Summer of Ethereum | Auckland Pit Stop
Join us for an afternoon of conversation, connection, and community building at the Ethereum Auckland Pit Stop, part of LXDAO's global Summer of Ethereum series and to celebrate Ethereum's upcoming 10th birthday! ☀️
Whether you're a builder, creative, enthusiast or curious newcomer, this event is for anyone who wants to explore what drives innovation on Ethereum. ✨
We’ll dive into popular topics shaping Ethereum’s ecosystem:
👉 What is d/acc (decentralized acceleration)?
👉 How do we fund and ensure sustainability for public goods in Ethereum?
👉 Why does privacy matter for collective freedom?
👉 Who is building on Ethereum today?
Expect lightning talks, fireside chats, local stories, and space to meet other open-minded Kiwis right here in Auckland! There will be a 20-minute open-mic segment for builders to share their journey with the audience! 🎙️
