A
Well,
I'm
local
I'm
from
Bogota
and
I'm
so
excited,
and
it's
an
honor
to
have
you
all
you
to
have
all
you
guys
in
in
my
city.
This
is
like
a
dream
for
us,
so
we're
very
thankful
with
the
ethereum
foundation,
because
there
was
a
lot
of
effort.
I
know
the
the
work
that
they
did
for
for
for
having
all
of
us
together
here
and
it's
an
honor
also
to
be
here
today
with
these
amazing
leaders
that
we
we
are
going
to
discuss
about
what
they
are
building
and
to
learn.
A
How-
and
this
is
the
name
of
the
planet-
we
don't
have
it
right
now,
but
wept
by
the
way.
My
name
is
Mauricio
Tovar
from
Tropicals
and
Colombia
guy,
and
we,
the
name
of
the
panel,
is
web
free.
It's
going
great
and
I
want
to
start
asking
that
is
webreed
going
well
and
I'm
going
to
introduce
our
amazing
panelists
Brian
from
zero
s.
Park
Foundation
Guild.
A
Jacob
from
eth
global
amazing
weekend
we
had
here
in
in
Bogota
and
Romina
crypto
chica
from
Atlanta.
Let's
start
with
that
question
guys,
if
you
agreement,
do
you
want
to
start?
Do
you
have
a
microphone?
Okay?
We
we
need
to
share
I,
can
share
it
with
you,
so
you
have
either
it
started.
We
can
start
with
you.
B
Yeah
for
sure,
so
so
it's
a
hard
question
to
start
with
I'm
sad
that
I
came
last
to
answer
it
first,
but
basically
yeah
I.
Think
it's
well,
there's
a
lot
of
improvement
to
do,
but
even
like
when
I
look
one
year
back
to
where
it
was
I.
Think
there's
been
a
lot
of
improvements
and
yeah
I'm,
just
very
glad
to
have
entered
the
ecosystem
and
I
think
there's
again
a
lot
of
improvements
to
do.
But
it's
yeah
there's
like
many
steps,
which
are
kind
of
incremental
increases.
C
I
think
that
web
tree
is
well
right
now
in
all
latan,
because
I'm
from
Argentina
well,
a
lot
of
people
who
are
there
knows
me,
and
there
is
people
from
Honduras,
Ecuador
Mexico
and
a
lot
of
people
from
from
different
countries
from
latam,
and
we
I
think
that
wet
tree
in
the
present
is
is
a
good
tool
for
us
to
have
an
alternative
for
the
different
for
the
traditional
system
between
I
mean
the
the
government,
the
bank
system.
We
we
really
use
crypto
and
blockchain
to
in
our
day
in
Lego
DNA.
That
and.
C
D
D
D
You
know
underserved
communities,
how
they
can
kind
of
serve
like
what
these
new
kind
of
Primitives
that
we've
been
building
in
web3,
so
I
think
like
just
overall,
like
seeing
kind
of
the
the
community
grow
significantly
and
having
smart
people
stay
and
and
continue
building
is
at
least
a
really
positive,
great
sign.
So
I
think
from
that
aspect.
Web3
has
been
going
great
and
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
other
aspects
in
which
it
is.
E
Yeah
I
think
there
are
a
couple
of
different
dimensions,
along
which
we
can
try
to
answer
this
question
first
off
I
think
that
you
know
to
Echo
what
the
other
folks
on
the
panel
have
mentioned.
There
are
a
lot
of
things
that
we
should
be
very
proud
of.
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
really
promising
seeds
around
Community
I'm
really
excited
just
to
see.
You
know
with
Devcon
being
in
Bogota
and
just
looking
at
how
much
Global
activity
there
is
worldwide
around
ethereum
development.
E
I
think
that's
you
know
so
so
promising
to
see
at
the
same
time,
I
think
it's
important
that
we're
continually
taking
a
very
like
critical
perspective
on
what
can
we
doing
better?
What
can
we
be
doing
better?
What
value
have
we
really
created
so
far
right
like
at
the
end
of
the
day?
This
is
technology
that
has
to
impact
end
users
and
I.
Think
that's
been
one
of
the
challenges
you
know
for
web
3.
E
For
you
know
a
long
time,
I
mean
it's
really
fantastic
to
see
that
payments
actually
have
taken
off
and
are
serving
so
many
financially
underserved
people.
