London in the autumn hums with hope and possibility, and it also freezes off anything you forgot to cover up! At the London Blockchain Conference, the promise of scalable blockchains is on everyone’s radar, and you can feel it in the room for the BSV loyalists and the new friends we have made from across the blockchain ecosystem. Cameras click, stage lights bloom, and you can hear the low murmur of developers, influencers, miners, and other entrepreneurs planning the next big thing. Between interviews and impromptu chats, I felt part of a living organism, one that stretches from the big stage to the quiet corners where ideas are born.
This video captures those moments as they happened, and I hope my words will make you feel like you were there with me. Elfried Samba on personal branding is larger than life when he steps in front of the camera, but what makes him compelling is his thoughtfulness. We sat down in a quiet corner, where we spoke about how creators can use social media to build trust and tell authentic stories. Ana Grijalva from the United Nations discussed how blockchain can bridge old-world values with new-school tech, particularly in communications and education.
Her perspective reminded me that beyond the buzzwords, people in developing regions need solutions that are inclusive and respectful.

Our conversation in the video includes clips of us laughing, gestures punctuated by the chatter of people rushing past us to the next session. If the conference were a ship, these people would be its engine room. Why events like this still matter.
In an age when webinars and virtual meetups abound, it’s tempting to ask why we still gather in person. The answer is simple: trust and serendipity. Building on BSV is not just about code, but about people seeing each other’s eyes, hearing tone, and feeling the handshake. At the London Blockchain Conference, you can taste the tension of a live demo about to start and sense the relief when it goes smoothly. Momentum comes from these collisions. While online spaces keep us connected, they don’t replicate the feeling of walking into a crowded room and knowing that any conversation could change the direction of your company. Events like LBC remind us that innovation is a social act. The video we’ve released is a capsule of those memories, a way to bring you into the corridors and onto the stages that made up my experience. Until then, know that you’re invited to the next event. Come shake my hand, join a debate about scaling, or just enjoy a cup of coffee with a few hundred friends. I’ll be there, and I’d love to say hello.
