Come Say Hello!
First off, we just want to put out a quick call to those who are headed for the Ethereal conference in New York this week. We’ll be in and around the conference during the event except for select times so if you plan on being there, definitely let us know in the comments below. We’ll have our tags and labels on us with @sndbox / @creativecrypto so we should be easy to spot. We’re looking forward to meeting up with other Steemians during Crypto-Week.

As an aside and piece of insight, we’ve actually been working very near the Consensys office in Bushwick and over the last year or so, we’ve seen this area really transform to be a habitat for all things crypto. Particularly the western part of Bushwick has become a haven to blockchain startups, events, and general conversations on the pending revolution for a tokenized world. It doesn’t come as a surprise that the Ethereum co-founder would host their major east-coast event right in this area.
You can read much more about the crypto-related entrepreneurship and changes to the area on one of Bloomberg’s latest articles.

If you do end up making it to the conference, be sure to check Scape Shift 1.0. One of our members, @mintvilla, won one of the Ethereal art grants - crypto awards given to select creative applicants.
Alongside the famous Bitcoin-eating Plantoid, @mintvilla will be showcasing her work implementing Steem and other blockchain systems into Herbert von King Park. Even amongst the main speakers, she’ll be one of the few participants discussing the impact of decentralized systems on civic institutions. She’ll be giving a presentation on Friday at 2pm.
