We invite you to a conference on privacy, decentralization, and the security of Web3 infrastructures.
The program includes an overview of the Dash ecosystem—one of the earliest “payment-first” projects in Web3, launched as a Bitcoin fork back in 2014—a discussion of privacy technology and cryptography in practice, as well as an analysis of where privacy technologies are headed in 2026.
Together with speakers from Dash, Sber, Shard, Symbiosis, and Skoltech, we will discuss the future of private cryptocurrencies in everyday life, methods of transaction analysis, the role of confidential pools in CeFi, MPC in centralized finance, and the application of decentralization in computing networks.
