The next day, as the core team continued to man the booth, Anna split off to attend the CoinMarketCap Global Conference, where she had a chance to connect with major exchange owners and potential business partners. Veronica was then invited to attend a workshop at the INSEAD Business School on the topic of stablecoins. Blockshow Asia kicked into gear in the middle of the week for Lior, Petko, and Anna to give more demos at the company booth.
