Houston Crypto Meetup #29

What’s on the table for this event?
​Join us for an evening diving into the real-world security challenges facing Web3 teams and what it takes to build a defensible crypto operation.

​Pedro Anderson, VP of Growth at Hacken, will share practical lessons drawn from his team's work across smart contract audits, continuous monitoring, and incident readiness. His talk, Operational Security for Crypto: From Audits to Always-On Defense, will cut through the noise and focus on what crypto teams can actually do today to reduce real-world risk.

Pedro brings a rare combination of security expertise and founder experience, having built and scaled multiple startups, including Winding Tree, Simard OU, Benvenuti AI, and Firefly, before joining Hacken to help Web3 teams strengthen their security posture.
