Congrats to @leonjohnson on @advbitcoin. The Bitcoin scene in London 2018 was an embarrassment of s***coins, ICOs and misinformation. To have a technical Bitcoin conference 2 years later with the caliber of international speakers and attendees that @advbitcoin had is amazing.

Really enjoying @StepanSnigirev’s talk about how our coins are never really safe. #AdvancingBitcoin
