmatic advertising infrastructure is broken, leading to waste, and reduced transparency.
Discover how blockchain enables programmable infrastructure, driving efficiency, reducing costs, and creating a more transparent ecosystem for all participants.
Whether you're an advertising professional, a blockchain enthusiast, or simply interested in the future of digital media, this keynote provides a comprehensive look at how blockchain technology is transforming the advertising landscape.
