Friday, June 8, 2018 Keynote Address Bitcoin, Blockchain, and 2050 - Kevin T. Pogoda, Esq., VCTE, VCTSA What is Blockchain, and why does it matter to the land title industry? While the blockchain can do little to influence local legislators’ sales restrictions, it will have a great impact on the financial verification element of the sales process itself. By using a blockchain distributed database to prove authenticity, homeowners could legitimately transfer ownership immediately without the need to pay for third-party verification. Join Kevin Pogoda for a riveting session on the future of the land title industry. Kevin is a Past President of the Virginia Land Title Association, and First Vice President and Virginia State Manager (Northern Div) for Old Republic National Title Insurance Company. 1031 Tax Exchanges - Katherine Pantelakis, Esq.
