Abstract: This presentation aims to give a thought to the next technical and non-technical challenges of Bitcoin. After briefly examining the past development and the current state of the technology, we will delve into the different areas for improvement and future possibly contentious debates.

Biography: I started working in Bitcoin in 2015 at the hardware wallet company Ledger, on their Chrome application. Then I switched to Ethereum, co-founded a non-profit organization called Asseth which is today I think the biggest non-profit in Europe. I am still webmaster but not active since I moved to Portugal. 

I refactored the javascript tests of the Consensys ERC20 smart-contract. It is not something hard but I am quite proud to say that I have a bit of my code in every ERC20 tokens. Last summer I worked on the smart-contract of Dether.io. The project recently raised 13m USD in ICO. Since September 2017 I am focusing on technical trainings, about Bitcoin for now.
