Honestly who cares about Jensen's sex life?
Haven't people got better things to care about?

Thankfully I didn't see any of the negative reviews of India for @EFDevcon but for anyone who had a bad time, know that the experience of being taken out of your comfort zone has helped you face some of your fears, and raised your awareness of some of the realities of the world.

What a @EFDevcon!
India bringing community back to its roots. Quality over quantity. Absence of grift. Best devcon food (sry Prague). Abundance of young talent. Lots of love, friendship & smiles. Music stage was perfect. Hubs were great. Talks were lovely. Let's come back soon.

Here's @lightclients introducing Frames, which might end up being the last new transaction type on Ethereum.

Devcon is for the builders.
It's sad to see people start declaring Devcon dead days before it even starts. It isn't in NYC & it isn't, and has never been, focused heavily on institutions and "where the money is". Other conferences fill that gap. Let Devcon do what it's best at.

Never before have I so strongly believed in the need for a movement to resist Ethereum's capture by private interests.
This isn't only the @ethereumfndn's responsibility, it's yours. It's ours. It's everyone's.
If we're not careful, it's going to enshittify beyond being useful.

Y'know, it's not too late to change your mind.
Start by booking your flight to Mumbai. Hotels and tickets to @EFDevcon can come later.
You'll regret it if you don't. It's going to be something else, and India is something else too.

For anyone looking for an authentic experience #afterdevcon, consider Pushkar Camel Fair, 17 to 24 November 2026.
Direct trains run from Mumbai to Ajmer, then it's a short taxi over the hill to Pushkar, the holy city on a holy lake.

If you're coming to @EFDevcon and want to hate on India because of pollution, know that this place is also in India: Nubra Valley, on the Tibetan plateau.
You'll need to do a visa run to be there in summer after the snow melts.
Fun fact: it was on the original Silk Road.

Make sure you participate in the "informal" economy while in India.
Leave your GooglePay and ApplePay at home. Carry cash in small denominations and use it to grease the wheels.
I mean, you *are* the Ethereum community. You know all about fee tipping and bribing validators ;)

If you're coming to @EFDevcon:
Don't Uber, do Rapido. They lead the way in motorcycle taxis.
Don't Uber Eats, do Zomato. They are better connected to the real thing in terms of local food.
Don't pay with card, withdraw cash. This opens the door to authentic experiences.

My first ever talk at Devcon.
Come!
Come!
What’s the point of a self-hosted node if the layer underneath it still depends on centralized infrastructure?🤔
At Devcon 8, @chrishobcroft will unpack deboot & what it takes to make the boot process itself open and verifiable. Catch him on the Open & Verifiable Stack track.
