Bitcoin Pioneer
Nick Spanos
Bitcoin Pioneer
Nick Spanos is a pioneer in the bitcoin and blockchain technology space. In 2013, Spanos founded Bitcoin Center NYC – the world's first ever cryptocurrency trading floor – which initially opened directly across from the NYSE in 2013. Spanos is also CEO of Blockchain Technologies Corp., which patented VoteWatcher, the first-ever blockchain voting platform. He is co-founder of Zap.org, which solves one of the biggest challenges for blockchain smart contracts, by allowing real-world data and events to trigger smart contract provisions for the first time. Nick Spanos was featured in the recent Netflix documentary Banking on Bitcoin and is a sought-after speaker at blockchain events worldwide.
ZAP
Nick Spanos is co-founder of Zap.org, which solves one of the biggest challenges for blockchain smart contracts, by allowing real-world data and events to trigger smart contract provisions for the first time. Zap is a cross-chain multifunctional DeFi protocol. Users can swap tokens, earn rewards by validating oracle data feeds, and raise funds on customizable bonding curves on our platform. Spanos was featured in the recent Netflix documentary Banking on Bitcoin and is a sought-after speaker at blockchain events worldwide. He was also Founder of GetaRoom.com in 1997. In 1983 Nick Spanos attended New York Institute of technology where he studied computer science and AeroSpace Engineering.
His first meeting with the crypto business?
In 2010, a Nick Spanos's colleague wanted to buy a website domain name that he owned, and his friend convinced him to accept Bitcoin as payment. That was his first interaction with Bitcoin.
Since then, he becames increasingly involved with the technology. Near the end of 2013, he rented out a large event space for a Bitcoin-themed Christmas party, and they all decided to keep the place open as a center where people can assemble to learn about Bitcoin. Bitcoin Center NYC exists today as the first physical representation of this highly decentralized technology.
His motivations
There is 2.5 billion unbanked people in the world who could add to the global economy that are unreachable. Bitcoin allows them to supply these people with the resources and the support to learn about this technology and send value to someone on the other side of the globe.
What also motivates Nick Spanos is the blockchain, and its ability to independently verify a multitude of transactions that originally required a room full of people to process. Bitcoin operates person to person. The benefits of a truly decentralized financial system are becoming increasingly apparent. There is no need of a third party or people in smoke-filled back rooms making decisions with the stored labor of your life. That’s what motivates Nick Spanos.
Nick Spanos, Co-founder at ZAP, did us the honor of speaking at AIBC Summit this November 2021. During the main stage event for DeFi & Emerging Tech, Nick gave a keynote speech to open the event!
AIBC Summit aims to be a pillar in the technological development by uniting tech-leaders, regulators, investors and entrepreneurs from across the world to discuss, share ideas, make partnerships and build the foundation for the industry of tomorrow.

Ronald Lopes
Founder
Grupo Loyalty
My name is Ronald Lopes, and I began my career as an entrepreneur in 2019, operating in the digital marketing and betting market. My first well-known success story was in sports betting consultancy (Futmilionário). I believe I have had/have a successful career because I am a very innovative and dedicated person in all projects, not only myself, but also all my partners and collaborators.
At my 30 years-old (and almost 5 years as an entrepreneur), I believe I have gained recognition in the market I operate in today, which is the affiliates and iGaming market. I was awarded as Affiliate of the Year in 2023, and I believe this award has made me an influential and respected person in the industry. This award highlighted not only my skills but also those of my team involved daily in operations.
In early 2024, my company merged with Grupo Esportes da Sorte (one of the largest groups in the market), consolidating work that was being done solely by my team and setting new goals with our new partner. There were several proposals from companies in the industry, but I believe that this merger between my company and Grupo EDS was mainly driven by the objectives/vision that both parties have for the business.
