BTCPrague will bring leaders in the bitcoin community from throughout the world to the Czech capital, to map the future of digital currency. The largest bitcoin conference in Europe will be held from June 8 to June 10.
I had the opportunity to speak with Martin Kuchař, co-founder and co-organizer of BTC Prague, personally in Italy during a meeting about Lightning Network. It was a pleasure to talk about the organization of the event in Prague and the important occasion that this event represents for the entire international Bitcoin environment.
I will be present on site to document the event and gather information and opinions from all the insiders present. All will be documented on social media channels and on this blog. So stay tuned for the event.
A projected 10,000 attendees will have the opportunity to hear from and meet with more than 100 leaders in the BTC community and network with more than 100 companies. In addition to the speakers and exhibition space, many side events are planned, including dev/hack/day.

Martin Kuchař says:
We may be a small nation of only 10 million, but the Czechs have been leading the way to financial freedom through Bitcoin from the very beginning. The first BTC mining pool, SlushPool, Trezor, the first hardware wallet, and bip39, used to create encryption keys for hardware wallets, were all developed here. We are also the home of the world’s largest BTC ATM manufacturer, General Bytes, the world’s first mining device custom firmware by Braiins, and Tropic Square, the first open-source transparent secure chip that will be launched from here shortly. Our beautiful city is truly the bitcoin capital of Europe.
