The Centbee Show 32 - London Blockchain Conference

Lorien and Kage start the show with a warm welcome, expressing their excitement about attending the London Blockchain Conference. Kage recounts his smooth travel experience from South Africa to London, including a brief stop in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

They dive into the significance of the London Blockchain Conference, emphasising its focus on real-world applications of BSV. The conference was a hub of activity, featuring keynote speakers, innovative projects, and a vibrant community of BSV enthusiasts from around the globe.

Centbee made a big splash with its colourful and lively booth, which drew significant attention. Lorien and Kage discuss the importance of representing Centbee and BSV in a fun and engaging manner, highlighting how their booth stood out as the most youthful and vibrant at the conference.

The hosts share insights from various BSV companies building apps, platforms, and infrastructure. They discuss innovations like smart contracts and the sCrypt language, which simplifies creating tokens on the BSV blockchain.

Lorien then shares his experience presenting a keynote at the RegTech Africa Conference in Lagos, Nigeria. He explains how he distinguished BSV blockchain from traditional cryptocurrencies, focusing on its regulatory capabilities and transparency.

They also delve into the technical highlights from the BSV DevCon. They discuss scaling solutions, such as Teranode's impressive transaction capabilities, and explore the potential of BSV as a general computing system. The role of IPv6 in enhancing SPV (Simple Payment Verification) and enabling decentralised, offline payments is another exciting topic covered.

AI's impact on blockchain is also explored, with discussions on how AI can improve blockchain analytics and reporting. They touch on the potential applications of BSV in the healthcare industry, particularly for maintaining verifiable patient records.

The introduction of stablecoins like the Uganda shilling stablecoin is another major highlight. Lorien reveals Centbee's plans to integrate USD stablecoins, aiming to provide a more stable user experience. This integration is expected to boost user confidence and adoption.

Lorien and Kage reflect on meeting global BSV ambassadors and the importance of a supportive and collaborative community. They share their experiences of connecting with notable speakers and influencers from outside the BSV community, such as Scott Galloway and Stephen Bartlett, who provided diverse perspectives on blockchain technology.

The episode concludes with Lorien and Kage expressing their gratitude to the community and their viewers. They encourage feedback and engagement, inviting viewers to share topics they would like covered in future episodes.
