People lined up for blocks and waited for hours to get into the E11even club in Miami on Wednesday night, with several men talking excitedly about the lap dances they planned to get inside.

Yet this wasn’t the typical crowd of bachelors normally found at establishments like these. It was the official after-party of Consensus, one of the cryptocurrency industry’s largest conferences.
