Thomas previously worked as a marketing consultant and business developer for several established and startup fintech firms across the Asia Pacific. He began his blockchain journey in early 2013 at Tokyo-based Mt.Gox – once the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange. While at Mt.Gox, Thomas worked on the first bitcoin PR campaigns for the G8 and G20 summits, the education portal Bitcoins.com, the first bitcoin debit card, and opened the first licensed bitcoin exchange entity in Hong Kong.
Since joining Gatecoin in early 2016, Thomas has spoken widely on cryptocurrency and blockchain applications at various industry events and provides regular commentary to global financial media on Chinese market trends.
Thomas says he is incredibly honored and excited to be speaking at iFX Expo in Hong Kong, representing the blockchain industry among such a distinguished panel of China marketing experts.
“Due to the ever-evolving diversity and complexity of blockchain assets, and insatiable demand for alternative assets in China, it is both increasingly challenging but also incredibly promising to be designing and implementing a range of marketing activities targeting Chinese traders and investors from all walks of life. There are already plenty of established bitcoin exchanges in Mainland China, but as the attributes of blockchain assets shift from a focus on cryptocurrency to pseudo-securities and smart contract based usage rights, th ere will be increasing opportunities for smaller, niche players like us,” he stated.
