ETHDenver 2024
Year of the SporkWhale
February 23 - March 3, 2024
Explore the World's Largest #BUIDL Festival
ETHDenver is a community owned innovation festival
With the genesis of SporkDAO in June of 2021, ETHDenver became the first event DAO in the world. All event proceeds are used to #BUIDL value for our community and to realize the decentralized future.
2024 is The Year of the SporkWhale. SporkWhales are peak contributors to the SporkDAO ecosystem. They #BUIDL, submit projects, create, and frolic in the Bufficorn Sea. Known for their large troves of $SPORK, SporkWhales are indeed a curious and fantastical member of the Bufficorn family.
