Challenges of dealing with multiple popular “non-bitcoin” clones: ethereum (ether), Bitshares (BTS), NXT, ripple (XRP), monero (XMR) and more-ShapeShift supports 40+ assets. Possible suggestions/solutions and workarounds along with advantages/disadvantages of various platforms.

The Solidity programming language was built to address the non-deterministic way in which traditional languages such as Java compile into byte or machine specific code. The need for deterministic compilation to assembly language stems from deterministically calculating the running cost of a given Smart Contract. However, if the code, compiled byte code and variable state storage could be stored in a file in IPFS after being run and verified in a JVM, then deterministic compilation would no longer be a relevant requirement. Besides the obvious reduction in gas consumption, this design will also circumvent the Smart Contract gas limit and more complex smart contracts could be deployed.

Learn how to build Dapps using: Open source tools (Truffle, IPFS, Lightwallet and BTC Relay), ConsenSys tools (BlockApps API and Microsoft Azure BlockApps nodes) and other ConsenSys tools (MetaMask, a Chrome Ethereum plugin, or uPort, an ID management system).

One of the primary features of a blockchain is its decentralization guarantees, but decentralization is not a binary decision. BlockCypher's developer advocate will dive into the tradeoffs between running your own blockchain infrastructure and using a third-party API, using examples and use-cases from BlockCypher's APIs and customers.

Learn how to develop Blockchain products with the end user in mind - critical to mainstream adoption. See applications through real world cases, how Vanbex products Ether Party and Genesis are different from other blockchain products in that they’re so easy to use by non-devs - and why it’s important to keep this in mind. Discover how Ether Party is a product for anyone, removing complexities in making and executing smart contracts.

Demo of `eris` (see eris-cli); our open-source tool for orchestrating blockchain applications. Covering eris' core concepts as: a) `chains` => setting up and and `new`-ing a chain; b) `keys` => key management with containers; c) `pkgs` => for deploying suits of smart contracts; d) `services` => dockerized applications (pre-built selection & build your own); think `docker-compose`; e) `files` a handy wrapper around IPFS, when it is running as a service.

The blockchain has obvious financial roots, but there are exciting uses outside of bitcoin and monetary applications. Discover how distributed trust and trust-less systems are starting to impact society's non-financial institutions and create new opportunities in law, real estate, financial planning, physical security, and government - then discover how we're creating some of these new institutions at Legal Robot.
