The Summit lured a variety of influencers and entrepreneurs from across the globe, each from distinct backgrounds with different perspectives on the trajectory of Litecoin and the space as a whole. Athletes went toe-to-toe on the ‘Sport, Crypto and Litecoin’ panel Though the panelists were from varied professional sports backgrounds, they shared a common passion: bringing the worlds of sport and cryptocurrency closer together, The panel included the NFL’s Garrick Jones, former UFC fighter, Ben Askren, and WWE legend, Danielle Moinet.

One of the more familiar names in trading, John Bollinger - inventory of the ‘Bollinger Band’ - gave the audience much more than a lesson in technical analysis. The pioneer trader debunked  misconceptions about cryptocurrency and posited why he believed Litecoin had more potential than almost any other currency (not just crypto!). Bollinger cited Litecoin as one of the “three biggest crypto trading vehicles” in the world. He also emphasized that “cryptocurrency is given a bad name, as not a real asset - but that’s absolute baloney”. Especially as Bollinger sees cryptocurrency - and digital assets - as a viable replacement for fiat currency in the future.

Charlie also discussed some of the initiatives the Litecoin Foundation had undertaken in order to improve the ‘accessibility’ and ‘awareness’ of Litecoin, including mainstream coverage - from CNBC to Fox News - and the tremendous statistics achieved through strategic partnerships, namely PayPal, Moneygram, the Litecoin VISA and Mastercard deals and the ability to purchase Litecoin at global ATMs.
