ETHDenver is the largest, most widely attended Ethereum event each year. With roughly 10,000 attendees expected throughout February 11–21, 2022, the team at Reef is making the most of this opportunity to bring more awareness to blockchain technology and the freedom it provides people, and how Reef’s budding ecosystem will benefit users, especially those just getting started on their Web3 journey.

The Reef Metawall was in production from February 5–7 by local graffiti artists TukeOne, Mike Graves, and Emit One DF. It will be on display in downtown Denver, Colorado starting February 8, 2022, remaining in place until February 28. These amazing artists will paint a mural that represents a collaboration of multiple wall art styles, and is designed to be a “Welcome to Denver” piece in partnership with Reef! 🐠 Diversity, collaboration, equity, harmony and participation are the values that will be on display, and we can’t wait for everyone in the Denver area to be able to see it.

You can find the Reef Metawall now at 11th and Lincoln in downtown Denver, Colorado.

Viewers will be able to learn more about the Reef ecosystem, and earn an opportunity to take home some Reef merchandise, by taking photos of the Reef Metawall and posting them on Twitter or Instagram with the hashtag #ReefMetawall. Winners will be selected and contacted during ETHDenver, and they will be able to pick up the merchandise at Reef’s booth inside the Web3 Castle! We will also be running contests for a chance to win a comfy Reef sweatshirt and t-shirt, and more.

TukeOne also designed these shirts for the Reef community, and we’re really excited to see people wearing them later this month!

Before the unveiling, here is a sneak peak of the work that was being completed over the past few days, with photos taken by Russell Geminden during this past wintry weekend in Denver. Kudos to Emit, Mike and Tuke for braving the weather!

We are so excited to have a large portion of the Reef team at ETHDenver, with more news to come over the next two weeks prior to, and during the event! So many friends and colleagues to reconnect with, and also to meet in person for the first time.
