Biarritz in the colours of Bitcoin for 3 days

Organised by French startup StackinSat, the must-attend event of the summer will welcome both beginners and experienced bitcoiners for a plethora of activities, all dedicated to the king of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin.
A must-attend event to discover Bitcoin from every angle or to refine your knowledge on a specific subject concerning it, Surfin’ Bitcoin will meet the expectations of all types of profiles.
Through a series of conferences under the sun of the south of France, more than 80 speakers will follow one another on two stages: a general one for the general public and one dedicated to industry professionals and the most knowledgeable about Bitcoin. Indeed, the mission of the organiser StackinSat is clear: to make Bitcoin accessible to everyone by educating and informing as many people as possible.
New in 2022, twenty journalists will take turns on a TV set for special broadcasts live on BFM Business.
