Interviewer : Blockchain & Bitcoin France Conference (BCF)
Interviewed : Laurent Leloup, CEO of Chaineum and president of France Blocktech (LL)
BCF : We know you have 25 years of experience in the financial field. What was the starting point for you?
LL : My career started in 1991 in the field of risk management and customer credit. In 2007, I launched an online magazine Finyear.com, and it's only after a few years that I discovered blockchain and bitcoin
BCF : How did you start with the blockchain? What helped you understand that decentralized technologies had a future and set the direction for your business?
LL : Like many others, I heard about blockchain technology with the emergence of bitcoin in 2008-2009. Being the founder of FinYear.com, I have received many questions about Bitcoin, so I'm interested in this topic to try to explain it to our readers. The more I learned about it, the more I understood it, first from a technical point of view, then from a social point of view. I quickly realized the potential of blockchain and crypto-currencies.
BCF : You are the founder and CEO of two blockchain consulting companies and two organizations involved in financial news. How do you manage to combine the management of these companies?
LL : We are working in a new field that creates a lot of things! I like doing things in adjacent areas. These companies are interconnected. I am trying to create an ecosystem that can benefit many people in a transparent and open way. Transparency is one of the features of the blockchain. Fortunately, I managed to build a strong team of competent professionals, at the moment there are about 20 people. Every day, they help me to create this ecosystem of ICO, blockchain and crypto-assets.
BCF : Your Chaineum Company is the first "ICO Boutique". Was it difficult to create the company Chaineum.
LL: The opening of the Chaineum company in France was not too difficult, because we were the first on the market. We contributed to the implementation of the first 100% French Domraider ICO operation in 2017, and we managed to raise more than 35 million euros. I think that for the last 3-4 years it has become clear that blockchain technology can change society, and create a better world. The creation of the Chaineum Company is a logical development of events for me and the people around me: helping companies receive support and funding from people all over the world, regardless of their age, their social condition, but always in accordance with the law. Being first, we face multiple challenges. We are explorers of the 21st century!
LL : As I said, I started writing on the blockchain around 2015. After a few months of blockchain studies, I organized two conferences on the subject in France at the end of 2015. At that time, the need for information on blockchain, bitcoin, and cryptocurrency was very high. This is also one of the reasons why I created the French association France Blocktech in 2016, and Blockchain Valley. I really believe that the blockchain is a technology for everyone, and of course I had the idea to write a book about it. This is how my book "Blockchain, the revolution of trust" was born.BCF : How did the idea of writing the book "Blockchain, the revolution of trust" come about? What was the inspiration?
