Speaker Abstract: Solving Global Internet Inequality With The PKT Network
Often, residents living in well-developed nations and cosmopolitan cities do not consider ‘internet-deserts’ and other hindrances that underdeveloped and emergent countries regularly face when it comes to internet availability, stability and quality. Consistently, access to the internet, more importantly, the world is only indulged by those who can afford the costly service, often monopolized by ISPs and communication conglomerates.
Customarily, residents of rural areas in developed nations encounter similar dilemmas as select groups create internet monopolies preventing fair access to a network that connects our globalized world. However, mesh networks like PKT use blockchain to remedy internet inequality by allowing individual users to trade their unused bandwidth for a PKT token that can later be exchanged for PKT Cash and creating a mesh network by leveraging excess internet to be shared with those nearby and far away. PKT is on the path to create internet by the people for the people all the while, remaining a fully decentralized ecosystem on the blockchain that is open-source, not attached to a single entity, has no coin premine and most importantly, no shareholders to please and attest to.
As a Founding Community Member of PKT Jesse Berger has been with the project since it’s very inception and interested to speak about how blockchain is the key to the future of the new Internet via mesh networks as well as PKT’s ambition and measured progress to eliminate the global discrepancy of Internet access.

Alex Petrov, former CIO at Bitfury, did us the honor of speaking at AIBC Summit this November 2021. During the main stage event for Blockchain & The Economy, Alex discussed the topic ? Facts & Myths of Bitcoin Mining ?
The keynote happened right before the fireside chat between Bitcoin legend Michael Saylor and blockchain, investor and entrepreneur Mike Costache.
The conversation was hosted by the bitcoin mining solution GMT on November 17, 2021, as part of the AIBC Summit in Malta.
Saylor’s personal crypto holdings currently amount to 17,732 BTC (worth $1 billion.) Furthermore, his publicly-traded company MicroStrategy was the first to buy bitcoin for its balance sheet less than two years ago. Mike Costache called Saylor a “saviour” for the announcement of that first major purchase of 21,454 bitcoins for $250 million. It was in the middle of the pandemic, and Bitcoin was trading in the low $11,000 range. Currently, MicroStrategy holds 114,042 BTC (worth $6.8 billion.) During the fireside chat, Michael confirmed that more companies are now following his lead and predicted that this trend will continue.
He illustrated his advice by suggesting that the attempts to exploit the crypto volatility should be left to professional traders, “With regard to any dominant network, for example, if you bought Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, if you bought bitcoin, the only mistake that you can ever make as an investor is to sell them.
The richest man in the world is still owning the stock that he owned twenty years ago or ten years ago. You don’t get rich by selling or trading. The way you get rich is by predicting the future and then buying the piece of the future and just holding it forever.”
The conversation also touched on the future of crypto in general. Michael named digital energy and digital property as by far the biggest opportunity in crypto and predicted its growth from a trillion dollars on Bitcoin to a hundred trillion dollars, and potentially, five hundred trillion dollars.

However, he also warned against fixating on the revolutionary aspects of crypto preaching, such as replacing governments and existing institutional structures with new crypto-based concepts: “That’s a beautiful dream, but I don’t think it’s going to happen in the next decade, and it might distract you from the evolutionary opportunity.”
While accentuating the evolutionary side of the blockchain potential, Saylor’s view on it is borderline revolutionary when he compares Bitcoin with the invention of electricity. “I look at where we are today, and it’s kind of like 1900 with electricity.
You’ve invented this electricity. You know you can put electricity into houses, and cars, and boats, and appliances. Some people are afraid of it, someone burned their house down with it, someone got shot by it, and the mathematics is kind of complicated. But you know it’s going to change the world. I feel the same way about digital energy. Bitcoin’s digital energy is going to change every government, every company. It’s going to change every family.”
He did it again, just a few tweets on canine coins later and startled Musk-fans are depreciating the fairly fresh Shiba Inu coin. The dog coins Doge, Baby Doge and Shiba Inu are closely associated with the PayPal-founder, with his opinions having measurable impact on these specific currencies and also beyond. A big bummer for SHIB was the dry statement that he wasn’t holding any of it. It is yet another example how online influencing can heavily drive or diminish stock value.
Many fellow Twitter users started asking about other coins, to which Musk countered he were only holding Bitcoin, Ethereum and Doge. Out of curiosity, he stated, opining that true value is built through products and services, not any form of money.
At the same time, Musk has interacted with the team behind Doge several times in the past to increase its blockchain efficiency. When speaking with his followers, he named the most important factors to tackle are lowering fees, decreasing block time and increasing block size, as well as moving the blockchain to a single layer network.

Brian McGinty is the Marketing Manager and Founding Leader of the company CryptoPerformance. He has more than 20 years in sales and marketing. He has worked Internationally in Financial, Property, Insurance, and Blockchain. Six years in the Crypto space and a founding member of CryptoPerformance.
CryptoPerformance is a crypto blockchain and tech platform run by a team of crypto experts dedicated to sharing their knowledge with the world and greatly expanding the crypto ommunity.
The crypto community is growing too slowly. That was the main reason why CryptoPerformance was born. Another reason is that after many successful ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings) and the subsequent listing of the coins at the exchanges the respective Coin is strongly neglected by the community. Because everyone is only fixated on the price of the coin, the belief in it is lost. However, as the community continues to grow, so does the price. And rightly so! Because as soon as a coin is listed on different exchanges, the company behind it usually has no further information about the further course. Thus, the most important point is neglected: the expansion of the community by the individual coin owners. Every effort is worth building the community, no matter how big it was at the beginning. But since such a structure requires a lot of time and effort and at this moment still brings no money, it is probably the reason why many are slowly distancing themselves from this task. “After all, you have to make money every day.” This is meant to be very short term.
