On the second day of TOKEN2049 in Dubai, Eric Trump joined prominent figures discussing cryptocurrency trends. Highlights include discussions on Bitcoin, AI technology, and significant predictions. Key sessions feature insights from major crypto influencers, hinting at potential market movements with Bitcoin predicted to hit $1 million by 2028.

TOKEN2049 in Dubai is buzzing on its second day, with a notable appearance by Eric Trump, the son of former U.S. President Donald Trump, who’s stepping into the crypto conversation as a web3 ambassador. He’s scheduled for a much-anticipated fireside chat at 12:40 PM GST on the OKX Main Stage, sharing the platform with Zach Witkoff from World Liberty Financial and Justin Sun, who’s the founder of TRON. Today’s agenda is packed with discussions that dig deep into the cryptocurrency and blockchain trends.

The event has managed to attract big names from across the crypto and fintech sectors. Notable speakers include Raoul Pal from Real Vision, who’ll elaborate on why he thinks crypto still holds significant opportunities, and Ben Zhou from Bybit, who’s diving into the concept of autonomous agents and AI wallets. Meanwhile, Eric Balchunas from Bloomberg is set to dissect the topic of Bitcoin ETFs, and Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino is ready to present why Tether is deemed “a once-in-a-century company.”

Here’s a rundown of what’s on for the day. Kicking things off at 12:40 PM is the fireside chat with Eric Trump, Zach Witkoff, and Justin Sun, focusing on “The Future of Finance, Politics & Crypto.” Right after at 1:00 PM, Ben Zhou will talk about “Uncapitalized Alpha: Crypto’s Big Opportunity” at the same stage.

Later on, Janine Tang from Virtuous Protocol will be discussing a rather hot topic, “Bitcoin & ETFs: Disruptive Power Couple” at 2:45 PM on the KuCoin Stage. Tether’s Paolo Ardoino will follow at 3:00 PM on the OKX Main Stage to explain why his company is so exceptional. Then, Sandeep Nailwal from Polygon will deliver a presentation on “Building Blockchain for All” at 11:15 AM, and Muneeb Ali from Stacks is up at 4:00 PM with his insights into “Bitcoin’s Next Chapter.” Wrapping up the day is Alex Svanevik from Nansen at 5:00 PM, discussing “When All Values Outnumber Humans”.

The first day of TOKEN2049 already set the bar high, especially with Changpeng Zhao (CZ) on stage. He shared some key insights around the intersection of AI, Bitcoin mining in Bhutan, and new regulatory developments in both China and Hong Kong. Zhao pointed out that regulators are keen on local control, an essential point in the ever-evolving regulatory frameworks surrounding cryptocurrency.

Moreover, Arthur Hayes was particularly bold, stating he believes Bitcoin could balloon to $1 million by the year 2028. In a somewhat contrasting note, VanEck’s CEO cautioned against buying Ethereum ETFs out of mere hype. Balchunas even added a humorous twist, joking about the potential for “Trump, Melania ETFs… Who’ll buy that?” With the heavyweight speakers lined up for today, discussions are expected to be rich and could even shake market sentiments.
