Execution Day 2024 @ ETHDenver
Rollups are moving beyond the EVM, and the race to find the next big VM is heating up. Join leaders from top VM projects as they share their progress and debate which VMs will come out on top. We're bringing together key projects for a day of lightning talks, presentations, panels and spicy debates.
HOSTED BY FUEL.NETWORK & STRATOS
Entry is first-come, first-served.

Speaker Teams:
RISC Zero is on mission to democratize ZK technology, making its benefits available to developers, organizations, and users everywhere.
Polygon Miden is a modular execution layer that extends Ethereum's capabilities using powerful features such as parallel transaction execution and client-side proving. With Miden, developers can create novel, high throughput, privacy preserving dApps for DeFi, RWA and Autonomous Worlds using their favourite languages such as Rust and TypeScript.
Fuel is a new rollup technology designed from the ground up to scale Ethereum. Powered by the FuelVM, it enables parallel transaction execution and state minimized design on Ethereum. Fuel is soon launching a layer 2 on mainnet Ethereum, offering best-in-class tooling with an all-in-one unified toolchain and smart contract language, Sway.
Movement Labs is an EVM-compatible modular framework to build and deploy Move-based infrastructure, applications, and blockchains in any distributed environment through our proprietary Fractal translator. Movement is building M2: the first MoveVM ZK rollup on Ethereum bringing smart contract security, 145k+ TPS, and modular DA layers like Celestia to Ethereum.
Lumio is the first-ever rollup that brings together the best of Ethereum and Aptos built by Pontem Network.
Cartesi is an app-specific rollup protocol with a virtual machine that runs Linux distributions, creating a richer and broader design space for dApp developers.
Aztec is a privacy-first L2 on Ethereum. Also, the primary contributors to the Noir zkDSL.
