On March 14, despite the general threat of coronavirus, Career Today conference, dedicated to the professional growth of IT specialists, took place in Minsk. Although the closure of borders in European countries prevented the presence of some speakers and participants, the conference nonetheless attracted more than 200 guests: developers, QA engineers, business executives, marketing specialists and representatives of other areas who are looking for opportunities to build a successful career in promising industry.

At the invitation of the organizers, Yuriy Navadvorski, CTO of IQeon project, delivered his speech at Career Today conference. He told about the possibilities of using blockchain technology in various fields from banking sector and gamedev to copyright and even electronic voting.

“In many areas where the usage of blockchain is possible, there are tools that successfully replace it at the moment. To implement this technology in electronic voting, land registry or copyright, state regulation is essential. Here we need a legislative base that would regulate the usage of distributed registry technology and give legal force to, for example, copyright objects that are entered into blockchain. Unless there is government support, it is less possible to significantly expand the application of this technology, ” – Yuriy explained to the audience.

Hot discussion erupted when discussing the benefits of blockchain over other tools. The conference audience was also interested in how widely distributed registry technology is used in Asian market.
