Benjamin Leff, Jacob Pouncey & Joe Blackburn on the Future of Cryptocurrency

Check out The Future of Cryptocurrency Panel Discussion featuring Benjamin Leff, Jacob Pouncey, and Joe Blackburn from this year's Crypto Current Conference!

Benjamin Leff is an expert token sale community manager with experience growing and managing large online communities across multiple social media channels. Founder of Leff Ventures, Ben is highly knowledgeable in creating grassroots excitement for new blockchain investments by leveraging years of experience building extensive industry relationships. Ben is a firm believer in the power of creating a project around the needs of the community which varies from the traditional business model in the blockchain world; this comes from his experience in consulting several ICO/blockchain projects from Mauritius to the United States to Vietnam and the UAE. From volunteering as a Global Ambassador for Liquid Exchange to co-hosting the Houston Bitcoin Meetup with over 2,700 local members, Ben believes that mass adoption lies in the hands of the community at-large.

Jacob Pouncey is the go-to crypto guy at Saxo Bank. He informs the organization and its clients on the rise of this entirely new asset class. He is pursuing a masters degree in Management of Innovation and Business Development at Copenhagen Business School. He enjoys applying his previous work experience and academic knowledge to the Blockchain space in his current role. He believes that blockchain represents the most significant advancement in network technologies since the internet. Most transactions that currently take place and future transactions over a digital medium will be done on top of blockchain technology. We had the pleasure of having Jacob on our podcast where we discussed crypto projects he is watching and the future of cryptocurrency.

Joe Blackburn is currently the President and Co-Founder of Crypto Coin Trader. Joe has been involved with many projects within blockchain and the cryptocurrency space. The explosion of cryptocurrencies since his introduction in 2014, has allowed him to catapult the momentum into the soon to be released website. Social Media, Community Management and Community Engagement have been at the forefront of Joe’s expertise in the blockchain space."
