The most exciting event of 2022 was that Rapids Network was for the second year running a partner in the ‘Best Short Film’ category at the famous Carmarthen Bay Film Festival which took place over 4 days at ‘The Ffwrnes’ Theatre in Llanelli, Wales. When the ‘Best Short Film’ award was presented to the winner of this category, Matt Cimelli (CEO of Rapids) took the opportunity to present him with a Rapids (RPD) Masternode.
Much was discovered at this iconic Film Festival including discussions around the future of cinema with NFT and Blockchain.
