Jake Hall presents "The Ultimate Vibe Coding Guide for Hackathons," introducing Task-Driven Development (TDD) as an AI-powered alternative to Test-Driven Development. He demonstrates using AI tools like Cursor and models such as GPT-3 and Claude to structure and automate coding workflows, specifically for hackathon projects. The session focuses on building a custom plugin for the Hedera Agent Kit, integrating with Meme Job Fund (a Web3 token platform), and emphasizes the importance of creating a Product Requirements Document (PRD) to anchor AI outputs and prevent hallucinations. Jake details a step-by-step process: drafting a PRD, generating granular tasks, and iteratively collaborating with AI to implement features, referencing documentation and existing code for context. He highlights best practices for context management, task validation, and parallelizing work, aiming to boost productivity and maintainability in rapid development environments. The talk concludes with a recap of the TDD workflow and encourages hands-on exploration. 00:00 Introduction 00:29 Task-Driven Development Overview 01:19 Repo and Hackathon-Specific Rules 01:36 Hedera Agent Kit & Project Context 02:44 Plugin Objective & Workflow Steps 03:08 Step 1: Creating the PRD 04:19 Context Engineering & Referencing Docs 05:24 Choosing AI Models & Prompt Engineering 06:16 Clarifying Questions & PRD Anchoring 07:20 PRD Structure & Task Generation 08:37 Q&A: Managing Context 09:29 Step 2: Creating Tasks 10:40 Reviewing & Adjusting Tasks 12:04 Implementation Phase & Parallelization 14:14 CLI Tools & Productivity Tips 15:14 Adding Context for Implementation 16:17 Managing Chat Contexts 17:22 Monitoring AI Progress & Reference Tools 18:48 Plugin Creation & LangChain Integration 19:42 Final Steps & Time Constraints 20:17 Recap & Best Practices 21:00 Conclusion & Q&A _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 🇫🇷 *ETHGlobal Cannes* This workshop is specifically for ETHGlobal Cannes, a 3-day hackathon held July 4-6, bringing together the most skilled web3 developers, designers and product builders from all around the globe for a weekend-long adventure to advance the Ethereum ecosystem!

David Hoffman, Co-founder of Bankless, presents "10 Objectively True Reasons ETH is Bullish," focusing on Ethereum's strengths with minimal hype. He highlights ETH's ultra-low inflation, even lower than Bitcoin, making it the most sustainable and scarce layer 1 asset. Ethereum's DeFi ecosystem creates strong reservation demand for ETH, with a significant portion locked in protocols, making it the world's most productive asset via "money legos." Ethereum is engineered for longevity, with multiple clients and a focus on resilience and credible neutrality. Major brands and institutions like Circle, Robinhood, BlackRock, and Wall Street are building on Ethereum, leveraging the EVM as a new industry standard. Ethereum's adaptability and transparent governance foster trust, while institutional adoption (e.g., Tom Lee, pension funds) underscores its value proposition. ETH uniquely balances monetary soundness, programmability, and upgradability, occupying a singular position in crypto—there is "no second best." The talk aims to dispel "Ethereum Derangement" and reinforce ETH's foundational role in the future of finance. 00:00 Introduction 00:39 Purpose: Objective Bullish ETH Reasons 02:05 Reason 1: Lowest Inflation of Any Layer 1 04:14 Reason 2: DeFi and Reservation Demand 05:31 Reason 3: ETH as the Most Productive Asset 06:34 Reason 4: Longevity and Store of Value 07:42 Reason 5: Ethereum’s Unique Brand and Institutional Adoption 09:24 Vitalik’s Vision and Brand Trust 10:33 Reason 6: 100% Uptime and Institutional Trust 11:24 EVM Network Effects and Corporate Chains 12:55 Reason 7: Adaptability and Open Governance 13:44 Institutional Bullishness (Tom Lee, Pension Funds) 15:17 Reason 8: ETH Earned Its Position 15:39 Reason 9: No Second Best—ETH’s Unique Middle Ground 16:42 Conclusion: Curing Ethereum Derangement _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 🇺🇸 *Pragma New York* Pragma New York 2025 was held on August 14th at Vesper Events in Brooklyn, New York and was an in-person summit for builders and leaders in the web3 ecosystem.

Conflux - Web3 UX Unconference · Nov 16, 2023

No description The video features an opening speech from a conference in Istanbul addressing the UX community. Despite regional challenges and the absence of some colleagues, the speaker appreciates attendees' presence at DevConnect and encourages them to enjoy the additional activities available, including Turkish ice cream and coffee. The speech explains that the UXLand conference is an "un-conference," where participants create the event by discussing topics of interest to them. The conference has no sponsors or volunteers but is supported by the Ethereum Foundation and DevConnect. The speaker emphasizes that the success of the event depends on attendee participation and stresses that it's a collaborative environment rather than a platform for promoting individual projects. Attendees represent various professional backgrounds, with product development, engineering, and design being prominent. Key topics for discussion include account extraction, user onboarding, Web3 design principles, and general adoption within the ecosystem. Working groups will form to delve deeper into these areas in a collaborative setting with provided tools like FigJam for documentation. The speaker also mentions a goal of creating memorable ways (memes) to communicate complex UX concepts outside of the conference to foster broader understanding and excitement. An example given is "4337," which has gained attention despite many not fully understanding it. The video outlines rules for speakers, including strict time limits,
