EthStorage — EDCON Super Demo 1st Place Winner

EDCON Super Demo, held as part of EDCON, provides a platform for startups or projects that promote the development of Ethereum technology and its ecosystem. Its purpose is to encourage technological innovation and promote the application and adoption of Ethereum and blockchain in the industry.

After intense competition, EthStorage emerged as the 1st place winner, gaining recognition and the opportunity to present EthStorage on the main stage, attracting significant attention from EDCON participants and the organizing community. Winning the Super Demo has generated numerous inquiries from various organizations, raising expectations for the expansion of the ecosystem and the adoption of use cases in the future.

EDCON Super Demo serves as a platform for projects that promote and advance Ethereum technology and its ecosystem. Out of 100+ teams, approximately 40 teams were given 15 minutes to present their projects to a panel of judges. At the end of the competition, the most innovative projects were awarded, and the top 3 teams were given the opportunity to showcase their projects to the world on the main EDCON conference stage.

World Supercomputer Summit 2023

The inaugural World Supercomputer Summit took place during the same week as EDCON 2023, bringing together individuals passionate about the idea of Ethereum’s world computer.

During the event, participants learned about how topologically heterogeneous p2p networks complement and offer Ethereum consensus boundless computation and storage power through zero-knowledge proof. The event featured experts in verifiable compute, generative AI, zkML, and more, including EthStorage, Hyper Oracle, Modulus Labs, Morph Studio, Poseidon ZKP, Privacy & Scaling Explorations Team, and Worldcoin.

The concept of the World Supercomputer emerged during EthDenver in February and remains a work in progress. Several research areas were outlined over the weekend to ensure comprehensive claims and considerations. The goal is to prioritize and support them through in-depth exploration in the coming months.

The World Supercomputer is a set of topologically heterogeneous peer-to-peer networks connected by a secure databus. While Ethereum consensus maintains its global ledger, the specialized networks scale compute and storage capacity. EthStorage is committed to supporting Ethereum as the World Computer and its ecosystem for the future of DeFi, zkML, AI x Crypto, and more
