Driving Mass Adoption of Ethereum

Transcript

our first speaker from engine coin is Simon Curtin a guru if I got that right he is the VP of Marketing at engine coin and he's gonna teach he's gonna show us how we're gonna drive mass adoption of a cerium and I'll let you take it away thank you very much hi everyone my name is Simon I'm the VP

of Marketing at engine and I'm absolutely honored to have this opportunity to share some of my thoughts about how we can take this etherium movement to the next frontier this is actually my first speech ever and I'm especially nervous speaking to a room of geniuses so please bear with me I'm so glad that works I'd like to congratulate our CTO VTech Radomski who just got married via a mutually science smart contract a marriage smart contract that is now live on the etherium main name they even gave each other non fungible tokens of their love along and along with two other couples they have now

made their love and commitment to each other immutable it's a truly beautiful thing so let's give these six crypto lovebirds a massive round of applause [Applause] thank you and truth is I believe etherium can change the world forever it can eradicate corruption provide sovereignty for all and democratize the economy unfortunately if that's all it can do I'm scared that it might not succeed these words are too detached from the everyday lives of everyday people for aetherium to achieve mass adoption it needs to appeal to everyone

we need to meet them where they are and then lead them forward into the future it's imperative that we all learn how to define a core benefit because decentralization alone is not one for example thanks to a theory ins decentralization transparency and immutability the engine platform is possibly one of the most transformative game development tools in the whole world so far independent game developers have used our community building crowdfunding and monetization techniques

to cumulatively tract tens of thousands of community members raise over half a million dollars in crowdfunding and generate thousands of dollars in monthly revenue before even releasing their games this has allowed them to build the games of their dreams on their own terms without having to sign creative control over to higher authorities in this true-to-life example decentralization transparency and immutability are not benefits they are tools community building crowdfunding and monetization are not benefits either they are features attracting thousands of users and

raising hundreds of thousands of dollars and not even benefits their results but the fact that these game developers can gain proper funding to build the games of their dreams on their own terms that is a core benefit and that makes me proud to represent engine the fact that our tools can also thanks to aetherium eradicate corruption provides sovereignty for all and democratize the gaming economy is at its core what we do stand for at engine but if that was the core of our messaging there is no way we would have hundreds of developers building software with our platform within one month of releasing it to the public we need to assimilate into the existing economy and effectuate change

from within for ordinary people blockchain has been too complicated to use too theoretical to adopt it's time to show them and it's time to show them an easy way and prove that it works we need to speak to their hearts and not just their minds engines tools allow developers to create and integrate assets into games websites apps and software built for the masses while leveraging the power of the blockchain to create truly valuable ecosystems around those platforms by allowing developers to fully integrate decentralize assets using their native programming languages we make this technology available to twenty six

million of the world's developers what's really cool is thanks to the transparency of aetherium and the meticulous standardization of the ERC 11:55 token standard that our blockchain assets are created from the tokens these developers create with our platform are fully interoperable between different websites apps games and any piece of software you can think of from VR to AI to robotics the potential use cases are limitless and they can seamlessly integrate into each other imagine going to watch Avengers endgame in the cinema in a couple of weeks and using your engine wallet to scan your ticket and

automatically receive a free Iron Man token on your mobile phone then you return home turn on your xbox and jump into a game like fortnight and the game reads your blockchain inventory and gives you an Iron Man suit to wear in-game then you turn off your turn off you can turn off your Xbox and turn on your PC and log in to another game like apex legends and that game also reads your blockchain inventory and the same token allows you to fly like Iron Man in two different games this is mind boggling has never been possible it's transformative for not only the games industry but the entire software development industry then you can turn off your PC flip on your virtual reality

glasses and the VR app also reads your blockchain inventory shows you an artificially intelligent Tony Stark hanging out next to you he talks to you he you talk back he seems really rich you're very impressed it's just like the real thing next you want to show off all of these assets so you send your friend your blockchain address and he checks out your inventory on the nginx blockchain Explorer he can see that you have this Tony Stark token and he he's heard that it's just epic in VR so he wants to buy it off you by the way I just want to clarify we don't have any partnership pending with Marvel so he wants to buy it off you and you place it

