The Blockchain Life 2024 conference, ongoing in Dubai, UAE, faced an unexpected challenge as widespread flooding swept across the country. 
The cause of the flooding in Dubai is believed to be a result of cloud seeding, a technique used to induce rainfall by dispersing substances into clouds. 
Blockchain Life 2024 is a gathering in the cryptocurrency and blockchain industry, attracting over 8,000 attendees from 120 countries.&nbsp; 
This event serves as a crucial meeting point for individuals interested in Web3, cryptocurrencies, and mining, bringing together industry players, government officials, heads of funds, investors, promising startups, and renowned crypto investors. 
However, the severe flooding in the host city forced the organizers to put the program on hold, as all roads leading to the event were closed, and they were ill-equipped to handle such a situation.

To ease attendees’ disappointment and show appreciation for their understanding, the organizers released a statement indicating that they are working hard to ensure the event is comfortable for all participants. 
However, they debunked rumors circulating about an airdrop giveaway for program attendees. In a tweet released on their Twitter page, they advised users to disregard such news.&nbsp;
