FARMBIT HIGHLIGHTS
The meat of the conference for us was when we got the stage to present our project to the audience. It was an awe-inspiring moment when we shared the general concept of the farmbit project, the problems we are addressing and the general use cases for Farmbit.
In reception, we received a lot of inquiries from curious investors and community members, gave out copies of our FarmBit paper, made valuable business relationships and had significant interaction with several industry experts and project pioneers which las led to a series of profound partnerships which we would be announcing soon.
Overall, the conference was thrilling and we are super elated about the feedback we are getting about FarmBit. This has strengthened our resolve and motivated us to continue to build and refine FarmBit.
