Ethereum's biggest gathering ever hit Buenos Aires with 14,500 attendees at Devconnect's first Ethereum Worlds Fair.​

Major announcements dropped:

  • Vitalik unveiled Kohaku privacy wallets
  • Pushed for 100x L1 gas limit increase
  • Bhutan launched national digital ID on Ethereum
  • New Ethereum Interoperability Layer (EIL) unified all L2s

Real-world demos showcased:

  • Tokenized S&P 500 shares
  • Biometric payments
  • Stablecoin remittances for everyday use

From Aave Horizon to Centrifuge RWAs and Chainlink ACE, the week proved Ethereum is evolving beyond crypto into the global settlement layer for money, identity, and governance.​

Beefy shared how their yield architecture is adapting for the next wave of interoperability.​

The question remains: Will ETH price catch up before quantum computing threatens elliptic curve cryptography?
