A new month has come to a close which means a new monthly report!
In July, the heat hasn’t given us a truce but that hasn’t stopped us from doing what we do best which is improving our products, growing our community, and making the LayerX web3 even better!
LayerX
2024 LayerX Team Retreat
July started off in a special way at LayerX!
The entire team reunited for a much-anticipated retreat, marking the first time in a while that our team members flew in from six different countries across three continents to meet and hang out together in person.
Between many pool dives, high-adrenaline experiences, and great local food, we enjoyed a great time together and bonded beyond our virtual interactions 🫶

Our team attended EthCC 7 🇧🇪
EthCC is the largest annual European Ethereum event, focused on technology and community, so of course, our team had to attend.
This year’s edition was hosted in Brussels, spanning four days and bringing together developers, entrepreneurs, and blockchain enthusiasts to connect and collaborate. We were there, and if you missed it, we’ve shared all the highlights and main takeaways from the event in our article.

Team Spotlight with our Head of Development
Team Spotlight is our content series where we bring our team to the frontline and share a bit about the amazing people that make LayerX.
July saw João Gonçalves, also known as @moshmage, stepping into the spotlight and sharing what it’s like to lead a software development team in the web3 ecosystem.
João was the proud winner of the LayerX meme competition, so the timing to bring him to the spotlight couldn’t be better!
He took a few minutes from bug hunting and feature planning to share some insights into his role and his love for LayerX’s culture.
