The blockchain world descended on Singapore for a massive week of discussions, panels, and networking opportunities. Sparrow of course was in the thick of things, building partnerships, making new friends and sharing what we can do for the world of cryptocurrencies.

The week also saw an amazing increase in queries for options and we are working with our partners such as QCP Capital to get these products in the hands of everyone who needs protection or seeks to monetize their digital assets. Contact us if you need help structuring a risk control tool that suits your needs. We are really close to launching our first products.

HASHED XSQUARE SINGAPORE

Organized by HASHED and XSQUARE
We enjoyed an afternoon of great projects such as Carry and Passport, and a very lively panel that discussed the various conditions that would be necessary for a more orderly cryptocurrency space, and the application of blockchain technology moving forward.

Crypto Connection by the Bay

Organized by Signum Capital
Hosts: Arrington XRP Capital, AELF, Bibox, Kyber Network, Neo Global Capital, QCP Capital
Co-Hosts: BlockVC, Du Capital, JRR Crypto, Kosmos Capital, Krypital Group, Privitive Ventures and Volt Labs

We had a great time at what was one of the best events of the week. Held in the grand Clifford Pier at Fullerton Bay Hotel, we saw a huge crowd and met a lot of seasoned options traders and potential market makers for the Sparrow Exchange platform. Here are a few pics from the event.

Our partners Blockfolks and Yozma invited us to this wonderful event held at the National Gallery. We met a few parties who needed hedging solutions and are in discussions with them.

SUM Event by Du Capital

We were invited to the SUM Event organized by Du Capital and took part in a joint panel with MatrixONE discussing the role financial instruments would play in shaping the cryptocurrency space. Unlike the mentality at the start of the year, we are seeing many more serious participants who care about custody, hedging, and proper regulations. We are grateful to have been part of this wonderful event.

Intense Meetings and Wider Interest in Sparrow Options

In addition to the events, we booked a room at the Marina Bay Sands to take private meetings and it was intense. We did back-to-backs every day of Singapore Blockchain week. We got great insights into the needs of each exchange and fund, and we have some great ideas on how to help build solutions for them.

Despite the painful bear market currently, we are seeing a lot of interest in hedging solutions and partnerships to bring Sparrow Options to a wider audience. We are now doing our follow-ups and preparing for big announcements on our token economy and our technology. We also expect to announce a few partnerships that will grow the ecosystem significantly.