You
know
when
our
crew
from
Xerox
Park
came
out
here
to
Bogota
I've,
been
super
surprised
by
how
many
of
our
you
know,
transactions
actually
involve
people
requesting
us
to
send
cryptocurrency.
That's
like
a
really
encouraging
sign.
E
At
the
same
time,
when
we
look
at
like
various
Industries,
for
example,
crypto
gaming
I
would
wager
that
there's
like,
despite
all
the
speculative
hype
around,
that
there
are
fewer
than
10
000
people
in
the
world
who
have
probably
had
a
fun
time
playing
a
crypto
game
and
for
the
size
of
that
industry.
The
industry,
that's
actually
something
that
we
need
to
be
really
critical
of,
and
that
we
should
be
continually
raising
the
bar
and
challenging
ourselves
on
so
I.
Think
that
there's
a
lot
of
promising
seeds.
A
Okay,
I
want
to
talk
later
about
the
Latin,
American
and
real
users,
but
first
of
all,
I
want
to
for
the
audience
to
understand
what
are
your
products,
your
projects?
What
are
the
problems
that
you're
trying
to
solve
and
what
kind
of
impact
does
your
team
hope
to
live
on
the
web,
free
ecosystem
and
the
world
in
general?
Maybe
we're
going
to
start
with
you
yeah.
E
For
sure
so
I
mean
my
answer
to
this
is
going
to
be
a
little
bit,
perhaps
hypocritical,
given
what
I
just
said
about
the
importance
of
of
connecting
end
user,
but
I
do
think
that
there
is
actually
really
a
very
deep
and
important
connection.
So
the
Xerox
Park
Foundation
focuses
on
what
we
call
application,
Level
research
and
development,
and
that
basically
means
trying
to
understand
what
are
the
Technologies
today
that
enable
use
cases,
perhaps
two
to
five
years
out.
Thinking
Beyond
things
like
you
know,
I
know.
E
In
the
last
couple
of
years
there's
been
this
massive
Bull
Run
and
all
this
activity
on
the
application
Level.
But
a
lot
of
it
looks
like
you
know,
quite
incremental
improvements,
things
like.
Oh,
you
know,
let's
build
another
D5
app,
that's
at
like
the
sixth
level
of
financial
engineering
or,
let's
build
you
know,
and
accessibility
is
very
important,
but
once
you
get
to
like
here's,
the
end
wallet
application
with
like
a
marginally
better
mobile
ux
or
something.
E
D
Right,
Jacob,
yeah
sure,
yeah,
so
I
work
with
youth
Global.
What
East
Global
does
is
primarily
kind
of
grow,
the
ethereum
developer
ecosystem
by
bringing
in
web
2
developers,
meaning
where
they
are
helping
them
with
education
through
the
hackathons
that
we
run
like
youth
Bogota
this
past
weekend
and
then
ultimately
kind
of
helping
them
through
that
Journey.
D
D
Global,
is
that
there
are
talented
people
all
around
the
world,
whether
Latin
India
North,
America
Europe,
whatever
there's
just
like
tons
of
talent
in
the
world
and
not
everybody
has
the
same
opportunities
to
kind
of
travel
the
world
or
go
to
the
right
institutions
or
or
whatever.
So
what
do
youth
Global
also
tries
to
do
is
bring
our
events,
our
community,
the
ethereum
community
in
general,
to
these
places
all
around
the
world
and
help
kind
of
kind
of
bolster
their
local
communities
as
much
as
possible
through
our
hackathons
and
our
events.
C
Later
was
created
this
year,
so
we
are
so
young.
It's
a
young
project
and
I
think
that
it
was
created
with
the
vision
of
the
road
to
devcom.
So
I
think
that
we
had
a
lot
of
community
in
latam
I,
don't
know
Chile
Peru,
as
I
said:
Honduras
Ecuador
Argentina.
All
the
countries
has
leaders
has
a
communities.
So
we
try
to
improve
the
connections
between
the
countries
and
the
communities,
and
the
first
step
was
create
idlatan
Buenos
Aires
to
to
have
a
big
event.
C
I
have
problems
with
distance,
but
well
we
had
it
Global
in
20
2018,
but
we
had
a
big
pulse,
a
big
so
many
years,
without
nothing,
just
small
events
and
now
now.
Well,
yes,
it
did
on
Mondays,
we
had
it
and
it
was
a
point
of
meeting
umro
for
all
the
leaders
and
we
had
to
create
our
identity.
If
Latin
is
growing
is
is
involving,
so
we
don't
have
to.
C
B
A
Great
well,
one
thing
that
is
different
from
web
2
is
that
web3
have
a
very
important
actor
in
the
in
in
in
your
projects.
Is
the
community
right?
What
is
the
role
of
your
community
or
in
the
decision
making
of
what
you
do
and
how
you
listen
to
them
and
what
they
they
want?
Let's
start
with
you
this
time
you
have
the
microphone
yeah.
D
Yeah
for
sure
so
I
think
actually
a
big
part
of
Youth
Global's
Journey
over
the
last
little
while
has
been
kind
of
realizing.
Actually
exactly
this.
That
Community
is
centered
to
what
we
do
and
actually
thinking
about
actually
Global.
The
company
is
more
of
kind
of
a
a
project
that
helps
service
that
existing
community
that
we've
been
able
to
build
so
yeah.
From
that
perspective,
we're
certainly
thinking
a
lot
about
different
things
in
which
we
can
do
to
help
support
them.
D
So
we've
been
doing
hackathons,
obviously
over
the
last
few
years,
but
now
we've
also
launched
guides
which
are
kind
of
self-serve
education
platform,
kind
of
think
of
that,
as
like
kind
of
maybe
the
minus
one
to
zero,
the
hackathons
then
being
the
zero
to
one
and
then
we
also
want
to
help
people
on
their
Journey
from
kind
of
going
from
web
to
building
in
web3
for
the
first
time
and
then
joining
a
web
3
company
with
jobs.
So
we
just
announced
jobs
as
well.
D
People
come
through
our
doors,
stay
actually
in
the
audience,
so
hi,
everybody
and
and
and
then
yeah
actually
kind
of
come
into
the
community
and
either
build
something
great
and
kind
of
have
that
be
part
of
the
community
and
their
way
of
kind
of
impacting
it
or
joining
an
existing
project
in
the
space
and
and
taking
it
from
there.
So
we're
just
trying
to
support
people
within
our
community
now
within
you
know
more
different
ways
than
just
the
hackathons
we've
been
doing
traditionally
and.
B
Yeah,
so
basically
what
we
tried
to
do
a
lot
is
so
we
don't
yeah
like
I,
think
it's
nice
for
developers,
because
we
don't
provide
them
like
a
specific.
You
don't
have
to
do
X
Project,
but
you
have
the
flexibility
to
kind
of
choose
what
you're
interested
in
and
kind
of
build
that.
So,
let's
say
you
know
you're
interested
in
integrating
with
lens
protocol.
You
can
do
that.
You
can
have
different
Alternatives
in
that
sense
and
you
can
kind
of
yeah
it's
a
very
free
community.
B
In
the
terms
that
you
know,
every
developer
is
welcome
to
build
whatever
they're
interested
in
and
kind
of
earn
money
for
their
contributions
into
the
community
and
all
the
all
the
resources
we
provide
are
completely
free
and
accessible
all
online.
We
also
like
it's
a
yeah.
It's
a
public
good
for
the
ecosystem
that
we
don't
like
take
anything
from
the
developers
contributing
or
yeah
it
kind
of
just
you
can
meet
other
people.
You
can
network
with
other
people,
create
different
projects
together,
so
yeah
I
think
it's
a
very
core
developer-centric
community
in
that.
E
I
think
that
there's
you
know
one
world
where
you
can
imagine
a
lot
of
the
research
being
done
in
the
space
being
instigated
by
like
monolithic
organizations
that
have
top-down
research
agendas,
which
they
hire,
researchers
for
and
then
you
know,
manage
them
to
hit
specific
research
outcomes
and
I
think
that
this
early
on
in
a
Technologies
life
cycle,
you
know
a
technology
so
early
and
promising
as
ethereum.
We
can't
predict.
E
No
single
person
can
predict
what
the
most
interesting
directions
are
going
to
be,
and
so
we
rely
very
heavily
on
our
community,
and
you
know
we
frame
ourselves
as
largely
in
service
to
a
community
of
people
who
are
really
owning
their
own
Visions.
So
what
we
try
to
do
is
we
try
to
educate
folks,
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
similarities
here,
for
example
with
with
youth
Global,
but
we
take
people
in.
D
F
I
started
being
like
everyone:
I
I
got
double
books,
but
yeah,
hey
I'm
Aaron
from
Cleveland
in
terms
of
the
role
for
for
the
community,
I
I
guess
very
much
depends
on
the
the
context
or
what
kind
of
yeah
the
context
in
in
the
context
of
clear
fund
I.
