Ray Dalio, Larry Summers, Tom Brady, Kevin O'Leary -- just a few famous names joining thousands of attendees at the Consensus by CoinDesk conference and, we think it's safe to say, also joining crypto/ blockchain enthusiasts of all walks of life, ages, backgrounds and beliefs into the proverbial crypto/ blockchain "rabbit hole" which is too fascinating to ever escape. You can see excerpts of speeches and interviews in this video. Many speakers appeared full of optimism about a global financial system that is more equitable and fair; some worried other forces may dash those hopes and dreams. We hope you enjoy these memorable moments and join CoinDesk.com throughout the year as we continue to follow one of the most important stories of our lifetimes.
