It's Day One of the Nexus Conference here in the incredibly beautiful Aspen, CO.

It's understandable if you've never heard of Nexus. It's one cryptocurrency that's kept a relatively low profile.

What I've learned thus far is from actively seeking the information out. Meaning, there's very little hype surrounding it — just a lot of focus on the tech and the vision. And it certainly hasn't worried about getting "dap" from the likes of Floyd Mayweather, Paris Hilton or Dennis Rodman.

That said, I've been nibbling at the edges of for a while — scoping out the team, the tech (to the best of my abilities), the commitment and the vision. Which is why I was happy to see they were having a conference. And even more happy to see the line-up.
