Events

Codex was deeply involved at EthCC 2024 in Brussels, Belgium, from July 8 to 11th. Research engineer Ben from Codex gave a talk called '‘Codex: Data Durability Engine & DSN’' for Depin:Con during EthCC, exploring the frontiers of decentralised data storage and durability.

During Web3Social Day, put on by @realMaskNetwork, the team provided a 'Data Durability Engine' workshop on using Codex. Researchers Ben, Eric, and Tomasz led the workshop, walking the attendees through spinning up a Codex node, learning about the data marketplace, and downloading an image. Later in the day, the team spoke on the panel ‘Decentralized Social vs. Web3 Social.’

Marina, the growth lead for Codex, spoke on a panel at the Building Network States event. The topic is 'Spectrums of Sovereignty,' where the panellists discussed sovereignty concerning the growing network state ecosystem.  

At the main EthCC event, Csaba with Codex presented ‘Journey from Blobs to Data Availability Sampling.’

The team also set up a booth and handed out sweet Codex gear to the attendees, which was a huge success. Codex believes in durable and persistent data storage and also durable and persistent merch!
