For anyone who is interested, here’s an exceptional one-day program opportunity in San Diego on February 9th. The lineup of speakers is stellar, and the subjects timely.

The Dollar and Continued US Exceptionalism
La Jolla, CA | February 9, 2026

Will increasing use of digital assets increase this dominance and success, or are they a threat? Will the new U.S. trade and tariff policies impact the current world order?
