Wow...and I mean Wow! Last night I attended a Dash sponsered crypto currency conference in Cancun Mexico. It was held at the Grand Oasis Cancun, Mexico. Since I started learning about crypto currency in September of last year I freely admit that this has been probably thee most influencially positive occurence in my life since 2005. I've relocated to Cancun and have been welcomed into the group known as the Bitcuners who organized this event. So thank you 
Hive account@jza for the invitation. Let me stick to the topic and share with you some pics on what transpired.
Just walking into the lobby is a treat...can anyone say "hanging gardens of Babylon?" Pretty impressive... from the valet service and all the staff that was there. This is a big hotel and I thought I was running late and finding where the event was going to be held would be a challenge but it was amazingly organized and found it easily.
I brought two friends with my 
Hive account@donnaincancun and her father Keith. (I have convinced Keith to sign up to Steemit so he will be on soon.)
There were three guest speakers at this conference and since joining Bitcuners my friend and fellow Steemian 
Hive account@luzcypher was asked to be a guest speaker. Well done, mate! Local business owners and alt-coin enthusiats were in attendance and a wide range of topics were discussed. Everything from Dash, Bitcoin and even Steem. The talks mainly focused on the advantages of a merchant adopting crypto currency into their businesses as a form of payment. One of Hive account@luzcypher's first questions was, "how many people here own a digital wallet or have heard of Bitcoin or any other digital currency?" I was surprised when only about 1/8th of around 50+ people raised their hands when Bitcoin was mentioned and only 5 or so hands were raised when answering about a digital wallet.
Informing these merchants was of vital importance and all the guest speakers did a superb job. Hive account@luzcypher spoke in english while the other speakers spoke in spanish. Unfortunately I only had my crappy LG cell phone and the majority of my pics are extremely crappy so I'll just post a few more...

Open bar before and after the event with a special bonus of receiving some free Dash to my wallet:-)
All in all it was a success as the conversations were all of a positive and of a constructive nature. I'm sure there will be more posts today with better quality photos of this wonderful event. Once again thank you Hive account@jza for the invitation and I now know that the age of new economy is here and I witnessed it's birth in Cancun, Mexico.
Excelsior!!!!!
