PARIS, France, March 5th, 2024/Chainwire/--**Uniting Web3 Visionaries and Global Leaders. Following the success of its 2023 edition, the Proof of Talk summit, heralded as the Davos of Web3, is back for its second year and brings together thought leaders, investors, CEOs, founders, exchanges, digital asset managers, and regulatory authorities for networking and thought-provoking sessions. Held on 10 and 11 June at the historic Museum of Decorative Arts in the Louvre Palace at the heart of Paris, this summit has its sights on delivering a unique event with a highly-curated audience dedicated to shaping the future of blockchain and global policy. Last year, Proof of Talk welcomed over 1500 ecosystem participants, including key figures from Binance, VanEck, Ripple, and the World Economic Forum, alongside CEOs and founders of leading blockchain companies and government representatives. After the event distinguished investor, venture partner, and Proof of Talk attendee Leeor Groen, Managing Director, Spartan Group, aptly noted that it was “where Web3 meets the spirit of Davos.” The summit facilitated crucial discussions on rebuilding trust within Web3, reflecting the industry's need for a platform that encourages genuine engagement, meaningful connections, and strategic collaboration. With the SEC’s recent spot Bitcoin ETF approvals and the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation bringing more clarity to the space in Europe, the stage is truly set for widespread blockchain adoption and development of digital assets beyond cryptocurrency. This year’s conference harnesses and reflects this revitalization and will assemble blockchain and Web3 professionals from around the world to engage with C-level executives, explore partnerships, and generate investment opportunities that will reshape industries and create new paradigms. The highly-curated 2024 forum seeks to welcome over 2500 participants. Combined with a speaker lineup featuring CEOs, founders, and leaders of the Web3 and digital assets industry, the summit features impact-focused networking and a refined agenda. A few of the speakers include: ·     Joseph Lubin CEO and Founder at Consensys ·     Jenny Johnson, CEO, Franklin Templeton ·     Tim Draper, Founder, DFJ ·     Ophelia Snyder, Cofounder President, Ark 21 Shares ·     Mihailo Bjelic, Co-Founder, Polygon ·     Raoul Pal, Crypto Macro Economist ·     Yat Siu, Chairman, Animoca ·     John Wu, President, Ava Labs ·     Justin Sun, Founder, Tron ·     Marieke Flament, former CEO, Near Foundation ·     Dominic Williams, Founder, DFINITY ·     Björn Wagner, CEO, Parity technologies and Polkadot ·     Jon Fink Isaksen, Head of Policy, Uniswap ·     Matthew Siegel, Head of Digital Assets, Van Eck ·     Christopher Donovan, COO, NEAR Foundation ·     Lex Sokolin, Managing Partner, Generative Ventures ·     Digital asset leads from over 30 major TradFi banks ·     Partners from 100+ attending VCs The summit’s agenda also actively reflects Web3’s growing importance, with over 20 panels, 10+ workshops, and over five keynotes and firesides on key topics shaping Web3’s future. These include real world asset tokenization, AI-blockchain integration, gaming evolution, and smart contract security. Zohair Dehnadi, Co-Founder, Proof of Talk and Partner, X-Ventures: “We are overwhelmed by the positive feedback we received from our 2023 summit, with some attendees even sharing it reminded them of the World Economic Forum’s early days. We’re also delighted at all the interest from both speakers and potential sponsors for this year’s edition. “Right now, the industry is on the brink of a new era, and we’ve harnessed this enthusiasm to curate an event with the most influential people from Web3, digital assets, and traditional finance to shape the agenda of the future.” It’s important to provide an inspirational forum for these players, from founders and funds to legal experts and regulatory authorities, to engage in high-impact networking, share best practices, and have those necessary but tough discussions that will safely move the space forward. I’m proud to offer the industry such an exclusive experience at one of Paris’ most iconic locations, and am looking forward to seeing everyone in June!” About Proof of Talk Proof of Talk is setting a new standard in the Web3 conference landscape, positioning itself not just as another web3 conference but as a pivotal forum where the promise of decentralization comes to life. The summit uniquely combines the essence of traditional economic forums with the dynamic, decentralized Web3 community, fostering an innovative ecosystem of dialogue and action. It stands as a platform for change, where every voice, from the seasoned economist to the radical Web3 founder, contributes to a collective vision of a decentralized economic future.

