Shared thoughts on what the future holds and what the correct course of action should be in terms of guaranteeing that all protocols meet the principle of decentralization at the same time that the business models are successful.Meetup Post Devconnect - 6 Dec.Some of the Devconnect attendees from our community gave a recap of the event. We discussed the Invisible Garden experience, long-term learning opportunities for devs, and hackathon participation. It was interesting how this experience allowed for future iniciatives as some partnership opportunities and new projects were discussed, as well as new products from the Ethereum ecosystem which could be promoted for adoption in Tegucigalpa.

Additionally, thanks to collaborations with various protocols, one community member was awarded a scholarship from Scroll to attend the event in Buenos Aires. As in previous years, and in order to maximize available resources, Ethereum TGU managed a Hacker House, enabling more Honduran participants to benefit from shared accommodation during Devconnect, held from November 16 to 22. As a result, a total of 10 Hondurans were successfully supported in their participation at Devconnect Buenos Aires 2025.

As part of the Governance Council, we participated in Scroll DAO Day at Devconnect, where we shared updates on ongoing governance work with attending delegates. We also took part in Governance Day organized by SeedGov at Devconnect, contributing to and learning from the different governance-focused discussions. In addition, we actively participated in the co-creation process through sprint calls, attending an average of four calls per week. Our work within the Governance Coordination Committee (GCC) included drafting proposals related to budget allocation and work distribution under the new governance model. We also began engaging with governance processes in other ecosystems, including Cryptex and Arbitrum.ArticlesHow does ether fi work and why might it be useful in contexts where traditional financial access is limited?In this article, Etherfi is explained as an easy-to-use crypto “neobank”-style platform that lets you save, earn interest, spend, and borrow with your crypto while keeping full control of your assets on the blockchain — especially useful in regions where traditional banking falls short. Offering things like staking and liquid DeFi strategies to grow your holdings and even a Visa-compatible card with cash back you can use anywhere. The idea is to make earning and using crypto simple and flexible for everyday users. https://ethereumtgu.com/etherfiEthereum, blockchain y Web3 : The extracurricular experience that empowers your future.An introductory guide for university students about Ethereum, blockchain, and Web3, as part of a new wave of technology that lets people build apps and digital services without relying on big companies or intermediaries.