Think
the
the
role
of
the
community.
There
is
essentially
helping
to
allocate
funds
to
public
goods
projects
so
quadratic
funding.
F
Is
this
really
neat
mechanism
where
you
take
inputs
from
a
whole
bunch
of
different
people
in
in
the
form
of
contributions
to
projects
that
they
value
and
then
quadratic
funding?
The
CLR
mechanism
essentially
spits
out
an
allocation
that
reflects
both
the
preference
and
the
strength
of
preference
of
all
of
the
individuals
in
the
community
that
contributed
to
projects
that
they
value
so
in
the
context
of
clear
fund
I
think
the
community's
biggest
input
is
that
is
helping
to
allocate
funding
to
public
good
great.
Thank.
A
C
To
mention
the
the
impact,
for
example,
I
was
talking
with
Carlos
Melgar
from
Honduras
he's
from
an
Iceland
in
otila
and
we
are
I'm
collaborating
with
with
the
quadratic
funding
team.
The
of
the
ethereum
foundation
and
we
have
to
the
applicant-
has
to
pass
a
kyc
and
Carlos
say
he.
He
told
me
two
days
ago,
I
hired
cryptachika.
How
are
you
I
applied
to
the
quadratic
family
brown
but
I'm
a
bit
worried
because
they
I
they
are
asking
me
for
my
account
and
my
address
and
I
don't
have
address
and
I
said.
C
What
do
you
I
I?
Don't
understand
and
he
told
me
yeah,
because
I
live
in
a
in
an
Iceland,
so
I
don't
have
an
an
account.
We
don't
have
address.
If
you
want
to
go
to
a
house
of
a
friend,
you
have
a
reference,
but
you
don't
have
a
on
a
street
or
a
number
and
I
don't
have
a
personal
account
bank
and
we
paid
our
electricity
and
lights
in
a
prepaid
way.
So
it's
very
different
of
any
capital
or
big
city.
They
have
a
specific
requirements
and
we
have
to
know
like
eat.
C
C
D
A
F
I
mean
for
us
we're
building
on
really
novel
technology,
I
mean
ethereum
itself
is
a
very
novel
technology
and
then
we're
kind
of
taking
that
a
step
further
building
on
top
of
zero
knowledge
proofs
using
may
see
this
minimal
anti-collusion
infrastructure
built
by
privacy
and
scaling
solution
to
a
team
funded
by
the
ethereum
foundation,
and
this
yeah
it's
it's
bleeding
edge
technology.
It's
it's
really
incredible.
F
It
basically
allows
us
to
run
a
quadratic
funding
around
or
kind
of
more
generally
run
a
a
vote
in
a
way
where
the
inputs
are
secret
and
you
have
no
receipts.
So
you
cannot
tell
how
I
voted.
I
cannot
tell
how
you
voted
and
because
of
this
quality,
it
makes
it
much
less
effective
to
attempt
to
collude
to
bribe
to
coerce
people
into
voting
or
contributing
in
a
way
that's
different
from
how
they
would
like.
F
But
building
using
this
stack
of
Novel
technologies
that
upgrading,
frequently
and
not
yet
audited,
have
not
yet
been
tested
at
scale
is
a
constant
challenge.
We
run
into
hiccups
and
roadblocks
and
whatnot
constantly,
but
I
think
that's
part
of
the
challenge.
That's
part
of
what
we
kind
of
sign
up
for
when
we're
again
building
on
this
on
this
stack
of
Novel
technology
on
novel
technology
on
novel
technology
and
the
the
reward
is
really
worth
it.
D
It's
they're
all
huge
undertakings,
so
yeah
I
mean
on
our
end,
I
think
you
know
trying
to
find
ways
to
make
each
Global
more
efficient
as
an
organization
to
empower
other
organizations
to
frankly
just
hire
great
talent
internally
to
be
able
to
do
more
and
more
of
our
mission.
I
think
those
are
probably
some
of
our
biggest
challenges.
Right
now
is
just
just
you
know,
trying
to
do
more
of
what
we're
doing
and
to
support
our
community
even
more.
It's.
B
Yeah
I
could
actually
also
double
click
on
what
Jacob
kind
of
mentioned,
so
at
Bill
Guild,
like
I,
think
we
think
a
lot
about
developer
and
boarding
developer,
tooling
and
education,
and
we
like
create
different
content
or
tools
to
do
that,
but
also
like
try
to
understand
what
is
the
most
effective.
