What is the “Global Litecoin Summit” in September?
September of 2018 promises to be an exciting time for the cryptocurrency community. Investors, developers, enthusiasts, and Cryptocurrency HODLER's alike are looking forward to this time frame for several different reasons. The Global Litecoin Summit is being held on the 14&15th of September. Ironically enough, the SEC has postponed a deadline for the decision on a current pending Bitcoin ETF until September 21st. This fall is shaping up to be a great time for the cryptocurrency investor, average or institutional alike. The Litecoin Summit alone is going to be a heavenly event with networking, brainstorming, and opportunities galore for anyone involved in the crypto space. Read on to see what this “Summit,” focused around Litecoin is all about.
September 14th, a day of history in the making
The Litecoin Summit is scheduled for Friday, and Saturday, of September 14th/15th, 2018. The two-day event being held at the South San Francisco Conference Center is keynoted by the Litecoin creator, none other than, Charlie Lee. Special guests speakers include Litecoin Foundation Director Xinxi Wang, Bill Barhydt, CEO & Founder ABRA, and Eric Brown Aliant Payments CEO, just to name a few. Friday is scheduled to be an all-day lecture based event with theater-style seating in the Grand Ballroom of the South San Francisco Conference Center.

Starting with registration at 8:00 am, Charlie Lee kicks off the event with his keynote speech at 10:00 am. Satoshilite is followed by the ABRA founder Bill Barhydt with a “Banking With Crypto” lecture from 10:45 - 11:30. Barhydt is known worldwide as an accomplished mobile/internet technologies guru and has a crazy resume consisting of the CIA, NASA, Netscape and Goldmann Sachs all as previous employers. His lecture “Banking With Crypto” is sure to be a mind-blowing event with his knowledge of integrating payment technologies unlike any other.
11:30
Following the ABRA CEO is an unnamed guest lecture TBA. We can only surmise who Charlies Lee has up his sleeve for this prime 11:30-12:00 time slot.
