Devconnect ARG is the Ethereum World’s Fair: A showcase of apps and an event to connect, build, and accelerate Ethereum adoption.
For six days, La Rural becomes the heart of Devconnect ARG, turning into the Ethereum World’s Fair, with 10K+ builders and newcomers flowing through.
The eight districts of the Ethereum World’s Fair
Just as Nikola Tesla’s electricity system lit up Chicago’s World’s Fair in 1893, when most people still used candles, we’ll showcase what Ethereum can do today to replace old and traditional systems. We’ll dogfood Ethereum on the ground for payments, ticketing, perks, and voting. Additionally, eight districts will highlight Ethereum’s domains. The most relevant teams will be there, demoing their apps and letting you try them hands-on. The districts are:
DeFi
All the power of the financial system, open to anyone with an internet connection. From stablecoins that maintain their value to innovative approaches in lending, borrowing, and payments. All without the need for banks or middlemen.
Social
Ethereum’s tools for organizing people online. Prediction markets, identity, and decentralized social apps show how communities can coordinate, govern, and make decisions together without central authorities.
Hardware & Wallets
Ethereum in the physical world and wallets that unlock the world of Ethereum. Explore self-custodial wallets and devices that empower users to control their assets. Discover how real-world systems can be community-owned.
Privacy
Not everything should be public. Privacy-preserving tech on Ethereum lets people transact, communicate, and build securely while keeping sensitive information hidden. A civil right for the internet age.
Gaming
Games where players own their assets. Characters, items, and virtual land live as NFTs on Ethereum, so you can trade, sell, or carry them into new worlds. Entertainment meets real digital ownership.
AI
Where artificial intelligence meets decentralization. AI agents and tools built with Ethereum are transparent, secure, and open to anyone, not locked inside big companies. Discover how Ethereum enables the future that AI promises, and together how they reshape productivity and trust.
L2
Ethereum’s scaling layer. Layer 2 networks make transactions faster and cheaper without sacrificing security. The place to see how rollups, zk-tech, and new apps bring Ethereum to billions of people.
Collectibles
Digital art, music, and culture onchain. NFTs let artists prove ownership, earn royalties, and connect directly with collectors. A new economy for creativity, where scarcity and authenticity exist online.
