And...it's a wrap! Hawaii's first blockchain summit on Monday was an incredible day of more than 100 people from the local #Web3 community coming together, with blockchain-curious folks joining the event to learn about what this technology means for their respective industries. It would not have been possible without the support of sponsors - Aptos Foundation, HackRight, The Brandy Camacho Show, Blockchain Billiards, Hawaii Technology Development Corporation, Coinsub and Tapiki ?? We are also thankful for our in-kind sponsors, Alaska Airlines, Lyft, and POAP Studio ?? The summit kicked off with beautiful blessings from Kahu Aukai Kekoa, followed by an inspirational keynote from Senator Chris Lee. Avery Ching, co-founder and CTO of Aptos Labs (and a Punahou alumni) gave his insights and advice about building one of the largest blockchain networks in the world during the fireside chat. Panels of amazing speakers who generously shared their knowledge and experience building, working and investing in Web3 companies left attendees with so much to take away and contemplate. A huge shout-out to volunteers who helped with the logistics of the event and ensuring that the day ran smoothly. This is only just the beginning -- the summit will be back next year, bigger and better! ?? : Lance Roylo and team at HelloMomentum #hawaiiblockchainsummit

The meaning of "community" is being reinvented in #Web3, and there is no better person to speak about that than Rosie Riddle, Director of Global Community Support at Consensys! We asked Rosie for a piece of advice for anyone looking to kickstart their journey into Web3: ?? "The best way to learn more about and engage in web3 is to plug into communities and DAOs. Identify what aspect of blockchain technology interests you and find the community around that innovation on Discord, Telegram, etc. I have found that web3 communities are very inclusive and excited to welcome in new people that want to learn more. Ask questions and make connections. Go down the rabbit holes and explore." Learn more from Rosie at the upcoming Hawaii Blockchain Summit on September 16, Monday!

The quality of content at conferences is as good as its speakers and moderators! The Hawaii Blockchain Summit is thankful for Sean C., who will be moderating the "The Future is Web3" panel. Sean leads accounting and operational finance Eco and is also a co-lead for the Blockchain In Paradise meetup group here on Honolulu. We asked Sean why he thinks #Web3 is the future: ?? "Web3 is the future because it enables the development of the internet’s native economy through #decentralized technologies. The internet’s economy means that financial services, art, games, and even social interactions can exist entirely online in ways that weren’t possible before. The development of the cryptoeconomy is similar to how new countries form and expand. Just like how modern America was built by moving west and exploring new frontiers, #crypto represents the next frontier in global economic expansion." Want to hear more? Join Sean and other blockchain experts on September 16th.
