In Istanbul, we will give #Privacy meaning and discuss the latest findings & developments, as well as must haves and upcoming opportunities of the Ethereum Ecosystem. 

 

Experience an extraordinary gathering, full of hungry minds who are curious to create the future, as well as newly interested people from all kinds of backgrounds. Learn and understand what #Privacy can and should do, for all of us: projects & users. Join us, meet us, make new friends from all over the world.
