ETH Bari 2025♦️
Our first edition brought builders, students, and innovators together in the heart of Puglia.
Here’s a quick look back at what we built together!
We officially concluded this ETH Bari♦️"zero" edition.
It wasn’t easy to launch. My mission was to bring the highest ETH and blockchain quality content I could to the region where I’m from. Given the positive feedback we received, it feels like we nailed it.
During the ETH Bari conference, we touched on topics like DeFi, RWA, tokenization, stablecoins, institutions, Solidity, developer onboarding, security, privacy, digital euro, academic research, and more. All of these topics are super relevant in today’s ecosystem, and we brought speakers who work on them first-hand. We even had our first POAP celebrated by the POAP community.
If you missed the conference, follow @ethereumbari. We will upload all the recorded sessions so you can check them on-demand.
Then, we held a 3-day workshop run by urbe.eth where every student learned the basics to develop a mini application on @base and @farcaster_xyz. @crypto_lippo_49 was just the best patiently going 1-by-1 through every single laptop's error. We’re now even looking at joining the ETH Rome Hackathon with an ETH Bari dev team delegation. Insane.
We won’t wait until the next year conference. We’re already working on the next activities: base batches hackathon online, regular online tech meet-ups, and more. Follow our Telegram community (https://t.co/LfgeibFHSB) to remain up-to-date
Beyond the number of attendees, what I’m most proud of is knowing that there were people coming from Foggia, Matera, Brindisi, taking a 2-hour train/car one way just to participate or even asking for a work day off to join (yes, next time we’ll do it over the weekend).
Puglia is such an untapped territory. With the presence of several universities and the desire to prove yourself given the local economic/work conditions, this mix creates an unique drive to learn and build that most other places don’t have. That’s the secret sauce for ETH Bari. And we’re going to make it flourish.
So many people and communities to thank: @matteotambussi, Debora, Antonio, Griet, @mariamagenes1, @biafffff, Valerio Leo, @limone_eth, @ijaack94, Elisea Paolino, Livio Lombardo, Gabriele Martemucci, Marina Mongiello, Giulio Albano, Spazio Murat, @SpaghettEth, @urbeEth, UniCrypto, Global Shapers Bari, PugliaTechs, Apulian Chain, Hoken Tech, CryptoGirl
Just listing them makes me realize how big this event truly was. Thanks!
So, are you coming next year (WIP)?
a few weeks ago I got accepted in @AvaxTeam1 , and that made me think about how avalanche gets serious even when it comes to a simple program to build community and accelerate growth
they don't just hire a bunch of devrels and evangelists to go out and talk at conferences
they literally spin off a new entity whose sole goal is to drive awareness to avalanche (goal of the foundation) and push their tech to developers (goal of ava labs)
this is next level execution from master @cryptochimba
so since i'm a member of that now, i'll drive more awareness for avalanche in italy
you may already have seen some indications of that at @NapulETH , @ethereumbari , but we have many more activations planned and in planning, thanks to the coordination of @mig_crypto
sometimes things just happen under the hood, and the effects are seen way further down the road
an avalanche effect, as they say
Last day of Urbe Campus @ethereumbari has arrived.
New builders onboarded → from zero to shipping their first onchain app. 🚀
Big thanks to @BuildOnBase, @OnlyDust_com & @ENS_DAO for powering the journey.
See ya at the next one, @ETHRome 👀
Day 2 of Urbe Campus, @ethereumbari edition 🇮🇹
Today, we turned ideas into code.
Students learned how to “vibe code” their first full-stack dApp with Cursor, building, testing, and laughing along the way.
None of this would happen without @BuildOnBase, @OnlyDust_com and @ENS_DAO backing the next generation of builders.
From notebooks to shipping code… It’s happening in Bari.
Day 1 of Urbe Campus – @ethereumbari edition just kicked off! 🇮🇹
Students got their first taste of Web3 today:
🔹 What blockchain & Ethereum are
🔹 Wallets & smart contracts
🔹 Real-world Web3 use cases
The journey of onboarding new builders has just begun, and it’s happening thanks to @Base , @OnlyDust_com and @ENS_DAO 🙏🏻
A historic moment for Bari, Italy 🇮🇹
The very first @ethereum conference hosted in the City is currently underway, and they've issued this beautiful @poapxyz digital collectible for attendees to commemorate the occasion.
Bellissimo @ethereumbari 👏
