Dozens of parallel builder events across the city, with an especially strong focus on rollup infrastructure, staking research and account abstraction.
Devconnect Istanbul ran 13-19 November 2023 with the Devconnect Cowork at the Istanbul Congress Center as its hub; the Foundation counted more than 3,500 people at the Cowork alone, with many more at the independent events. Highlights named by the organiser: the Staking Gathering, TrustX, ETHGünü (capacity 2,000), zkSync Connect, StarknetCC, the EVM Summit, Solidity Summit and PROGCRYPTO.
