MGT Capital Investments John McAfee to Speak at Blockchain: Money London

On November 6-7, Bitcoin.com is engaging in a two-day event that will focus on financial technology, the blockchain industry, cryptocurrency solutions, and how to apply these emerging technologies in the real world.

The Blockchain: Money Conference will be the first event of its kind, aimed at networking for innovators and industry executives at the gorgeous 155 Bishopsgate in London.

MGT Capital Investments CEO John McAfee said he is pleased to speak at the upcoming event. MGT has been progressively scaling its business with McAfee behind the helm. This includes diversifying the company into many fields including Bitcoin by launching a mining operation.

The firm recently secured a central Washington location to host its new mine, and has deployed hydroelectric power to run the data center.

Additionally, MGT has announced the launch of its Sentinel technology, bringing more value to the business. Sentinel is an anti-hacking product designed by white hackers that focuses on corporate hacking and enterprise intranets.

John McAfee stated during the Blockchain: Money Conference announcement:

The Blockchain will be central to nearly every aspect of cybersecurity, from wire transfers, to send and receive authentication, to secure voting systems. It will become the cornerstone of virtually all digital transactions
