takeaways from @EFDevcon : city > buenos aires is genuinely beautiful; european vibes with latin soul > people here are super fit; easy to spot people running around parks > inflation has hit the country hard; 1 USD = ~1400 ARS (argentinian peso) > crypto adoption is the highest i've ever seen anywhere > only 3 indian restaurants in the whole city; had a great lunch at “bharat” in olga cossettini > people really love their meat; attendees went crazy for asados, empanadas and beef conference > @symbioticfi sponsored @StakingSummit was actually great; lots of people visited our booth > devconnect venue was massive; a solid showcase of top ethereum projects > @Morpho giving haircuts at their booth was wild > audience quality wasn't top-notch IMO; didn't meet a ton of great devs (probably too far for them to travel) > tons of conversations about the institutional adoption of crypto; every project is focusing on it rn > chatter around the @aave app and the insurance mechanism behind (prob relm guys) > defi moving into institutional adoption; everyone agrees that risk coverage ("insurance") is the missing piece > loved the @ethereumfndn push to unify the ecosystem across L2s, privacy, defi and wallets > everyone’s back to being bullish on ethereum; wild contrast to CT sentiment 6 months ago this was my last crypto conference of the year. back to work 💪
