What an incredible few days at Consensus New York!
As a fresh faced company looking to make headways in the industry, Consensus proved to be a great stage to show the industry what we’re all about and get people excited for WatermelonBlock’s future.
Given that the industry is still in its first 10 years, we were inspired to see such a big and buzzing crowd at Consensus, instilling even further excitement for WatermelonBlock’s place in the industry. As an Australian company, we don’t get to engage with masses of crypto buffs very often, so we were peckish to jump right in and talk all things crypto, blockchain, AI & FinTech. With so many likeminded people around, Consensus was a great platform to see how the world is engaging with the space, share opinions and meet with thought leaders.

Setting up shop with our fellow Australian compatriots and blockchain business partners, Asta Solutions, we were thrilled to share our product with so many blockchain enthusiasts, entrepreneurs and investors. When we weren’t doing a ‘walk’ of the conference, we were engaging potential partners and interested investors. So many people to talk to, so little time!

Above just chatting, we were able to take people through our White Paper and let investors and enthusiasts play around with our app, providing a great opportunity for feedback on what we are doing and the direction we should be taking.

Safe to say, it was a busy three days.

After chatting with potential investors, partners and likeminded individuals at Consensus, we recognized the importance of using Sentiment Analysis in bridging market gaps relating to information sharing, investor decision making, data analysis and data scaling. The future for WatermelonBlock is looking brighter than ever. See you again next year, Consensus New York!
