EthDenver 2022 Mashup | Live On The Main Event Floor

Today we have a very special episode. Our team traveled to ETHDenver 2022 and recorded a few conversations with projects in attendance. We had a very ambitious goal to visit as many of the booths as we could. But, as you may have realized if you were also in attendance, that was near impossible. Not simply because of the sheer number of participants, but also because of the energy around those booths. There were hundreds of people around them, from the first floor to the third. We hope the conversations that we were able to get for you, give you a taste of the incredible diversity of projects and the enthusiasm around the event. We truly hope you enjoy these candid conversations from ETHDenver.
