Attendance was a little light, but we still managed to cover the bases - prepping for EthCC and discussing continued cost reduction strategies for our infrastructure.

The first step to build the future

I passed through Narita International Airport in Tokyo, Japan in 2026, and I got to mint this pretty POAP! NRT handles a large portion of Tokyo's international flights, and is located a bit further out from the city. It opened in the 1970s, and has since become a gateway for travellers coming to and from Japan. This POAP was minted in 2026 as part of a campaign to offer precious digital collectibles to travellers around the world.

I passed through Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila, Philippines in 2026, and I got to mint this pretty POAP! MNL is named after Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr., a Filipino senator and opposition leader. It's the main international gateway to the Philippines, and the busiest airport in the country. This POAP was minted in 2026 as part of a campaign to offer precious digital collectibles to travellers around the world.

This week, the POAP dev team met to reflect on the sacred art of naming things properly, especially when you didn’t. Our ancestors have guided us well before. This time, they left us QR claims.

This week we discuss alternatives for tools and workflow automation.
