Bitget, a prominent global cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has significantly enriched the local blockchain and crypto communities by actively participating in pivotal events during Canada Crypto Week 2024. This involvement has empowered hundreds of Web3 enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, tech talents, and civil activists to engage in discussions about breakthrough ideas, share valuable insights, and forge meaningful connections within Toronto’s dynamic fintech environment. This underscores Bitget’s global commitment to fostering dialogue and promoting inclusion in the cryptocurrency sphere.
Canada is rapidly establishing itself as a leading global crypto hub with a distinguished history. Notably, it was the first country in the world to introduce Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, among numerous other innovations. This year, Canada Crypto Week continued to champion this pioneering spirit through a series of events that brought together the local community with the aim of propelling the Canadian crypto market to unprecedented heights.
Bitget proudly supported several of these groundbreaking initiatives. Over 600 participants engaged in 10 side events facilitated by Bitget, with four particularly noteworthy events standing out.
At the Web3 Toronto Conference, some of the industry’s most brilliant minds gathered to discuss crucial topics such as startup building, venture capital fundraising, technology policy, and ecosystem growth. Ethereum co-founder Anthony Di Iorio delivered a keynote address, offering his profound insights into the future trajectory of blockchain technology.
The Fem T3ch Happy Hour centered on empowering aspiring female entrepreneurs within the tech startup sector. Distinguished female tech professionals shared their experiences and discussed the unique challenges faced by businesswomen in their careers. Participants were also invited to the ETHWomen Hackathon during Canada Crypto Week, further emphasizing inclusivity in the tech space.
Toronto DAO, a decentralized community initiative aimed at building a virtual Toronto city hall, introduced T-Coin—a pioneering local digital currency designed to invigorate Toronto’s economy. The presentation highlighted the outcomes of the ETHToronto Hackathon and explored T-Coin’s potential benefits for the local economy, charitable initiatives, and broader financial inclusion.
Lastly, attendees at the exclusive Toronto Tech Fest Yacht Party enjoyed an unparalleled opportunity to discuss cryptocurrency while taking in the breathtaking Toronto skyline. This event was part of Bitget’s global Crypto Experience Month—a series of meetups focused on education in blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI). It provided a unique networking platform for innovators, founders, and venture capitalists against a scenic backdrop.
