Attendance of one of the largest cryptocurrency conferences in the world is sharply increasing this year. In this regard, Fundstrat analyst Tommy Lee believes that the rally of cryptocurrency will begin with the conference Consensus 2018. According to him, the event can attract more than 7,000 people, while last year there were about 2,750 visitors. The last time attendance doubled, bitkoin grew by 69% during the conference and by 138% within two months after it, he said. In recent days, the prices of bitcoin and many other cryptocurrencies have shown some decrease, but the conference is a favorable factor for further growth, analysts of Fundstrat Global Advisors believe.
