The event featured a panel of four influential speakers: Daiana Marculescu our Ecosystem Lead, Andrei Hristescu, Daniel Pavel, and Adrian 0x1dad, all sharing their expertise on the latest trends in the Solana ecosystem and the broader web3 space. The panel discussed the significance of community building within blockchain and shared insights into how Romanian projects are already leveraging the Solana ecosystem.
In addition to the insightful panel, the event also featured a Demo Day, showcasing innovative projects. One particularly interesting project presented was a tool designed to predict Bitcoin price fluctuations, offering users a platform to guess whether the price will go up or down.
On September 4th, we proudly hosted the first-ever Comets of Web3 and Solana Community Event in Bucharest, marking a new milestone in the Romanian blockchain landscape.
This event also served as a celebration of our first cohort of developers who successfully completed the First Romanian Solana Developer Program. Their work is a reflection of the potential of Romanian talent in the blockchain sector. We couldn't be prouder of their contributions and look forward to the solutions they will bring to life within the Solana ecosystem.
The event was also a significant networking opportunity, with 100 blockchain builders that registered, eager to connect, share ideas, and explore potential partnerships. As Romania continues to emerge as a hub for blockchain innovation, this event cemented its place as a key player in the global web3 community.
Among the blockchain builders who joined us at the event was Marius Buraga, a Full Stack Javascript & Web3 Developer, presented his project at the Demo Day about Predicting Bitcoin's next move offering a unique approach to tracking and analyzing price trends in the crypto space.
We also met Marius Oprea, a Software Developer at DRÄXLMAIER Group, he showcased his project "Buy me a Coffee" . His project is a donation solution built on Solana, showcasing how blockchain can facilitate simple and secure donations.
