La conférence Scaling Bitcoin 2018 à l’Université Keio de Tokyo au Japon vient de s’achever.
Pendant deux jours, développeurs et chercheurs se sont succédé à la tribune pour évoquer à la fois les améliorations internes au protocole Bitcoin, les processus qui conduisent à ses améliorations et les applications et protocoles externes qui permettront d’accroître les usages de Bitcoin.
