#ETHSofia Conference and Hackathon, the first-ever Ethereum and altcoins technology event in Bulgaria, fulfills the ambition of enlisting world-class speakers and partners.

The three-day hackathon and two-day conference kicking off on October 17th puts Bulgaria on the blockchain innovation map. Exactly one month before Sofia Tech Park welcomes crypto enthusiasts from Bulgaria and abroad, the ETHSofia team reveals another group of industry heavyweights joining and supporting the event.

#ETHSofia Attracts Top-Notch Partners,

Three massive crypto companies join the ETHSofia Conference as Platinum Partners. The world’s largest digital assets exchange Binance, the Layer-1 blockchain for Real-World Assets (RWAs) tokenization MANTRA, and the decentralized infrastructure for cross-chain settlement THORChain are taking ETHSofia to the next level with the CEO of Binance France David Prinçay, MANTRA’s CEO and co-founder John Patrick Mullin, and THORChain’s Founder JP Thor all landing in Sofia this October. Thus, ETHSofia became the first ETH community event in the region supported by Binance.

And that’s not all. Ethereum-based modular lending platform Euler, which just launched its v2, and distributed ETH re/staking network SSV are joining as partners to the event. Tech talent recruiter Remote IT World will be there too to scout for IT talent, while the international crypto ATM provider Bitomat is bringing a crypto ATM with 0-fee ETH purchase and withdrawals enabled.

THORChain and Euler also extend their support to the ETHSofia Hackathon, targeting Bulgaria’s next generation of blockchain innovators. The fast, secure, and affordable Layer-1 chain Sui, the world’s largest omnichain data network for AI Chainbase, and the Blockchain and DLT Standardization initiative Seeblocks are all looking forward to meeting Bulgaria’s tech talent for the first time ever.
