​Speakers and Agenda

​
Panel 1: Pitching the Builders: How Do Ecosystems Support OpenFi?
As the backbone of OpenFi, blockchain ecosystems like Solana, NEAR, Avalanche and Stellar will be pivotal in supporting the development and scaling of OpenFi applications. This panel will explore how these ecosystems provide the foundational infrastructure for OpenFi, from security and scalability to developer resources.

​Panel 2: Building the Legal Fabric of OpenFi
As OpenFi bridges the gap between DeFi and TradFi, establishing a flexible yet compliant legal framework will be critical. Experts on this panel will discuss regulatory standards, exploring how self-custody and open-source principles can coexist with security and compliance.

​Panel 3: How Will an Open Source Financial System Shape Up?
As we saw in other industries like software and hardware, the future of finance should be open source, with a modular, user-driven structure. This panel will explore how decentralized, community-driven projects might create an accessible ecosystem with lower costs for both builders and consumers.

​
Panel 4: Scaling to One Million Users and Beyond
With ambitions to expand to a global user base, successful OpenFi projects will need to prioritize user experience and accessibility. Industry experts will share strategies for scaling OpenFi to millions.

​
Panel 5: How Do We Make Money Here?
To support the growth of OpenFi, sustainable and user-aligned revenue models will be essential. This panel will dive into future monetization strategies, from transaction-based fees to innovative revenue streams unique to decentralized platforms.

​
Panel 6: Mapping the Latam OpenFi Ecosystem
Latin America is poised to become a hotspot for OpenFi innovation due to rapid digital adoption and unique financial needs. This panel will project the growth of the Latam OpenFi ecosystem, spotlighting potential collaborations and opportunities in the region.
