Key highlights from London Summit 2018
The event was kicked off by the annual Networking Blitz, a networking platform with a twist. This year’s Networking Blitz shaped up to be the largest ever, having successfully grown each year in scale and popularity.
The Blitz reflected a unique opening party, combining individuals from all corners of the industry into a single room, doling out drinks, and creating the perfect setting for networking.
The second day of London Summit 2018 featured a wide range of panels, seminars, and workshops that touched on the most pertinent industry issues. Three floors of discussions took place, with the new Crypto Trading Floor representing the newest splash in the event.
As always, the marquee CEOs panel drew the largest hype, and ultimately attendance, showing off some of the industry’s leading figures in one roundtable discussion. The future of cryptocurrencies and FX, as well as key regulatory moves were talked about at length, delivering as one of the most important sessions of the entire summit.

In addition, eToro’s Yoni Assia made waves with his announcement during his panel regarding eToro’s launch of its own Stablecoin in 2019.
Stablecoin issuance has been one of the more significant trends in exchanges throughout the latter half of 2018. The news was a welcome development to all in attendance at the panel discussion and drew praise from attendees.
“Will eToro issue its own stablecoin in 2019? – absolutely yes!”
