Mr Stefan Oosterwaal, active in the restaurant business in Aruba, gave an introduction to the cryptocurrencies in general and more specifically on Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Mr Bruce Harms, policy advisor at the Ministry of Labor, Energy and Integration, explained the importance of education in coding for the Aruban children. Coding is the basis for the crypto currency technology and also the blockchain technology.
Mr Rendell de Kort, economist consultant, guided a discussion in which the crypto currencies are placed in a broader perspective: what is the optimal currency for a country, what about the supervision over cryptocurrencies and crypto currencies as a means for inclusion.
