3/ The venue for tonight's #DFINITYMeetup1025 is Planet One in #Shanghai , a futuristic and chic e-sports themed restaurant/party destination. We thought we could do better than boring hotel function halls (meh...). It's got VR games, immersive huge screens and open bar. ImageImageImageImage
4/ #DFINITYMeetup1025 will see many developers, investors, researchers and community leaders from #ICP , #crypto and #blockchain . It will also draw sizable crowd from "traditional" industries including art, game, AI, chip, cloud computing, e-sports, real estate, retail, social.. Image
5/ I'll add more tweets to this ever expanding tweetstorm. WARNING: this will be a very long series.

I'm thinking People of #InternetComputer , similar to @peopleofnewyork .

All are welcome to tag your tweets under #DFINITYMeetup1025 . Let's get the party started! Image

7/ Planet One’s theme happens to be space tech, perfect for @dfinity ‘s mascot Image
8/ We prepared a variety of swags and collaterals for #ICP supporters , such as #motoko pressure ball, baby sneakers, craft beer and T-shirts. They all got grabbed away quickly. Should have ordered more! 😝

10/ Game is a big hit tonight on #DFINITYMeetup1025 . Many developers are hard-core gamers. They seem to have a ball! Some of them went as far as running a full CS live game…

#ShanghaiBlockchainWeek ImageImageImageImage
11/ Catching up with friends from past life in @awscloud . #CloudComputing has had an amazing run of 15 years and is gradually slowing down. #InternetComputer can function as a new kind of decentralized infrastructure-as-a-service (#IaaS).

#BuildOnICP
#ShanghaiBlockchainWeek ImageImageImage
12/ Many friends in art industry came to #DFINITMeetup1025 . @GuZhenqing is the first #NFT curator in China; Ateng from Wuzoren Art Foundation just curated Guangzhou Image Triennial; Ying from @PKU1898 is turning into gameFi; Scarlett from @OmArt_NFT is seeking blockchain devops. ImageImageImage
13/ The venue was packed with +400 people from diverse industries not just in #Blockchain on #DFINITYMeetup1025 .

One crypto OG said, I usually know 9/10 people at any party in this industry, but tonight I know only half, tops.

People who arrived late almost couldn’t get in. ImageImageImageImage
14/ “If look can kill, you guys slay Shanghai tonight” - a crypto OG said on @dfinity ‘s #DFINITYMeetup1025 .

Yes we did.

I was joined by 3 distinguished #ICP leaders.

- Neo Liang, CTO of @snzholding

- @ghostcorn of @Astrox_Network ImageImageImageImage
16/ @snzholding is a very successful and influential crypto fund. Its CTO Neo Liang, has in-depth knowledge of #InternetComputer and often speaks on @dfinity developer events to share his technical insight. He’s mentored and trained many #ICP developers.

In Neo we trust. 🙏 ImageImageImage
17/ @realblockpunk started out in blockchain when in high school. He works closely with @shaoan_ to create the largest and most mature #ICP developer community in China - @icpleague_com. Punk is a crowd favorite. His passion in #IC is infectious.

In Punk we grow💪 Image
18/ @ghostcorn co-founds @Astrox_Network , one of the most established #ICP teams in 🇨🇳. It builds plug-in that enables @DistriktApp ‘s #Android mobile client - setting example how Chinese #IC developers collaborate successfully with global community.

In Michael we build. 🤝 ImageImage

22/ Dr. Xiao Feng, chairman of @WXblockchain has the best summary on #InternetComputer and its position in the entire #blockchain ecosystem:

- #BTC stores value

- #ICP runs applications

#DFINITYMeetup1025 ImageImageImageImage
