Ethereum’s Cannes: Where Crypto Meets Chaos 🌊💰

by

As a humble scribe for the Ethereum faithful, our team descended upon the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès, where the air was thick with the scent of ambition and the clink of champagne glasses. 🍾

The conference was part of EthCC Week, a spectacle where the French Riviera became a playground for the crypto elite. 🌅

On-Ground Leadership & Exclusive Interviews

With the gravity of a prophet, our Global Head of News, Brian McGleenon, presided over panels that were as enlightening as a lecture on quantum physics delivered in a language no one understands. 😅

  • Adam Levine, CEO of Fireblocks – a man who speaks in code and commands respect like a king. 🔐
  • Helena Wang, Co-founder of Verisense Network – a visionary, or perhaps a madwoman, depending on your perspective. 🧠

Media Partnership Across Premier Side Events

BeInCrypto danced through EthCC Week’s side events like a moth to a flame, from beach meet-ups to invite-only dinners. 🏖️

  • Based Rollup Summit by Taiko – A gathering where the real-time race is as fast as a cheetah in a sprint, but the ZK proofs are as slow as a snail in molasses. 🐌
  • PayFi Rising: Building the Rails – A night where crypto and traditional finance shook hands, and everyone wondered if it was a handshake or a trap. 🤝
  • L2CON Cannes – A conference so intense, it made your average blockchain feel like a toddler’s toy. 🧸
  • C’est la Z, Riviera Social – A soirée where the only thing more curated than the guests was the wine. 🍷
  • Rooftop Sunset by Team1 Connect – A sunset so beautiful, it made you question why you’re even here. 🌅

Impactful News Coverage & Ecosystem Networking

As a media partner, we achieved more traction than a toddler with a smartphone. 📱

  • Exclusive coverage – including live coverage of Vitalik Buterin’s keynote, a speech so profound, it made your brain hurt. 💀
  • We broke the news on Robinhood’s tokenized stocks, ETH/SOL staking, and their forthcoming Layer‑2 rollout (Robinhood Chain) – because nothing says “innovation” like a bank with a blockchain. 💸
  • Meaningful conversations with Coinbase executives, including Ross O’Leary (Head of Comms) and Tom Vieira (Head of Product, Base) – a meeting that was as productive as a squirrel trying to open a nut. 🐿️
  • Opened new institutional/traditional finance dialogues, including Standard Chartered, Sygnum, and legal/tax leadership from Paul Weiss – because even lawyers need to diversify. 📚

Thank you to Ethereum France and the broader Ethereum community for making EthCC [8] an unforgettable week of collaboration, innovation, and growth. We would also like to thank YAP Global for elevating the EthCC conference to global visibility as their official PR partner for the sixth consecutive year. 🥂
