And the Lord looked down upon the crypto bros and He was grieved in His heart. So the Lord said, "I will send a flood upon you to wash away your crypto conference."
THE TRUTH about the great CRYPTO flood in Dubai
Which is pretty much what has happened with not just one but two such events being held in Dubai this week, Blockchain Life and TOKEN2049.
Rain is not a meteorological phenomenon usually associated with the desert city, and for all its ultra-modern architectural wonders, drainage has not been seen as a priority. Yet it rains – in biblical proportions.
The rainfall began on Monday night and also hit Bahrain, Oman, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, but the United Arab Emirates bore the brunt. By Tuesday evening, more than 142 mm (5.59 in) had fallen over Dubai. On average, the city receives 94.7 mm (3.73 in) in an entire year.
