Pre Event Meetup

Everyone was Invited to a pre-event meetup organized & sponsored (Free cakes, coffee & tea) by Eth Dublin where we had the opportunity to meet some of the speakers at the event who discussed about very important issues in the Industry

One of the key points that was discussed at the Eth Dublin sponsored Cafe meet was that developers do not want to learn languages or frameworks for just one specific blockchain. That's why the need for SDKs is important, and Solidity & Rust are the go-to languages for blockchain engineers. Solidity can be used with Ethereum and other EVM-compatible blockchains, and Rust is not just native to smart contracts but also a general programming language.
