This week’s Community Hour brought Conway updates, new Game of Life puzzles, and our usual meme challenge highlights—plus a glimpse into the future with the launch of our Buildathon focused on real-time prediction markets. Thanks for tuning in!

This week’s Community Hour featured the usual cadence of updates—meme challenge, game tournaments, and ecosystem news—hosted by Danny, Myz Julz, and Josiah. We also recapped Tuesday’s Developer Workshop, where Mateusz and James demoed their early work on a Linera block explorer, and highlighted our ongoing Developer Survey to help shape the future of our global builder community. ⛓️🌐

Thanks for joining us for Espresso's first-ever Build & Brew Hackathon Pitch Day! We had 12 teams pitch the crosschain apps they built last month as part of our hackathon's Cracking Composability track.

This POAP commemorates Linera’s Community Hour on November 21st, 2024, where we demoed a groundbreaking first: a Web3 app frontend powered by the Linera Web client, running entirely in the browser. Alongside this exciting showcase, we celebrated the creativity of our developer community with highlighted games built on Linera's Testnet Archimedes, explored this week’s meme challenge, and hosted our usual raffle. As always, the call was streamed via X/Twitter and YouTube Live, ensuring all moments are recorded and accessible for the Linera community worldwide. Thank you for joining us as we continue building the future of real-time blockchain technology!

This POAP commemorates Linera’s Testnet Archimedes launch—the first phase of our testnet rollout. This significant milestone marked the transformation of our devnet into a fully decentralized network with validators, enhancing both security and scalability. Our founder, Mathieu Baudet, alongside key validator partners from Luganodes, Everstake, Space and Time, and Argument, shared insights into the importance of this phase and its implications for Linera’s future. Attendees had the chance to explore the innovative microchain technology that positions Linera as a groundbreaking force in the onchain space. As a Bronze Chains holder, this POAP reflects your early involvement and engagement with Linera’s journey.
