The world is entering a new era of technology where artificial intelligence and smart cities can no longer be considered concepts in science fiction movies. These emerging technologies, which also include Web3.0, IPv6 and the metaverse, have become possible through blockchain technology.
Bitcoin, the first successful digital currency, is actually the first functioning implementation of blockchain technology and all succeeding cryptocurrencies are built on a blockchain. But blockchain is not limited to digital currencies. Its utility as a foundation for other use cases far exceeds what it can do for digital currencies.
For instance, IPv6 is the latest version of the Internet Protocol that allows for the generation of an almost unlimited number of IP addresses. This means that each individual and machine connected to the Internet will have its own unique IP address. This will not only allow law enforcement agencies to track criminals more easily, but it will also facilitate true peer-to-peer communication.
Combining IPv6 with a scalable blockchain, which permits the on-demand increase of throughput as measured in transactions per second (TPS) and data block size, raises the level of efficiency and extent of utility of IPv6. It also allows for data sovereignty, meaning users will own the rights to their data and control how they are used. With this, IPv6 and blockchain have the possibility to usher in the new age of the Internet.
The combination of IPv6 and blockchain is just one example of what a scalable blockchain can do to improve and innovate current digital systems and processes of both the public and private sectors. Blockchain can also play a great part in the global digitalization of all types of records.

Although blockchain is gaining momentum as a ground-breaking technology, awareness still needs to spread, misinformation has to be corrected, and a place has to be provided for business leaders and visionaries to meet and network. These are all necessary in order to hasten the development and release of other emerging technologies. And these goals are the foundation of the London Blockchain Conference.
To be held at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in London on May 31 to June 2, the London Blockchain Conference provides a venue for industry leaders, government agencies, start-ups, investors, innovators and enthusiasts to gather, network and learn.
With over 100 speakers and keynote presenters, all experts in their respective fields, attendees will not only gain extremely useful knowledge about the correct way to innovate blockchain and maximize its potential, but they will also be able to create meaningful connections that will prove to be valuable in business and technological strategies.
This premier three-day event will have two simultaneous stages that will cater to both business-oriented individuals, as well as technically inclined professionals like developers. Stage 1 is the business strategy stage, while Stage 2 is the technical stage. This provides a well-balanced flow of information that attendees can surely benefit from.
Those interested in attending the London Blockchain Conference may register here. For those who cannot make it to London, the conference will be livestreamed on its website.
