1. ​Why real-time blockchains? What are use cases?

2. ​See what “10 ms blocks” look like – dive into MagicBlock's SVM (Ephemeral Rollups) and MegaETH’s EVM design

3. ​Debate the end-game for scalable, trust-minimised apps discussing ER’s horizontal scaling, trade offs in ZK vs optimistic proofs, and what “real-time” means for DeFi, gaming and beyond.

​​We create detailed and easy to understand summaries for each paper (summaries) and have held 30+ sessions since June 2023, covering topics from Account Abstraction, Parallel Chains, EIPs, Bitcoin Ecosystem to AIXCrypto. We are ecosystem-agnostic, not for profit and with a strong focus on projects with technical, product or social innovations.
