It is our pleasure to announce that BitSpace will be hosting Scandinavia’s first ever EOS meetup.
The event will take place at Radisson Blue Plaza Hotel, Oslo’s tallest skyscraper (118 meters/387 feet), this week on Wednesday evening. Attendance is free.
Dan Larimer’s (@dan / @dantheman) third major blockchain project is his largest so far. Daniel Larimer has developed two of the most utilized blockchains in the world, measured in number of transactions (BitShares and Steemit), and EOS is now about to become the biggest ICO ever with over 1 billion USD raised.
We will enlighten our fellow Norwegians about what is potentially the most innovative project in the entire crypto space. We hope the event will help spark the interest of investors and most importantly of developers. If our friend Chris Coney (@marketingmonk) is right about EOS being "the Microsoft of blockchain," we might be in for something special.

20:00 Parsec Frontiers Building an MMO on Blockchain by Henning Rokling (Game developer - Virtual Galaxy Blockchain)
Behind the project of Parsec Frontiers lies the established video game producer Artplant, the makers of Battlestar Galactica Online with 20 million players, and Norwegian games industry veteran Henning Rokling, the man behind classic video games such as Project IGI and IGI 2. Together they will explore the possibilities of the EOS platform for game development and how you could build a Virtual Galaxy on the blockchain.
If you are in the Oslo area, please don’t miss the chance of getting in on what could become the major blockchain project of 2018. For everyone else the event will be filmed!
