Quote

“Charlotte has had all the right raw material to be one of the Financial Services Technology & Innovation (FinTech) hubs in the world for a number of years now. It’s really with the entrepreneurial renaissance in Charlotte over the last 5 years that Charlotte has come on strong in the international stage in FinTech. The choice of the Cryptolina conference to move to Charlotte is just such a natural fit. Crypto currencies (Bitcoin and others) are the future of payments and some of the best minds in the space will be gathering in Charlotte for this one.” – Dan Roselli, Co-Founder of Packard Place

This two-day event will focus on the emerging Bitcoin and digital currency industry, and last summer’s inaugural expo in Raleigh attracted over 350 digital currency developers, enthusiasts, investors and technologists from across the United States and World.” – Dan Spuller, Co-Founder of Cryptolina Bitcoin Expo
