When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade.
Because of the coronavirus pandemic, CoinDesk’s annual must-attend Consensus conference in New York has pivoted to Consensus: Distributed, the must-see virtual conference you can attend from anywhere, May 11-15.

If you choose to watch here on the CoinDesk website, you’ll be able to watch for 10 minutes before having to register on Brella – for free – and then hit the Stream button.
