Blockchain Protocols: Apps & Adoption

Blockchain by Women was born to create awareness, educate and connect people involved in this rocketing space. The focus is not a single meetup but a movement in the blockchain field to break down barriers and increase diversity. We want to build a community, support a network that shares knowledge, resources, the latest trends and foster relationships that lead to lasting companies. A community that showcases some of the amazing work and success stories women as well as men in this industry have created and achieved. A community that leads and empowers.

In this session, we’ll hear from the developers at these protocols talk about what they’ve found through interacting with their communities and what the protocols have built to enable rapid application development and user adoption.
