We’re less than one month away from Apex—the inaugural event that brings together developers to learn, build, share and celebrate all things XRP Ledger. In partnership with the XRP Ledger Foundation, we’re pleased to announce additional speakers who will join Alexis Ohanian, David Schwartz, Wietse Wind and Monica Long at Apex.

Key to achieving this vision is crypto and open-source systems built on blockchain to build one frictionless experience for game developers everywhere. Join Chris to hear how Forte is transforming the billion-dollar gaming industry.
