Giacomo graduated in 2009 in theoretical physics at the University of Milan. While working as technology consultant for Accenture in 2008 and got involved in promoting Libertarianism and free-market ideals, he discovered Bitcoin. This allowed him to unify his personal political ideas with his career. In 2014 he collaborated in many Bitcoin-related projects, and founded BlockchainLab, an internationally-recognised applied research centre. In 2017 Zucco decided to pursue a more global perspective with the BHB Network project and founding of the BHB Network Foundation.

Alekos Bitcoin enthusiast, passionate about coding and cryptography. Currently working on open source projects to push the Bitcoin space forward!

ABSTRACT

Bitcoin technologies have the potential to represent one of the next technological leaps of humankind, one just as important as the Internet itself. In the next years this new technological paradigm can affect and change countless use cases, markets, industries. The biggest deficit in the Bitcoin ecosystem is the lack of developers that really understand the technology and this workshop is the first step to bridge the gap.
