2:30 Swell Concludes
Note
First Update from conference:Ripple Partners with Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to create new interoperable system to bring the poor into the global economy.
Note
Ripple Conference Live-stream on soon. See it here.youtube.com/watch?v=llikxJiSgGo
Note
Live stream of Swell by Ripple will be available to view at 2pm EST.Note
Ben Bernanke is currently speaking, just as the schedule indicates. However, live stream does not start until 2pm EST!Note
Live Stream has begun!youtube.com/watch?v=G_AVEQHnsDE
Note
Day 1 concludes and there is no news beside the partnership with the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation that came early in the morning. Most speakers spoke generally and did not hint at anything unexpected. It is possibly that we might experience a trend where the price rises up into the morning expecting more news to come early and prior to the live-stream.
Another trend to look out for might be that steep drop at lunch.
Maybe the lunch was overcooked? Who know.
Note
So far nothing interesting coming out of the conference. Some speakers are even pessimistic about crypto altogether. Not ideal. It will take something big to recover from this.
