A Night With Tezos: Bake the Stake & Govern On Chain! Also - Devcon Recap

Hi all -

Hard to believe we're already near the end of 2018.

As we look forward to another year of innovation in the smart contract space, we have an intriguing evening lined up for you:

Mike and Lucas from Tezos will join us to give insights into some of the work being done on their "competing" smart contract blockchain.

Tezos is a smart contract blockchain, similar in nature to Ethereum, but differs most notably in it's approach to platform governance. They're asking the hard question of "How do we, as a decentralized community, efficiently make decisions and act upon them?" Their answer: a blockchain with on-chain governance baked in.

We're excited to open our doors, and open our minds, to hear about the fascinating work being done in other vibrant blockchain communities. What lessons can Ethereum learn from the Tezos approach, and vice versa?

Michael Reinhart - The Product Owner at Obsidian Systems working on Tezos. His team is building software for baking, monitoring, and the Ledger Nano S.

Lucas Kozinski - Management Consultant at Point B contracted with the Tezos Foundation. Alongside the Foundation President he led the Betanet launch.

We'll also have a panel discussion highlighting takeaways from Devcon 4. So, if you couldn't make it to Prague, no worries; we'll fill you in.
