The Gaming Standards Association announced that Asian operator Melco and blockchain provider and manufacturer AlphaSlot will share their insights on the use of blockchain technology in the gaming industry at the GSA’s first-ever conference event, GSA Technology Summit—Focus on Blockchain. The event is scheduled for November 8-9 at the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno.
“We are excited to see such interest in this event,” GSA President Peter DeRaedt said in a statement. “Speakers will discuss the technology transformation that is moving away from monolithic and archaic systems, operator and regulatory benefits of implementing blockchain, and the impact of how the network effect of the blockchain platform can give gaming companies and operators a competitive advantage.”
Industry insiders interested in how blockchain might impact the gaming industry will be able to listen to and learn from companies currently using the technology and gaming regulators as they debate the benefits the blockchain provides them and the challenges it poses.
A key element of the second phase of the internet, blockchain is already having a dramatic impact on our lives and businesses. It is poised to revolutionize data sharing security and security and provides regulatory authorities with previously unobtainable levels of transparency.
