VM Day @Devconnect Istanbul 2023 – As rollup solutions scale Ethereum’s execution, a subset is diverging from the EVM. These teams are introducing alternative VMs, opening up a vast new design space for execution.
Join us for an afternoon to learn and engage with the builders behind these cutting-edge execution environments. Together, we’ll delve into the intricacies, weigh the trade-offs, and unearth the transformative use cases these solutions unlock.
This event is part of Devconnect 2023, a week-long gathering that features independent Ethereum events bringing together brightest minds, passionate builders, and inquisitive researchers to forge new connections and ignite innovation.
