What is it?

The ethDenver hack-a-thon and generic web3 palooza is taking place from February 11–20, with an estimated 20k attendees this year.

What’s happening?

The event includes a hack-a-thon with over 500k in prizes and bounties spread out across several tracks. #BUIDL week kicks off on the 11th at the Art Hotel and continues until the 17th. The in-person hack-a-thon may transition to a virtual hack-a-thon after the conference is concluded.

The main event begins on the 17th and includes significant keynote speakers before ending with an awards ceremony for winning hack-a-thon projects followed by an after-party.

After the conference, there is a retreat in the Rocky Mountains at the Breckenridge Mountain Resort. Conference events and socials will also take place amidst the fun in the snow.

How to get involved?

There are some stirrings to get a few official DeSci events on the calendar. If you would like to participate in any conference events or apply for a travel grant please complete this registration form.