Like
sometimes
you
know,
we
try
to
gather
a
lot
of
people
in
a
telegram
group,
but
that's
not
the
most
effective
way
to
communicate.
B
So
we
try
like
different
ways
to
approach
like
to
create
new
projects,
highlight
the
prototypes,
we're
building,
yeah
I
think,
like
those
are
some
of
the
main
challenges,
because
it's
like
very
new.
We
just
try
to
experiment
with
different
things,
see
what's
going
well
and
kind
of
continue
with
that,
but
again
we're
also
limited
by
size,
and
the
technology
is
kind
of
all
new.
So
building
on
new
technology,
with
small
team,
with
everyone,
learning
they're
like
a
lot
of
challenges,
which
you
kind
of
face
and
determine
what
to
do
next.
At
that
point,.
F
B
E
I'm
gonna
maybe
highlight
another
dimension
of
like
some
of
the
challenges
that
these
kinds
of
orgs
Might
face.
So
I
think
that
in
crypto
and
web3
broadly
there's
this
massive
Iceberg
of
value
creation
across
different
levels
of
the
stack,
whether
that
be
from
Community
Management
or
from
you
know,
maintaining
infrastructure,
open
source
software,
research
and
development.
E
That
kind
of
thing,
and
only
a
small
kind
of
you
know,
relatively
small
tip
of
this
iceberg
is,
is
capable
of
being
value
capturing,
and
so
one
thing
that
is
just
a
difficult
problem
to
face
is
the
incentives
problem
of
you
know.
For
example,
if
you
have
folks
coming
into
the
ecosystem,
how
do
you
get
them
excited
about
contributing
to
all
of
that
core
infrastructure
that
actually,
you
know,
kind
of
powers?
E
Everything
like
it's
both
from
an
incentives
perspective,
as
well
as
from
the
fairness
perspective,
as
well
as
from
a
resource
allocation
perspective.
It's
not
necessarily
going
to
be
sustainable.
If
you
have
people
coming
in,
and
you
know,
there's
a
ton
of
work
being
done
by
open
source
developers.
Community
managers
Educators
a
lot
of
grant
money
coming
in
from
non-profit
foundations,
to
help
support
or
instigate
these
new
kinds
of.
E
You
know
whether
it's
like
product
directions
or
whatever
else
it
is,
and
all
that
all
those
resources
come
flowing
in
and
then
afterwards
you
know
like
a
venture
capital
firm
like
swoops
in
and
sort
of
takes
kind
of,
like
all
of
the
upside
from
that,
and
it
goes
up
to
all
these
LPS
and
not
saying
like
there
isn't
a
like
that.
Capital
markets
are
not
important,
they're,
very
important,
actually
for
driving
specific
types
of
progress
and
Innovation.
E
But
then
there's
this
big
looming
question
around
like
how
do
we
continue
to
incentivize
people
to
work
on
the
things
that
power?
This
whole
thing
that
are
kind
of
under
the
surface
that
don't
have
as
direct
of
a
value
capture
mechanism?
And
that's
one
thing
that
we've
been
you
know
trying
to
think
hard
about
and
I
I
love.
These
experiments
like
protocol
Guild,
and
you
know
everything
that
clear
fund
is
doing
around
supporting
these
public
goods
popular
popularizing.
Those
mechanisms
is
just
as
important
also
as
the
technology
that
that
powers
them.
C
Well,
eat
latan
at
the
at
the
time
we
only
had
to
even
in
the
past,
but
we
we
had
a
lot
of
goals,
some
priorities,
one
of
the
of
our
priorities,
the
education
right.
Now
we
have
some
companies
in
latam,
Who
Made
Who
make
customer
acquisition
in
our
communities.
So
we
try
to
create
communities
like
public
goods
with.
C
Cooperative
and
for
free
for
everyone,
but
we
don't
have
an
external
alternative.
So
one
of
the
goals
of
in
the
future
for
idlatan
is
to
create
an
educational
Hub,
and
it's
very
important
for
us,
because
here
in
latan
there
is
a
lot
of
ghost
chains
and
scammy
chains
and
we
have
the
opportunity
to
connect
with
the
users
and
the
builders
again
in
when
we
experiment
in
the
past
the
defeat
summer.
A
lot
of
people
know
cetheidium
and
knows
nfts
and
then
the
expensive
gas
fees
