​Join the largest freedom & privacy activism gathering facilitated by the Web3Privacy now collective

​The wind of change is blowing through Ethereum. The time has come to evolve from mass consumption to a culture of high values. Where decentralization, freedom, privacy, and politics are not empty words, but part of activism toward a more just world.

​Here and now, Ethereum has a chance to make a breakthrough - perform a revolutionary act that millions have dreamed of for so long. To accomplish this, today's degens need to evolve into cypherpunks.

​Value-aligned

​We already have powerful cryptography, great scientists, talented developers, active communities, hackathons like ETHBerlin or ETHRome, researchers, and tooling from Railgun to Fluidkey.

​organizations supporting our mission

​Lasting cultural phenomenon

​Focusing on values, active political stance, and cutting-edge research will help Ethereum become a cultural & resilient to change phenomenon.

​
We are talking not only about the existence of privacy-preservation dapps, but Free & Open-source software development, support for free speech and whistleblowers around the world, helping marginalized people get access to the decolonial money system, safe & empowered tech, and last but not least - diverse and active communities of care.

​Ethereum Social Layer (ESL)

​It is being formed before our eyes - an active ecosystem of thousands of thinkers, developers, analysts, human-rights DAOs, coordinators, and even ravers. Inspired by cypherpunks of the past, they create a foundation for the digital community of the future (explore our Cyherpunk personas article). Based on permissionless & censorship-resistance ideology. Follow Paul Dylan-Ennis on ESL.

​Activation

​The debut Ethereum Cypherpunk Congress assembles an active part of Ethereum. These people and organizations want to stand at the foundations of the unstoppable socio-techno-cultural movement.

They are activists, developers, cryptographers, ethical investors, philosophers, and researchers who are changing the possibilities for Ethereum on the path to freedom.

​Hackathon track
Events for developers are critical activation points behind any cultural change. Every protocol from Aztec to Ethereum needs devs to build on top of it & deliver decentralized, permissionless & privacy-enhancing applications. We invited current privacy hackathon devs to reflect on their experience.

​Representation track
Diversity in the web3 industry is a critical challenge, let alone in the privacy market. Let's discuss how we can be more open, diverse & inclusive to different opinions and opportunities.

​Activation track
We want everyone to feel, use and contribute to practical privacy tooling. So we will showcase existing tools empowering your journey in decentralized world: Fileverse, Rotki, Fluidkey, Brume [list is being updated].

​High-level agenda

• ​craft conditions needed to overcome challenges mapped in “Make Ethereum Cypherpunk again” essay

• ​present Ethereum Privacy Ecosystem and its key players

• ​explore socio-cultural conditions re-wiring degens into cypher-activists

• ​build a mainstream culture around cypherpunk - make it an open and inclusive movement

• ​remind of the origins of Ethereum ethos

• ​articulate balance between open-source culture & financial sustainability behind projects

• ​​map the way to onboard 100K developers & 10M users experiencing safe Ethereum-centric privacy tech

​Contribute to the development of the cypherpunk culture of Ethereum. Everyone will be welcome here, from activists defending the rights of developers to degens who finally want to find a strong meaning in life.
