After taking a short summer break, we are back with two more exciting talks!

Reactive web apps with RxJs and Observables

Building a Bitcoin Hardware Wallet with Golang and a Raspberry Pi Zero

Speaker:
Nic Raboy - @nraboy

Description:
The Raspberry Pi Zero is an Internet of Things (IoT) device the size of a pack of gum without WiFi or Bluetooth that can run Linux and costs only five dollars. When working with cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, it is recommended that wallets are encrypted and never to be exposed to the internet. In this presentation, we're going to see how Golang can be used to generate cryptocurrency wallet information sandboxed and encrypted on the Raspberry Pi Zero, an alternative to buying one of the expensive options, but maintaining similar functionality.

He has experience in Java, JavaScript, Golang and a variety of frameworks such as Angular, NativeScript, and Apache Cordova.
