During the event, I had the opportunity to connect with developers, students, educators, artists, Web3 project and community leaders, as well as crypto enthusiasts, introducing Astar and its efforts to drive real-world Web3 adoption. 🚀 Many people showed great interest in learning more about how to build on our network, especially learning about our connection with Soneium (Sony) and our focus on practical use cases. During the event and as part of the community activation, I held a raffle where I distributed $50 in ASTR to 5 lucky winners who each received $10 in ASTR. **Here I share some photos of the event:** ![DSC05935](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/c/cd15ea70e35dfa19c5d45f8de7b84184c1f548a8.jpeg) ![DSC05773](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/a/aff57dd6fe529b99a2bcfb3c3ae2c02f90cf27f3.jpeg) ![DSC05952](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/3/337b8d7b4ca5993f4abc3be28b6b7d5944c3294c.jpeg) ![DSC06022](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/8/8ec3ebd41a9532f443c27b7b2aa194c149bce9ad.jpeg) ![DSC06031](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/1/1d3f70536f2832af9080ebc9438f7887f243e346.jpeg) ![DSC06041](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/0/060974e49072361c28079bcb6f714cf4a91e9613.jpeg) ![DSC05963](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/b/bc1a0534c944d80af19f85524c5f28ad8c6f3212.jpeg) ![DSC05959](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/4/490cc1bc2e3ca42e1ed6a091bb4700e9364a454f.jpeg) ![DSC05905](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/4/4269df71764f448c6f70c7dff5cdeaeffc7efc4f.jpeg) ![DSC05890](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/e/e468530024d2d2be29c9983f3ff8a0ed4026493e.jpeg) ![DSC05853](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/a/a92708c41f3636c6740422f000b163010b805559.jpeg) ![DSC06010](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/6/670e4b1d0fd94e646bb6973771b087fc4a835683.jpeg) ![DSC06029](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/b/b434a951ac9af6d40a8d6fef457882aad2750706.jpeg) ![DSC06043](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/a/a3d437cea36471388d56f3483f89c1809f309378.jpeg) **Here you can also see a little about what this incredible event was like!** > **[Jorge Saez on Instagram: "¡Qué gran experiencia vivir el Bitcoin Pizza Day...](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DKU-jfluwEi/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link)** > > 13 likes, 4 comments - cjorgesaez on May 31, 2025: "¡Qué gran experiencia vivir el Bitcoin Pizza Day Lima 2025! 🍕🚀 > > Fue increíble compartir, conectar y construir junto a tantas personas apasionadas por el ecosistema Web3. > > Gracias a los organizadores...

It also allowed for the creation of new alliances in the region with some of the main Web3 communities and initiatives. **Astar Network Local Spanish Channels:** **X:** [https://x.com/AstarNetwork\_LA](https://x.com/AstarNetwork_LA) **Instagram:** [https://www.instagram.com/astarnetwork\_la/](https://www.instagram.com/astarnetwork_la/) **WhatsApp:** [https://chat.whatsapp.com/LgPQTxMIR5T1Wsd5RBqqfA](https://chat.whatsapp.com/LgPQTxMIR5T1Wsd5RBqqfA) ![photo_2025-06-04_15-40-35](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/3/3da145c0321c03b121fc1bf3f117ef38b6cac303.jpeg) **Budget involved:** 18,520 ASTR ⁓ $518 Based on the valuable feedback received from the Astar community on this proposal, I held this event retroactively. Since I was responsible for the costs, I had to reduce the merchandise slightly, leaving only 1 banner and 100 brochures, plus the live raffle. I have updated the budget in the proposal, making these reductions. **You can find the details in point 6 of the Budget Breakdown section:** [https://docs.google.com/document/d/19LvIftZRVf01VeXetlkHN\_i2-w\_iEoukDtHQ-O\_W0zg/edit?usp=sharing](https://docs.google.com/document/d/19LvIftZRVf01VeXetlkHN_i2-w_iEoukDtHQ-O_W0zg/edit?usp=sharing) ### 🎯 **Participation Goals** - Position Astar Network as one of the most innovative blockchains in the Latin American Web3 ecosystem. - Connect with key local communities of builders and enthusiasts in Peru. - Spark interest in building and participating in Astar and Soneium’s Spanish-speaking community. ### 🔥 **Event Success Highlights** - **Sold out event days in advance.** - **Full capacity with over 100 attendees.** - Diverse crowd: developers, creators, enthusiasts, students, educators, and Web3 entrepreneurs. - Strong interest in Astar Network and its connection to **Soneium (Sony)** sparked ongoing conversations post-event. ### 🎤 **Presence & Engagement** - Astar Network participated as an **official event sponsor**. - Live talk introducing Astar’s mission and tech innovations. - Promotional materials and QR codes shared for direct community access. ### 🤝 **Community Dynamics** - Astar & Soneium-themed trivia with rewards. - Networking between attendees, communities, and sponsors. - Featured mentions and visibility during main talks. - Video testimonials from attendees praising Astar’s clarity and innovation. ### 📊 **Results** **On-site participation:** - 100+ attendees - Sold-out entry **Estimated digital reach:** - 10,000+ impressions and 120+ interactions (likes, reposts, comments), across social media, among all the posts related to Astar’s participation in the event, made by both local channels and allied communities(X, IG) **Community engagement:** - 60+ new members joined the Spanish-speaking Astar WhatsApp Community - 10+ devs expressed strong interest in building on Astar **Media & visibility:** - Featured participation in the official **Marketing Community XSpace** , alongside Ascendia LATAM and LATAM PizzaDAO’s global coordinator - Positive exposure and new connections with influential Web3 leaders from Peru and Latin America, as well as with builders and ecosystem enthusiasts.
