Gelato Digital Developer Meetup #1

Happy February, Gelato fam!

Starting this month, we will be hosting bi-monthly developer meetups — a 30-minute Zoom session every other week, and inviting builders and experts from the community to discuss the dapp development process, developer experience, the latest (scoop) around the Ethereum and blockchain world, and so much more.

This Thursday, we’re very excited to have our very own Ari Rodriguez, the cryptographer from Gelato join us and talk about building blocks of threshold signatures.

What are threshold signatures? How are they relevant to blockchain applications? Come hang with us and let’s take a deep dive into the cryptography behind threshold signatures and the way they are being applied to Ethereum projects.

The meetup will be held in the Gelato Zoom on Thursday, February 4, 2021, from 12:00 PM to 12:30 PM ET / 6:00 PM to 6:30 PM CET (Check your local time here).

Our Guest Speaker: Ari Rodriguez

Ari is a cryptographer and software engineer based in New York City. He has worked with a number of start-ups on nascent cryptographic technologies including threshold encryption, multi-party computation, and smart contract design and development.

Please spread the word and tell a friend — we can’t wait to meet a lot of you on Thursday!

Gelato is a protocol that automates smart contract executions on Ethereum. We are building the infrastructure of reliable automation on top of Ethereum and with it a key part of the Web3 middleware stack, enabling trustless, automated flows of money between all smart contracts and upcoming Layer 2 networks.
