ZK summer has been packed with opportunities for IRL connection with the ZKsync community––from nearly 30 events at EthCC to visiting Ethereum’s birthplace at EthToronto and making new frens at EthArgentina, EthWarsaw, and Stanford Blockchain Conference.
September will be even more eventful, with the ZKsync community participating in Korea Blockchain Week, ABCDE ZKCamp, EthCon, Epic Web3, EthSingapore, TimeStamp, TOKEN2049, Permissionless, DappCon, ZKSummit10, and more.
