About the Expo
THE 2022 MIT BITCOIN
EXPO WILL BE AT MIT ON MAY 7TH AND 8TH!
2021 has been a transformative year for Bitcoin and distributed ledger technology (DLT) as a whole. It was a year marked with many new milestones. We saw the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender in the history of the world.
We had the launch of the first Bitcoin ETF to trade in the United States. We also finally experienced the activation of Taproot, Bitcoin’s long-anticipated soft-fork with a focus on enhancing the network’s privacy and security.
