Last week I travelled to the North Pole to film 100 core developers building Ethereum.
But there was a twist...
They had 5 days to build the first devnet for Glamsterdam, Ethereum’s next major upgrade, helping secure a $500 billion network.
It was the most magical experience of my life.
I’ve never experienced energy like it.
It very quickly became, to me, the ultimate hackathon.
With the stakes of Ethereum’s uptime.
But how does anything stay together when no one is in charge?
At one point
@TimBeiko said: “we're about to turn 1 month of async work into 1 day”...
From 4am technical drama (shit gets hot),
To the most beautiful coordination between client teams,
All the way to people really explaining why they do this.
These are THE heroes you’ve never heard of.
This is about the people keeping Ethereum alive.
This is THE story.
The people who have put a decade of work into Ethereum’s uptime.
Full documentary coming soon.
