The 2nd Global Graphene Blockchain Developers Conference opened at the Grand Kempinski hotel in Shanghai on July 6-7, 2019.This conference is organized by Graphene Blockchain Application Center (GBAC, http://gbacenter.org/ ), co-organized by Bitwires and LiChang, sponsored by Bitshares, Cocos-BCX, AEX, Newdex, Lucia, KEO and other well-known blockchain projects. This conference aims to enhance communication between projects developed by the underlying technology of graphene, and it makes developers know about Graphene Blockchain and join the graphene ecology.



This conference has conducted in-depth discussions around Graphene-related projects and applications, with 50+ famous project, 40+ media, 20+ exchanges and 20+ investment institutions attending. The panel discussion include difference mainstream blockchain technology schools such as POW, POS, DPOS, PBFT etc. Star projects such as BitShares, Cocos-BCX, GXChain and NULS are all on display. Technological speeches like cross-chain, blockchain interoperability, trusted computing, etc. discussing hot topics with every audience.

Jerry LIU, Chairman of Graphene Blockchain Application Center (GBAC), committee member of Bitshares, begin this conference with opening speech and wonderful sharing.
