Why come to the Harvard Blockchain x EasyA Hackathon

The Harvard Blockchain x EasyA Hackathon is the official hackathon for the Harvard Blockchain Conference, with speakers ranging from Vitalik Buterin (Ethereum Co-founder), to Nikil Viswanathan (Alchemy Co-Founder) to Rohit Wad (CTO of Binance), and many more. Want to learn more about being a founder? Meet the founders of Web3 giants Aave, Arbitrum, Alchemy, and Polygon all IRL 🤩. Want funding? Network with top VCs from a16z, Paradigm, Pantera, Binance Labs, Electric Capital and more! 💰

This stellar roster of speakers is coming together for the Harvard Blockchain Conference, which is far more than just an ordinary hackathon. Hack alongside Web3's biggest thought leaders, ask them questions as you get stuck, and come to key fireside chats and panels to kick-start your project.

You definitely won't want to miss this one!
