Biggest takeaway? We needed more hands to cover key roles - something to improve for next time, if there is any! That said, the strongest point was the organic networking and building, which set this apart from more structured, commercial conferences.
For future events - if any! - Hackathons will need dedicated time slots in the future, given the time constraints. The art side of things isn’t over yet—the exhibition will keep going for another month.
The event started a bit messy, but the quality of people made it flow naturally, creating a unique and engaging atmosphere. Overall, a great experience, and we’ll keep iterating for the next one.
We’ll send out a survey soon to gather more feedback. Huge thanks to our sponsors and media partners for making this happen - appreciate the support.
On Communities:
Lastly, while both commercial and less commercial events are needed there is something that doesn't beat Bitcoin Culture which are Bitcoin-only Meetups.
If we are in a position to give some advice: Make sure you engage with your local community since people behind it are most likely the ones who can able to bootstrap new comers while keeping trust and accountability in place.
Luckily today we have most tools to filter out those who are leeching off others PoW and the genuine ones trailblazing on their own terms. On our side definitely one of the biggest lessons learnt was to work with the local Communities for future events - regardless - this time we managed to get it done with our hands, will and not much else since *most* tools used have been FOSS and that's why we are here for !
With that said and while continuously gathering more feedback these coming days....
