This POAP commemorates the Linera x Space and Time Space on November 20th, 2024. The session explored how Linera’s microchains and Space and Time’s Proof of SQL ZK coprocessor are transforming Web3 by enabling real-time, provable data querying and decentralized scalability. With insights from Mathieu Baudet (Linera Founder & CEO), Stephen Hilton (SxT Head of Solutions), Danny Greene (Linera Ecosystem Lead), and Catherine Daly (SxT Head of Marketing), attendees learned how this integration enhances high-speed, trustless transactions and multi-chain interoperability for next-gen decentralized applications.

Abstracting Complexity, Unlocking Opportunity: Simplified Web3 Development & Rewards for Open Source Projects Speakers: Max Howell, Founder & CEO Mawadda Basir, Head of Product Through this workshop, attendees will learn strategies and implementation examples for utilizing account abstraction to smooth the transition for web2 developers into web3 while enabling new reward, ownership, and recognition opportunities for open source project contributors through simplified interactions for their users. We will showcase demos using our app, tea, which leverages these techniques to empower open source project ownership and decentralized community rewards.
