Organised by Untraceable Events, the conference will delve into themes as bitcoin, staking, Web 3, and decentralised finance.

Nigerian delegation will consolidate on gains of blockchain adoption and growth of digital economy, as reports rank the country as the third fastest-growing crypto-currency market globally.

Okogbenin noted West Africa continues to remain critical to adoption of blockchain technology, while platforms such as Futurist Blockchain Conference can deepen partnerships.

He said: “An important plan in driving innovation is partnerships and knowledge-sharing, which is something forums such as this offers.”

Uzoma said: “Despite government regulation on crypto-currency, blockchain technology continues to grow. But we have just scratched the surface, there’s a lot more ground to conquer. One success factor would be collaboration, and this is what makes the conference exciting for me.”
