Apes Invade Devcon VI in Bogota, Colombia with Cross Chain Coalition

This past October, the Ape team attended Devcon VI 2022 in Bogota, Colombia; we knew it would be an opportunity to learn about the latest developments in blockchain technology. But we didn't realize how much the conference would change and bring us even closer to our community. From the moment we arrived at the airport, we were awestruck by Bogota's vibe and culture. As we walked through the streets of this vibrant city, we could feel its energy pulsing through us—and we knew that this trip would be unlike any other. Afterall, dancing and coding into the wee hours of the morning is a developer’s paradise, right?
