Alex mentioned that you were interested in putting together an event or summit that would bring together top stakeholders from industry, government, and academia to look at the impact of cryptocurrency on society. Coin Center would love to partner with you on such an effort. Would you have some time over the next month to have a call to discuss it?

This might be a great opportunity for Coin Center to collaborate on in getting such a summit off the ground; I'm sure there is commonality with some things you may already be working on.
