1. Waves Ecosystem
Roadmap to Transformation
Sasha Ivanov
Founder and CEO of Waves Platform and Vostok

2. Blockchain as a Driver
of Digital Transformation Globally
Transition from WEB 2.0 to WEB 3.0
Decentralization as a prerequisite for transition to WEB 3.0
A strong need for tools and platforms that enable decentralization
WEB 3.0
Scalable DLT AI IOT Regulation

3. Open vs Closed Blockchains
Open blockchains can be considered Proof of Concept for decentralization
However, the reality, namely the implementation of decentralized systems, does not match up to the theory
Closed (permissioned) blockchains could be the solution to current business needs
Merging both systems is a key to ensuring global decentralization without compromising security
