I know you’re just dying to know what they are, so without further ado, EthCC[7]’s daily tracks:

July 8

• Decentralised Finance: Finance, but open, decentralised, permissionless and autonomous.
• EthCC Mashup: Don’t know where you fit? here’s for you, misfit.
• Security: don’t get hacked, don’t get break things, if it’s broken, how do you fix it? Protect the end users and detect the abusers.

July 9

• Blockchain for Good: Heal the world, make it a better place. For you and for me and for the entire human race. There are people dying, if you care enough for the living, make a better place for you and for me.
• Onboarding, Wallets & Abstraction: Mass adoption enablers. Blockchain wallets — but kid tested, grandmother approved.
• Enterprise & Regulation: Pay your taxes and don’t go to jail. Blockchain for suits who are too cool for school.

July 10

• Rollups & Scaling Solutions: they see us rollin’, they lovin’. Road to 1 billion+ transactions per second.
• Gaming & Autonomous World: Games — but open, decentralised, permissionless and autonomous.
• Culture & NFTs: overpriced jpegs and a cypherpunk attitude.
• Token Engineering (Curated by TE Academy): groundbreaking novel Web3 business models and their underlying token incentive mechanisms; token-based selection, ranking and voting mechanisms; cutting-edge advancements in verification and optimisation techniques; the development of tools, data analytics and AI in token engineering, tokenomics, token design and cryptoeconomics.

July 11

A small note to speakers: You must apply for a specific track, so please be sure you’re available to speak on the day of said track. We will not move the daily programme tracks around to accommodate speaker schedules 😉
