ABOUT


WELCOME TO 2022!

Suits & Sneakers is so excited to be able to host in-person events again and we'd like to invite you to this special event which will be hosted at The Tryst (the new home of Suits & Sneakers). On the evening of Thursday, 3 February 2022, Mark Sham will be hosting a beginner's guide to the world of cryptocurrencies.


WHY ARE WE LAUNCHING THE YEAR SPEAKING ABOUT CRYPTOCURRENCIES?

At the end of every year, we take a lot of time to think about what theme is best to lead with in the new year, and this time around, we couldn't think of a more fitting topic than a beginner's guide to Cryptocurrencies. We are now 13 years into the cryptocurrency revolution despite many predictions over the years that this industry would collapse and die. This simply hasn't happened though and if anything, crypto is starting to achieve some form of mainstream status.


So here's our take on it. If you're an avid crypto fan then we are already preaching to the choir. But if you're on the fence, or even vehemently against crypto, we still believe it to be worth your while to join us and understand the world of crypto in greater detail.


WHAT TOPICS WILL BE DISCUSSED ON THE NIGHT?

Join Mark Sham as he gives you a simple explanation of why he believes this new world will continue to thrive, and why you need to take the topic of cryptocurrencies more seriously. Mark will not only share snippets of his crypto journey, but will also take some time to delve into the history of money, and also the current financial system. There may even be a few secret guest speakers on the night!



  • Short history of money
  • A base overview of the current financial system 
  • How a blockchain works
  • History of Bitcoin
  • The birth of smart contracts
  • How crypto has evolved in the last two years
  • Why the world of NFTs is about more than art!
  • What are Decentralised Autonomous Organisation (DAOs) and what will their impact be in the business world?
  • The world of DeFi (decentralised finance) is already changing finance
  • How we believe crypto will impact society moving forward
  • How to get started and buy your first token
  • How to securely store your tokens


WILL THIS EVENT BE RECORDED?

We will be using this live event to record Mark's keynote and then will premiere the keynote online a day or two after the event! We only have 200 seats available.


Join Mark Sham for his keynote called "Sovereign Individual" and get a greater understanding of the world of cryptocurrencies, and how it will impact your life in the future!
