Global Digital Assets Vancouver Summit, co-hosted by Hibit Blockchain, ChainUP, Node Capital, and Golden Finance, was held in downtown Vancouver, BC, Canada. Conference attendance approached 1,000, and included nearly 100 professionals, from blockchain platform founders, technical leaders, experts, and scholars who delivered speeches and joined panel discussions.

Feng Han spoke at the event, saying, “Data will be owned by the individuals with blockchain technology. Elastos will become a digital asset platform. Bitcoin and Libra will price the individual’s data asset. Thus, we will enter a new wealth paradigm which will be defined by an economic explosion of native digital wealth at least as great as the wealth explosion produced by real estate privatization in China.”