Here’s the interview with Mr. Miro to discuss Wallet Factory's meteoric rise as a leading provider of digital wallet solutions, the key factors behind the company's impressive growth, and his vision for the future of the payments industry. Fresh off the heels of this major achievement, the CEO opened up about the company's foundational principles, his personal leadership style that has driven their product innovation and market success, and why he believes Wallet Factory has cemented itself as a startup to watch in the ever-evolving fintech ecosystem.

Wallet Factory is a one-stop embedded finance solutions provider for ambitious, forward-thinking businesses across developing markets in Africa, MENA, and LatAm. The company helps capitalize on innovative FinTech opportunities like digital wallets, personalized loyalty rewards, B2B payment services, financial marketplace, and open banking. Our mission is to facilitate the transition from a "Cash Heavy" to a "Cash Lite" society, aiming to include unbanked citizens into the financial system through our clients. We offer a unique 3-in-1 digital wallet platform that enables banks to serve the unbanked and underbanked segments, fostering financial inclusion and accessibility for those who have not yet had access to traditional banking services. What sets you apart from the competition? We have succeeded in developing all-purpose digital wallets that go bundled with personalized loyalty rewards. Our innovative Wallet and Rewards platforms not only provide digital financial services but also instill long-lasting customer loyalty to engage and retain earlier and newly acquired audiences. Through personalized rewards and secure and user-friendly interfaces, we strive to make payment services easily accessible and attractive, even for non-tech-savvy and picky end customers.

Wallet Factory's team is comprised of dedicated professionals with a shared passion for enabling financial inclusion through digital financial services. The team's collective expertise and experience in the financial industry, coupled with their commitment to creating innovative FinTech solutions, uniquely position Wallet Factory to address the challenge of fostering financial accessibility and inclusion for unbanked and underbanked populations. If you weren’t building your startup, what would you be doing? Personally, I would likely be working in a leading position in the international banking field, continuing to contribute to the financial industry and helping people access digital financial services. Speaking of Wallet Factory, if it wasn't focused on its current mission, the company would likely be engaged in developing and providing other innovative FinTech solutions to address various challenges in the financial industry, with a continued emphasis on fostering financial inclusion and accessibility for underserved populations. At the moment, how do you measure success? What are your core metrics? As of today, our executives and analysts measure success by the number of end customers using our digital wallet and loyalty rewards platforms, as well as the growth of our clients' revenue streams. Our core metrics include user engagement, customer retention, and the expansion of our services in emerging markets. What goals are you looking forward to accomplishing in 2024? In 2024, we aim to further expand our presence in emerging markets and help more banks and non-banking financial institutions serve the unbanked and underbanked segments. We also plan to enhance our digital wallet and loyalty rewards platforms with new features and integrations to better meet the needs of our clients and their customers. Which trend(s) are you most excited about in 2024? Share your reasons. We are excited about the continued growth and adoption of digital wallets and mobile payment services, as well as the potential for increased collaboration between banks and FinTech companies to drive financial inclusion and accessibility. 2023 had been another crazy year, especially in tech, with layoffs and the Generative AI takeover! Which trend are you most concerned about? Be as brief or as detailed as you like. We are most concerned about the potential for increased competition in the digital wallet and FinTech space, which could lead to a saturated market and challenges in differentiating our offerings from those of other companies. One of the most promising trends I’d like to mention is the adoption of AI, as you have deftly put it in your question. I’m definite about the fact that this trend will likely bring more personalized solutions to end customers in 2024, driving greater user experiences and brand loyalty. Share your biggest success so far and/or your biggest failure so far. Our biggest success so far has been the launch of over 25 revenue-generating eWallet and customer loyalty projects in 12 countries across 5 continents, with over 4.5M end customers worldwide. One of the biggest challenges our team has ever experienced was the difficulty in penetrating certain markets due to ongoing regulatory challenges and the need for more localized solutions. Fortunately, we’ve learned a lot from that lesson and now can easily tailor our digital wallet and loyalty rewards platforms to the business specifics of any industry or region. We would love your feedback on HackerNoon as a tech publication! How has your experience been with us? Our experience with HackerNoon has been more than positive, as we have been able to share our insights and expertise on digital wallets and FinTech trends with a wide audience of tech enthusiasts and businesses.
