Quarter 3 has come to an end and the stakes are high for the last quarter of the year! September felt like a long month, and now, reflecting on everything we accomplished, it’s clear that it truly was 🔥
Here’s our usual monthly report where we share all the progress and developments at LayerX from the past month with our community.
LayerX
Getting to know the people Behind the Handle
At LayerX, our strength has always come from the incredible people who make our community. That’s why we’ve decided to launch a new blog series to highlight and celebrate the amazing individuals who help make it what it is!
To kick off this series, we interviewed @ConstarCrypto, a Youtube content creator and one of LayerX’s longest supporters. In his interview, he shares his journey into web3 and why he believes in LayerX’s potential to drive collaboration and web3 innovation.
This is the first of many to come so, if you’d like to share your experience, we’d love to hear from you! Just send an email to patricia@layerx.xyz or send us a message via Discord.
A day in the life of a web3 DevOps engineer
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.
In September, we shined the spotlight on João, the person responsible for the seamless integration of development and operations at LayerX! If you’re a web3 developer or aspire to become one, you’ll definitely want to read this 👀
Probably Something with Nader and Matt from EigenLayer
This month we kicked off Probably Something, a space where we sit down with some of the most incredible web3 and blockchain names out there to talk about innovation and what’s next for the space.
On the debut episode, we welcomed Nader Dabit and Matt Murray, from the DevRel team at EigenLayer, to discuss the future of staking ecosystems like EigenLayer, the potential of blockchain scaling, and the challenges builders usually face when they transition from web2 to web3.
We also learned about the importance of Nader’s role as a DevRel Director and how it’s important to get more people building in the web3 space.
We’re closing the Announcements channel on Telegram
This month, we’ve been doing some housekeeping, and soon we’ll be closing the LayerX Announcements channel on Telegram.
From now on, all important news, updates, and announcements will be shared in our Community group chat on Telegram. Make sure to join the chat and stay connected with the latest developments, events, and discussions!
