Dash Embassy Update: DZBank and GENOhackathon (D-A-CH)

In May of this year we had a booth and a speaking slot at a conference called “Innovation for banks 2018”. Jan Heinrich Meyer gave a talk about cryptocurrencies and their governance structure, where he focused on the Dash DAO and its implications for the scalability of a monetary cryptocurrency.

At the event he met Patrick Steiner from the Innovation Lab of the DZ BANK, the second largest banking group in Germany (Volksbank, Raiffeisenbank, Sparda, PSD and many more).He invited us to speak at the DZ BANK innovation roundtable about cryptocurrencies and their advantages.

The first thing we mentioned was the success of Dash in Venezuela and why this could also happen quickly in places like Turkey.We also explained why exchanges in the developed world are making more money than traditional banks and why Dash is on the cutting edge of this technology.

They were really interested when we talked about the current success of cryptocurrency ATM companies.

The attendees were also amazed by our presentation and we are now invited to join the GENOhackathon which will take place in the German Microsoft office in Cologne in November.

The two topics we want to pitch at the Hackathon are Multi-Signature Wallets for bank customers and the integration of Dash into their ATM-network.To make the perfect case for Dash, we are joined by two developers from the Core team: Alexander Block (codablock) and Alex Werner (obusco).

We are really excited about the possible outcome of this Hackathon and we will keep you up to date. We hope that our ideas will resonate with the decision makers at this event.
