# UTXO.24

The UTXO.24 is a unique event for several reasons:

- Open Nature: The UTXO is open to everyone. It is a collaborative environment where participants ranging from cryptocurrency enthusiasts, programmers, fintech experts, artists, to activists gather and exchange ideas.
- Broad Scope of Topics: It covers a wide array of topics, not just related to cryptocurrencies and blockchain, but also societal implications of these technologies, financial markets, art, and culture.
- The Setting: Unlike many technology events, UTXO takes place in an outdoor camp-like setting. Participants often stay in tents and there are numerous self-organized sessions, making it more of a community gathering than a strict conference.
- Self-Organized Sessions: Much of the camp's content is made up of self-organized sessions, in which any participant can offer a workshop or a talk on a topic of their choosing.
- Art Installations: There are typically numerous art installations and performances throughout the camp. These can range from electronic art to interactive performances.
- Emphasis on Privacy and Security: The UTXO has a strong emphasis on privacy, financial security, and the transparency of blockchain technologies. It's not just about the technology, but also about its impact on society and how it can be used to promote freedom and financial inclusivity.
- Community: The camp is about more than just sharing knowledge; it's also about building a community of like-minded individuals who are passionate about cryptocurrencies and their impact on society. The UTXO event creates a space for this community to come together and connect in person.
