We are preparing the "Cyber future on Parachains" online event. We decided to organise this event to educate the community and share the latest development on Polkadot.
The event will be run in two parts, 1 per week spread across two consecutive weeks.
Leading up to the event we are intending to produce engaging content to be spread across social media.
1st session:
DeFi use cases and developer focused component
The first session will be focused on Polkadot introduction:
General overview and introduction to Acala - a DeFi parachain on Polkadot. This session will aim for introduction into the Polkadot ecosystem for newcomers and beginners and encourage them to get involved as a developer on Polkadot and Kusama, DeFi on Polkadot and data querying on Polkadot and Kusama.
2nd Session
Culture, ecosystem building and crypto entrepreneurship in the polkadot ecosystem.
The event will be focused on Art on Kusama and Polkadot with speakers that are working on NFT protocols and standards for the Kusama network. This session will aim for Polkadot art in general, NFT minting on Kusama and how it works, on chain standard for custom notes on Kusama protocol (RMRK). We will also share in this session the fascinating business case of how Polkadot became a phenomenal case study of how to grow the global open source ecosystem harnessing the Chinese developer ecosystem that is spread across the world.