for sale on the nginx marketplace that's coming soon he pays you in engine coin or any cryptocurrency and Marvel actually receives an automatic transaction fee straight to their blockchain address allowing them to share in the profit you just made for your peer-to-peer trade the cryptocurrency the engine coin appears in your engine wallet a few minutes later you can then trade it for aetherium or hundreds of other cryptocurrencies without even leaving your wallet shoutout to Kaiba Network who helped us with that you can also use that aetherium to buy a playstation call an uber or buy a hamburger through the huge number of cryptocurrency payment options already available this is not some distant reality the engine ecosystem

makes this level of interoperability possible right now we just need more apps more websites more games more innovators to deliver this technology to more users in the same way that the blockchain makes Bitcoin valuable it can also make your decentralized assets valuable by authenticating their identity validating your ownership over them and confirming their total supplier among other things we are on the verge of something incredible and if you were a software designer who wants to build the platform of your dreams on your terms without giving up any creative control come see me or send me an email and let's have a chat I'm absolutely

certain we can find a way for the engine platform and the etherium blockchain to serve you using our platform your blockchain assets can be minted and distributed within hours and they can be natively integrated into your software within days your users will have their most treasured possessions possessions protected within the most feature packed secure mobile wallet in the world the engine wallet your community will be able to browse search authenticate and share their decentralized assets through our intuitive blockchain Explorer nginx and also any other blockchain Explorer or wallet that chooses to adopt ERC 11 fifty-five Altos alive they're ready for

adoption and we vow to do everything we can to push this movement forward I look around and I see a scene that is just bursting with talent and that engine we welcome innovation with open arms great and small we encourage everyone to use aetherium for smart contracts and the engine platform for blockchain assets you can reinvent the wheel or you can come and use ours it's already rolling we have the momentum and we're never going to stop we have spent years working through weekends sacrificing holidays missing our families on Christmas and it was all worth it we are now standing at the brink of mass adoption and we are calling on all innovators to help push past this tipping point so all of you in

this room who never stopped building and never stop believing thank you so much for your service I predict that within two years the whole world will truly understand what we've done you may have also seen some of these free collectible banners have the front and around the UM the area I'd like to show you what you can actually win by scanning that QR code with the engine wallet this is a collaboration between engine and ed con as you can as you can see it's a non fungible AR c 1155 token there's only one thousand in supply and there will never be any more

and it actually has a hidden discount code that will allow you to gain a discount for your next year at ed con this obviously has a lot of practical applications for retail in fact any customer facing industry that wants to be able to reach their customers through visually accessible advertising this next item here is one of my favorites his name is Mike his legendary rock star obviously he's also a non fungible ERC 11:55 token there's only there's a there's going to be a lot of him because we're giving him to every

developer the adopts our platform but right now there's only 530 hot lers of him an amazing thing about him is that there are 29 games integrating him into their experiences so as a gamer you're going to be able to jump from game to game and as long as your mic is in your blockchain address and that blockchain address is linked to that game Mike will be waiting for you and you will be able to experience a persistent reality that that moves between worlds we call it the multiverse this is actually my favorite item it's called the Aeon clip ski it's going to be super high supplier but the key is it creates

this this persistent experience that's really easy to integrate into multiple games websites apps platforms it's all about unlocking a special area or a special chest we have this chest called the prime a circle chest and this key allows you to access that but other games are using it in different ways sometimes you can access a whole level that other people can't experience when they don't have this key people are using this in really really creative ways so if you do happen to win this just because it doesn't have very much engine in it I wouldn't you know throw it away one thing you might notice is that all of these items are backed by engine meaning that you can actually melt the items down effectively destroy them and take the engine point out of it

so I want to humbly thank you so much for your time it's been an incredible experience learning from you all I have to admit most of it went over my head but I'm it's it's really uplifting knowing that I'm this movement is is moving and it's moving fast and it's just an honor to be part of it thank you [Applause]
