This event, titled “First Year of Fasting,” was hosted by His Highness Sheikh Salem bin Sultan bin Saqr Al-Qasimi, Chairman of the Airport Board and Director General of the Department.

His Highness Sheikh Salem bin Sultan bin Saqr Al-Qasimi emphasized the phrase “We are one family” during the virtual RootsTech 2023 conference, reminding everyone that despite our differences, we are all united in our humanity. This charitable gathering was another beautiful example of how can we embrace new technologies with great potential and cooperate with excellent Web3 projects such as Array to promote the combination of traditional charity career and blockchain technology.

As the representative of the Blockchain industry and the Ambassador of Array, Mr. Ola delivered a short but impactful speech in which he shared his powerful insights on how the Blockchain industry is breaking free from its ivory tower and contributing its strength to the real world. He emphasized that people have always misunderstood Blockchain, or have simply been afraid of new things. However, after two decades of development, Blockchain has evolved beyond being merely icy and lifeless code on a computer.
“Like Array_Protocol,” he said, “we began with Blockchain, and now we are connecting it with the real world.We have built a decentralised protocol which uses $USDR as the base payment currency, which helps human production activities such as charitable donations, travel and accommodation around the world to provide more convenient services in an omni-chain ecosystem.
