The Offchain Lounge: Desserts & Mocktails Edition

​Join Team Aleo for an evening of policy-focused networking, paired with a non-alcoholic mocktail bar, vinyl DJ set, and elevated desserts.

​We're taking over Manifest 002, a restaurant and lounge in Union Market, for a relaxed happy hour during DC Fintech Week. Expect good conversation, cool vibes, a curated mocktail menu, warm analog sound, spoken word, and dessert bites worth lingering over.

​The most valuable activity happens Offchain. We hope to see you there.
