Jay McCarthy CTO @ Reach Platform Blockchain development is unreasonably complex, expensive, divided and exclusive. We are introducing a way for JavaScript developers to build decentralized apps on any blockchain using familiar syntax. It's faster, cheaper and more secure than how it's done today with Solidity and TEA. It's compatible with frontend languages like React, Vue & Go. Long are the days where you have to get investment, hire a PhD mathematician, hire rare blockchain developers, learn Solidity, request an audit and deploy a unique build for each environment. Best part? No need to learn a new language. We've built the Reach library with JavaScript syntax so it's a linear move. You can build DApps as a 1-(wo)man show. We've had developers rebuild the Balancer Exchange (thousands of line of code) with 100 lines of our code. Other talks at this conference 🚀🪐 https://www.conf42.com​/js2021 — 0:00 Intro 0:26 Talk
