WHY BORACAY?

As Web3 keeps improving every time, so has one of the most popular tourist spots in the country.

Boracay has been one of the first places in the Philippines to support Bitcoin payments.

Because of Boracay’s Bitcoin adoption, it is the perfect place to host the event.

MORE DETAILS ABOUT THE NEWS

Ethan Rose, the CEO of Pouch.ph, and the VP of operations at Coins.ph, Elijah Tan, will lead the overall program.

Following its progress, other speakers will also take part in the event, which includes:

  • Jack Lee, founder of HCM Capital 

  • Augustus Ilag, an investor who led Sequoia Capital’s Southeast Asia crypto practice

  • Jiro Reyes, founder of Bitskwela

Besides the guests, both of the companies also have an exciting plan intended for the participants.

Attendees at the retreat will have a chance to win a bitcoin bounty. If they can locate the 12-word seed phrase for the Dread Pirate Nakamoto private key, they will be able to win.

Just a little tip: the seed phrase is scattered around the island. Good luck!

CONCLUSION

The companies’ Bitcoin Island Retreat signals a great opportunity for you and the Philippine crypto community to personally connect and share ideas.

Therefore, make sure not to miss it and reserve your spot now here.
