Blockchain Devfest 2025: Where Potential Meets Game-Changing Opportunity
Decentralization's brightest minds collide with Web3's deepest pockets
THE UNOFFICIAL JOB FAIR OF CRYPTO SUMMER
Forget "networking"—this is where coders get VC term sheets scribbled on napkins. The 2025 Devfest roster reads like a who's-who of projects that actually shipped mainnet (and a few that just shipped promises).
HIRING FRENZY MEETS TALENT DROUGHT
Recruiters are offering signing bonuses in ETH—volatility included at no extra charge. Meanwhile, devs who can write Rust without Googling command salaries that'd make a Goldman MD blush (before their bonus gets clawed back).
One hedge fund panelist joked: "We're just here to find someone who understands our "tokenomics" PowerPoint."

Who Should Join?
The Blockchain Devfest is open to all people in tech and non-tech persons ranging from developers,
engineers (Web2 & Web3), Blockchain startups and tech entrepreneurs, designers, product managers, analysts, students, and enthusiasts curious about Web3. Venture capital firms and ecosystem partners are all welcome to join the discussions about the trends in the web3 space.
