The Network Effect
We were skeptics, then curious, then learners and then converts.
We now focus on helping others grow in the Web 3.0 space.
This is about a new technology, not a new currency.
In MENA, 50% of people are under 25 years of age.
They are tech native.
Cryptographic sharing is their future - and yours.
Take the leap, we’ll provide your security harness.
In both English and Arabic.
We educate in other languages like German and Swedish too.
After all, as the world adopts a borderless, decentralized currency we do our part to connect people everywhere.
Some of Our Clients..
What We Do
We started giving "Buy Your First Bitcoin" workshops in 2014 in banks and management consultancies. In 2015 we were part of the first ever Dubai Blockchain Council created by the Executive Office of the ruler of Dubai. We have been active in the Crypto space since then.In 2020, we started creating online content for companies like Forbes and BCG.
We've also put on events for as few as 8 people and as large as a 3000 person 3 day event with Crypto, DeFi and NFTs in Abu Dhabi with some of the biggest names in Crypto called Blockchain World.
We continue to provide the same education and videos, and to grow our community to create and invest in world enabling and changing technologies.
Metcalfe's Law
Our name is a homage to a living legend and pioneer of the 20th Century, Robert Metcalfe.
He co-invented Ethernet, co-founded 3Com, and formulated Metcalfe's law, which describes the effect of exponential growth in networks.
Metcalfe also made several predictions which failed to come to pass, including forecasting the demise of the internet during the 1990's (no one is perfect and neither is crypto).We know that Bitcoin's value is derived from both the network effect each new user adds as well as its finite supply.The Value of Bitcoin increases as the network grows, in a similar way to the diagram below (best viewed on computer screen).
