The Token2049 conference kicks off on April 18 in Dubai, and it's sure to be one to remember.
Token2049, the annual Web3 conference, opens its doors tomorrow, April 18, but those doors may well be barricaded with sandbags as the heavens have opened in recent days to inundate the desert city with a wall of water.
The city, which typically gets just 9.5cm (about 4 inches) of rain in a year, has seen close to 15cm (about 6 inches) fall in just 24 hours between Monday and Tuesday evening, throwing the tinder-dry metropolis into chaos.
Social media is awash with videos and clips of the unlikely situation, with streets turned to rivers, cars submerged, planes spraying water on flooded runways, and tales of diverted flights and visitors to the conference trapped in their hotels.
