Notable speakers included top executives from global financial giants and figures like Eric Trump, who advocated for bitcoin as a national strategic reserve. Bitcoin's price surge, influenced by whale transactions and regulatory developments, has highlighted the importance of secure wallet options like Tomo and Plus Wallets. Ukraine's plan to legalize cryptocurrencies by 2025 aims to enhance financial transparency and security, treating crypto profits similarly to stock exchanges.
