Anywhere you go in the SF bay area these days, the topic of Bitcoin, Ripple, Ether, Blockchain, ICO’s, Tokens or something related is bound to find a way into the conversation. Depending on who you ask, this topic has been associated with descriptions that range from “Bubble” to “Future of Finance”, along with a number of adjectives to fill in the gaps in between. Join fellow Cornell alums and our friends from Columbia and Penn to see what the buzz is all about, for an insightful discussion with our panel on Cryptocurrency, the underlying technology, and its applications in numerous sectors.
