Flashback
On May 29, the ELLIPAL team traveled to Austin, the capital of Texas, United States for an invitation from the world-renowned conference Consensus 2024. The event lasted until May 31, giving individuals and companies working in cryptocurrency, blockchain, and Web3 industries a chance to meet and discuss their common interests for three days. Consensus 2024 was a place full of opportunities and surprises for us as we were determined to thrive in the field with our outstanding cold wallets.

What is Consensus 2024?
Consensus is the premier and longest-running global event that unites all facets of the cryptocurrency, blockchain, and Web3 community. With impactful discussions led by visionary speakers and practical workshops addressing industry challenges, developers, investors, founders, brands, policymakers, and more will gain the tools and insights necessary to advance a more decentralized future.
The event was aptly named “Consensus” as it serves as the main platform for the industry to convene, discuss pivotal issues, celebrate significant achievements, and engage in critical debates. This year, Consensus 2024 offers a platform to be part of the most crucial conversations in crypto and Web3.
Before Consensus 2024, its poster was spotted on the huge billboard of Times Square, marking its influence on the newly involving world of Web3. The open support from Nasdaq particularly showed how Consensus 2024 has emerged to become the most important conversation in crypto, blockchain, and Web3.

However, the customers also expressed concerns about some problems with our products. Our team’s representatives took customers’ feedback seriously and recognized the room for improvement in user experience. We also started brainstorming solutions to the existing bugs in the use of the products.

Meeting Business Partners
We also got a chance to meet various project managers and discuss collaborations. Both sides enjoyed the conversation, which enabled us to unlock more future potential in the crypto sector.
Solana
Our team had a lively conversation with Solana representatives. We touched on further collaboration on the following technologies:
- DePIN: DePIN refers to networks that leverage blockchain technology to decentralize the management and operation of physical infrastructure.
- AI: AI involves the development of algorithms and systems that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence.
- SOL ecosystem: A cryptocurrency ecosystem encompasses all the elements involved in the creation, distribution, trading, and use of digital currencies. For SOL, Solana’s native coin, it sought to have ELLIPAL support the crypto ecosystem on all cold wallet line-ups.
Verus
As an established associate, Verus is collaborating with ELLIPAL on the Seed Phrase Steel product. Since it has been a successful partnership, we were pleased to discuss future plans with the Verus team.
