We cater to all skill levels. Presentations include context for beginners while diving deep enough to engage experienced developers. Don't worry if you don't understand everything - questions are encouraged and learning is collaborative.

What to Bring

Yourself and your curiosity! For workshop sessions, bring a laptop. Having a Bitcoin wallet (mobile or hardware) can be useful but isn't required. We'll provide any other materials needed.

Atmosphere

Expect a casual, friendly environment focused on learning and building. People are genuinely excited to share knowledge and help each other. Don't be shy - introduce yourself and ask questions!
