The Privacy Salon | ETHDenver (Doors Open: 1.30PM)
After a packed first run in Buenos Aires, we're taking The Privacy Salon to ETHDenver on February 17th.
This isn't another sanitized side event experience: we're doubling down on the living room style that made BA memorable. Expect sharp takes, real friction, and smart people discussing ideas that actually matter.
