Five Devcons in Five Minutes
summary
Rapid history of five Devcons that names concrete shifts: Casper proof of stake first appears, the DAO proposed and repeatedly dissected, recurring denial of service attacks on the network, IBM and formal methods enter the room, Prague delivers real developer tooling and lots of DEX and zero‑knowledge side events, Osaka seeds the NFT surge ("ELC 721" foreshadowing the NFT boom), experiments like climate kitties test carbon‑credit ideas and ad‑hoc parties fund social dynamics as much as technical progress.
