Devconnect Argentina and the is just around the corner, and the EF has been promoting the Ethereum World Fair as much as possible. There hasn’t been any mentions of staking, and I believe it’s a good chance for Lido and Devconnect to collaborate to show the power of Ethereum staking, and all the things that happened and will continue to happen in Latam.
The goal is to educate on how, why and the things people can do with staking (e.g. Impact Staking).
High level plan
1. Staking Education Threads
- Origin and Evolution of ETH Staking: A quick historical overview of Ethereum’s PoS, launch of beacon chain, liquid staknig protocols, major improvements (e.g. consolidations) etc.
- PoS vs PoW Explain the benefits of PoS against PoW
- Staking Protocols Spotlight: An informa tive thread showcasing actual staking options (Lido, Rocket Pool, etc.), emphasizing how they empower solo staking and fostering interest among potential stakers.
- #DestinoDevconnect Calendar Reveal: Announcing Solo Stakers Guild (SSG) IRL events across LatAm (September-November) in Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, and Brazil (TBD). Attendees can register their interest and participation via the lu.ma/lido calendar.
2. LATAM SSG Roadshow (Sep-Nov)
The plan is to run SSG (Solo Stakers Guild) workshops in key cities within Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, and Brazil (TBD). These IRL events are all about building community and turning interest into active stakers, acquiring new users for CSM while growing LatAm community networks.
Expect hands-on CSM validator setups, staking masterclasses, and node operator meetups, with local success stories for inspiration. I'll team up with groups like X, y, and Z to maximize reach.
