1/ Cosmoverse 2022 begins tomorrow. The Medellin event is bigger and better than any previous Cosmos meet-up with hundreds of crypto dignitaries in attendance.

Here's what to expect 🧵⬇️

2/ 1400+ attending #cosmonauts, 85+ speakers, 10+ side events, 12+ workshops, tattoos, special performances, $ATOM 2.0 unveil, the Cosmoverse Awards, whole lotta merch, and over 9000 announcements & alpha drops!

3/ Excited, anon? You better be! @CosmoverseHQ is organised by only FOUR cosmonauts. Shoutout to @Cryptocito, @Habibi_Cito, @fabi_defi, and @jurimaibaum for making this magical event happen!

Make sure to delegate to @frensvalidator and @stakecito to show your appreciation!

4/ Alrighty - let's drop some #Cosmoverse alpha!

First off, we have $ATOM 2.0. It'll be announced as part of 3 talks, on Day 1 and Day 3, with @buchmanster and @zmanian leading the reveals.

5/ Ethan, the co-founder of Cosmos, recently posted a beautiful article talking through the phases of Cosmos. September 2022 marks a pivotal transition point for the Internet of Blockchains - one that finalises the transition from the Initiation phase to the Integration phase.

6/ The tech is golden, the app-chain thesis is validated, the IBC is being adopted, so the interchain is ready to prosper.

@buchmanster believes this is a long-term, complex process whereat we must innovate socially and technically to enable political economic expression.

7/ Cosmos is now ready to play in the big leagues and reshape the way we think about sovereignty and interoperability. While the Cosmos Hub has, according to many, lived in a perpetual state of martyrdom, this will change with $ATOM 2.0, interchain security, and liquid staking.

8/ The ATOM 2.0 announcement lays the groundwork for the future direction of @cosmos. A long-term future, that is. One that stays true to the same ethos that got Cosmos to where it is today. Illumination is coming!

9/ Want to read an aggregation of speculation @ the ATOM 2.0 announcement? I got you, fam. But take this with a grain of salt and tune into the #Cosmoverse announcements to know it all.

10/ Okay, what else is happening at Cosmoverse?

Dozens of Cosmos-based projects are expected to make uber-cool ANNs. For context, we have giants like @JunoNetwork, @CrescentHub, @agoric, @EvmosOrg, @Injective_, @_gnoland, @ComposableFin and many others taking the centre stage.

11/ But I smell that more is coming. Are we ready?

On the 3rd day of Cosmoverse, at 4:20PM sharp, @jelenaaa____ will be dropping massive alpha on the centre stage. I'd tune in for this one, wherever you are. It's going to be livestreamed!

12/ I'm also excited for the Cosmoverse Awards! We expect at least 5 awards, bringing glory & fame to awesome contributors:

-> Most Promising Launch
-> Most Decentralised Project
-> Best Developer
-> Best Cosmos Project
-> Best Community

13/ Like workshops? There'll be at least 12 of them, with the Juno Hacker's Lounge being super hyped. Once you grow tired of cocktails, arepas, patacones, empanadas, and alpha drops, go build something cool, anon. Or learn something new!

14/ @agoric, @CosmWasm, @akashnet_, @regen_network, @ignite_dev, and @SecretNetwork will all be hosting workshops.

You can RSVP for free right now!

15/ Since we're talking about devs, do note that @informalinc's very own @Thyborg_ will be on the ground helping devs find work in the #CosmosEcosystem, so go holla at him.

16/ I'm also expecting a bunch of awesome giveaways. Merch, airdrops, NFTs, and all sort of cool things. @StargazeZone has made its intentions clear!

Pro tip: Make sure you've got all your Cosmos addresses handy at all times.

17/ Oh, and it's been confirmed. Our chaotic neutral @gadikian will be getting his $OSMO tattoo at the @osmosiszone booth. Go cheer him on!

18/ #Cosmoverse is also bringing on a ton of awesome sidevents and afterparties. You're gonna have a hard time keeping track of them all, but make sure you get your invites.

19/ Shortly after @CosmoverseHQ comes to an end, @HackWasm_Col will kick off. What, you thought that was it? Nope.

HackWasm Medellin takes place over 48 hrs and is sponsored by Juno, Osmosis, and Stargaze, with awesome prizes for the best hackers.

20/ Clearly, there's a lot going on. Luckily, the official agenda is available for everyone to see and @0xDonSylvester was kind enough to create a Google Cally with all events which you can import to your phone.

21/ Cosmoverse isn't only about panels though. It's about community, inclusion, and the fight to change Web3 for the better. Less vapourware. More products and real-life adoption.

@CosmosGuides wishes everyone the very best time at the event! Roll on Columbia! 🇨🇴
