CENNZnet Mainnet Launch: Blockchain Built in Rust

During the monthly Rust meetup, we'll explore two topics:

To celebrate the recent launch of CENNZnet Azalea Network, we'd like to present you with an introduction of blockchain technology built entirely in Rust along with various aspects of our blockchain network CENNZnet.
​
We will first walk you through some of the key concepts used in a blockchain system and how we are doing it differently. We will then discuss the network architecture implemented for CENNZnet and how it's currently deployed. We will wrap up the talk with some interesting features of CENNZnet and real life use case examples, Sylo and Centrapay.

After the first part Max has proposed we gather in a round table discussion about:
How to improve Rust and Crates docs.

1. What was hard about learning Rust initially
2. What are the common friction points once you know the basics and start coding
3. Same for more experienced coders
4. Throw around some ideas how the docs can be improved
5. Experience contributing code and ideas

Feel free to bring your ideas for that.

This month we'll run the first time an in-person event after the long social distancing and lockdown periods.

Looking forward to some social interactions at the Grid-AKL co-working
