The main idea of ESFL Startup Camp is to bring together most forward-thinking and innovative students. We are going to learn, debate and innovate around such topics as libertarian values, individual freedoms, free market, blockchain, cryptoworld, transhumanism, and cybersecurity. Our speakers will present you with real life examples of people who changed their societies and who put all their efforts in promoting core principles of individual freedoms. At the end of the camp, each student will be able to present a project describing their blockchain based business idea which will change our society and make it a freer place to live. Besides that, we plan on having a lot of fun! Get prepared for the underground excursions, shooting range, rooftop party and many more!

The blockchain community has seen a huge influx of new members over the last months of massive economic growth. Unfortunately, many of the newcomers are not well-informed investors, but rather inexperienced speculators following a trend, with no idea what the whole fuzz is really about. As blockchain investments are a risky proposition during this early phase of adoption, I will try to shed some light on the fundamentals of blockchain technology in the hopes that it will help some people to make more informed decisions.
