Destino Devconnect – A local grant round to bring Argentina onchain

We’re kicking off the road to Devconnect in Buenos Aires (Nov 17–22) with Destino Devconnect, a community-powered push to bring Argentina onchain. From now until November, we’re inviting local builders, organizers, and enthusiasts to unite under one banner to accelerate Ethereum adoption in Argentina and across Latam.

What is Destino Devconnect?

Destino Devconnect is a local grant round to support what Argentinian builders are already doing: onboarding newcomers, forging deeper ties with institutions, showcasing Ethereum apps, and fostering collaboration. We see your work and share your passion, and we’re here to help amplify it.

Who it’s for

You’re already on a mission:
If you’ve been hosting meetups, mentoring builders, or brainstorming ways to accelerate Ethereum adoption, Destino Devconnect wants to champion your efforts.

You’ve got ideas:
Even if you’re new to this, if you have a vision for how Ethereum can benefit Argentina and Latam, we want to support you.

We believe that together, we can make Argentina a leading example of Ethereum-driven impact. From wallets to local governance, from Ethereum applications to community brainstorming sessions.

What’s coming in November

Devconnect ARG itself is a major milestone, featuring:

• The Ethereum World’s Fair – a huge showcase of Ethereum apps and innovations
• Decentralized events – hosted by the broader ecosystem
• A week-long coworking space with Community Hubs – where we’ll gather to share knowledge, make devconnections, and build

Getting involved with Destino Devconnect means:

• Up to $1,000 in sponsorship to help fund your event or initiative
• Connections to speakers if needed
• A spot on the Destino Devconnect calendar, plus comms to boost your visibility
• Direct line to the Devconnect team for feedback and support

Apply to host an event or plan your initiative

We’re looking for local individuals and teams in Argentina (and wider Latam) who:

• Can organize a meetup, workshop, incubation program, mentorship sessions, or other initiatives, or are already doing it
• Have a track record of community-building
• Understand how Ethereum can support people in Argentina and Latam
