ETHDENVER has been a big part of life for many years, starting with involvement in 2019. From throwing secret all-night parties to becoming the creative steward in 2025, this journey has included producing sister events, DJing the closing party, producing the SporkDAO token launch, and creating EthDome, a Makerspace DJ chill area and inspiration zone that became a safe zone and superheroes' hideout. ETHDENVER is the world's largest and longest-running Ethereum hackathon and conference.
ETHDENVER has been a big part of life for many years. First getting involved in 2019, the journey started with throwing secret all-night parties within ETHDENVER, making lots of friends, presenting the work being developed, and meeting heroes who were working on things that were also inspiring. This initial involvement created deep connections within the Ethereum and Web3 community.
Since those early days, involvement has been extensive and multifaceted. Producing sister events, DJing the closing party, producing the SporkDAO token launch (the community DAO that owns ETHDENVER), renting equipment over the years, and being a supportive part of the community have all been part of this ongoing relationship with the world's largest and longest-running Ethereum hackathon and conference.
In 2025, this journey reached a new milestone with becoming ETHDENVER's creative steward, bringing the EthDome concept to life, a Makerspace DJ chill area and inspiration zone that became a safe zone and superheroes' hideout. Maintaining a very strong vibe and uplifting everybody who came into contact with it created a really, really, really special thing that embodied the spirit of ETHDENVER.
