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. The projects featured in this episode are listed below in the show notes.
To learn more about ETHDenver, please go to ETHDenver.com and on Twitter at @EthereumDenver.

The Missing Piece of Web3 Infrastructure | Jaf from EPNS
Today we're talking with Jaf, Product and Development Lead at Ethereum Push Notification Service (EPNS); which positions itself as the protocol for blockchain based notifications that are chain agnostic, platform independent, and incentivized. Some of the use cases we discuss are loan liquidation notifications, ENS name expiration notifications, and becoming a tool for DAO governance that allows members to vote directly from the notification. As Jaf says, EPNS is a tool for reactive and proactive management.
We hope you enjoy this conversation. If you’d like to learn more about EPNS you can visit epns.io or find them at Twitter.com/EPNSproject
