Aside from enjoying all of the festivities, guests of this event also experienced powerful networking opportunities throughout the cocktail party. High-yield clients, thought leaders, and key media were in attendance, connecting web3 brands and guests. Amongst the crowd were many blue chip NFT holders from collections like Bored Apes Yacht Club, World of Women, Doodles and Cryptopunks were present discussing their strategies to “buy the dip” alongside the artist Whisbe was in attendance sharing his plans for upcoming NFTs.

Additionally the event was filled with some of the most influential, trailblazing and powerful women in the Web 3 space, including Leslie Wheeler “Cool Blue” and friends from Vayner, Michelle Reeves the co-founder and CEO of Mavion World and Evie Phillips from Xion.

Guests in attendance were able to submit their wallets to potentially be selected at random where the guest will receive a flight from anywhere in the world and accommodation in 5 star accommodations and hospitality with the DIG team. This will be announced at the completion of the conference.
As a special addition to the experience some guests, who provided their public wallet addresses, will be treated to random airdrops throughout this week from some of the artists in attendance at the event.
