We’re excited to partner with @DeFiHackLabs for ETHTaipei 2026. DeFiHackLabs is a Web3 security community that turns real incidents into open learning resources. Its initiatives reproduce DeFi exploits with Foundry, document root causes, teach common smart contract vulnerabilities, and make past incidents searchable through the Incident Explorer. Through its Web3 Security Academy and BootCamp, the community also brings those lessons into hands-on security practice, helping builders learn from past attacks and build more securely.

SNZ @snzholding joins ETHTaipei 2026 as a partner. SNZ is a research-driven Web3 investment and venture-building institution with deep roots in Asia’s Ethereum ecosystem. Beyond investing in early-stage projects, it supports founders and builders through incubation, community development, and ecosystem connections. Its work also extends to Ethereum community building through initiatives including ETHTAO and the Hong Kong Ethereum Community Hub, connecting builders, institutions, and emerging talent across Asia with the wider Ethereum ecosystem.

What happens when critical Ethereum security work has no natural customer? Pol Lanski @Pol_Lanski, CEO of @dappnode and Curator at TheDAO Security Fund @thedaofund, is joining ETHTaipei 2026. In “The hack that broke Ethereum comes back to save it: The DAO Returns,” Pol will explore how TheDAO Security Fund identifies security needs across Ethereum, turns them into targeted RFPs, finds teams to take them on, and coordinates funders to support work that might otherwise remain unfunded. The goal is simple: help make important Ethereum security work happen when no single protocol or organization can justify funding it alone. Join us at ETHTaipei 2026:

What if cross-chain assets could arrive before the proof does? Alfred Lu @murmurlu, Blockchain Developer at @imTokenOfficial, returns to ETHTaipei this September. Alfred spoke at ETHTaipei 2025, and his work spans Layer 2, ZK proofs, and account systems. In “Assets First, Proofs Later: Building Verifiable Cross-Chain Intents with OIF,” he’ll demonstrate a fast-fill intent between TVM and EVM, where solvers deliver assets first while Hyperlane carries the proof back for OIF settlement. He’ll also unpack the practical challenges behind it, from proof correctness and cross-chain fees to EVM/TVM compatibility. Join ETHTaipei 2026:

We’re excited to partner with Hong Kong Ethereum Community Hub @ethereumhkhub for ETHTaipei 2026. ETH Hong Kong Hub is Asia’s first physical Ethereum community hub, supported by the Ethereum Foundation’s Ethereum Everywhere team and co-operated by SNZ and ETHTAO. From coworking and technical meetups to cross-border conversations, the Hub gives builders, founders, and the wider ecosystem a physical space to meet, collaborate, and exchange ideas. Taipei and Hong Kong are close on the map. We’re excited to bring our Ethereum communities closer too. Join us at ETHTaipei 2026:

We’re glad to partner with Crypto Wesearch 幣研 @CryptoWesearch as a media partner for ETHTaipei 2026. Crypto Wesearch is a crypto media and research platform from Taiwan and Hong Kong, making blockchain and crypto knowledge more accessible to a wider audience. From beginner guides and market analysis to deep dives into DeFi, blockchain ecosystems, and emerging trends, they’ve built a library of 1,000+ in-depth articles reaching over 1.15 million readers.

Hao Chen, Staff Scientist at @CertiK, joins ETHTaipei 2026 to talk about moving smart contract security beyond finding bugs to proving they don’t exist. Hao builds formal verification toolchains for smart contracts, DeFi protocols, zkVMs, and systems software. Previously, he researched systems verification at Yale University, including CertiKOS, and holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science. In “Beyond Finding Bugs: Proving DeFi Safe,” he’ll explore how formal verification can turn key security properties into machine-checked proofs, walking from an informal idea to a formal specification, a counterexample, and finally a proof. He’ll also show how AI can help make this process practical during development. Join us at ETHTaipei 2026. Register now:
