Another Bitcoin Event Postponed Due To COVID-19 Fears

The coronavirus outbreak has raised a lot of fears and concerns on the market and allowed people to fear the COVID-19 virus even more. There is another Bitcoin event that has now been postponed over these fears and many other events being postponing in the outside world.

This has been proven true over the past few months with the outbreak of the coronavirus-caused illness named COVID-19 which has since spread from China to all over the world. In the latest update, there have been 50 deaths in only 24 hours in Italy due to the coronavirus outbreak, and there are new hotspots of the COVID-19 appearing in Italy, South Korea, Iran, Germany and France.

The Bitcoin 2020 conference is another Bitcoin event that is postponed now. Originally set to take place at the end of March in San Francisco, the event would host speakers such as Blockstream’s Adam Back, FTX as well as the Alameda CEO Sam Bankman-Fried.

Bitcoin events have been very popular in the community and with this one being postponed (at least for now) there are many things we could miss out on. The official postponement has been featured in a post published to Bitcoin Magazine on Friday, whose parent company runs Bitcoin 2020. The post said that the event has been “postponed from March 27 and 28, 2020, to Q3 of 2020.”

All of this comes in response to Bitcoin 2020’s event team which kept in close contact with “health authorities, the Office of the Mayor of San Francisco and the State of California regarding this evolving situation.”

This is another Bitcoin event that is postponed due to the COVID-19 fears. Despite the delay, however, the organizers remain optimistic and wrote in the note:

“Having spent the last year preparing for Bitcoin 2020 along with an amazing group of speakers, panelists, sponsors and partners, we’re disappointed to ask you to wait a few more months. But we’re confident that Bitcoin 2020 will still serve as the biggest and best celebration of Bitcoin in history at this later date.”

Besides this, another Tron-themed crypto event put on by Justin Sun’s Tron Foundation named niTROn has also been postponed recently. The team announced that due to the epidemic in Wuhan, China, the safety and health of the community and the wider public is a top priority.

In the meantime, the altcoin news today show that CoronaCoin is here as the first cryptocurrency which is actually linked to the coronavirus and the COVID-19 outbreak.
