Not only will old friends who have visited the Wanxiang Summit every year share their latest thoughts, but are also very popular recently The Web3 Fengyun Project made a group debut. 3D virtual technology will allow all speakers to freely travel between Weiwei City and Geng Geng Xing River, collide their ideas, and share the future.
The 8th Blockchain Global Summit was definitely an audiovisual feast not to be missed.
Leaping through the solar system, our journey is a sea of stars
The solar system is a celestial system centered on the Sun and bound by the Sun's gravitational pull.
Blockchain, on the other hand, has developed an ecosystem that includes Web 3.0, NFTs, DAO, and the metaverse, using a white paper with innovative thinking as “gravity.” This system has not formed a final state; it is still in the process of continuous “expansion” and change.
The 8th Blockchain Global Summit will set up nine major venues (3 hours each) according to the distribution of the solar system and the eight major planets. Through exchanges and dialogue, we can get a glimpse of future changes in blockchain.
On September 20, Wanmu Xiang “Yang” - the 8th Blockchain Global Summit was grandly opened
On September 20, we will land on the sun to embark on this “interstellar journey”. At the opening ceremony, some well-known industry figures and old friends from the Wanxiang Summit will all be presenting with new topics. A special guest of mystery will also be given a gift as a guest at the summit for the first time, bringing practice and thinking about the metaverse.
September 21, the Yellow “Gold” Era - Blockchain Infrastructure
Looking up at the night sky, Venus is the brightest star humans can see. On September 21st, we will fly to Venus with world-renowned founders of blockchain technology to listen to them share the latest blockchain technology.
September 22nd, Han “Mu” Chunhua-Layer 2
Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. On September 22nd, zkSync and other Layer2 star projects will land on Jupiter to share with you some of the most impressive Layer2 expansion plans at present. Cold “wood” and spring flowers have their own differences.
September 23, Accumulating “Soil” into Mountain - Privacy Computing and Data Governance
Saturn, with its remarkable planetary ring system, appears to be a “protective jacket” wrapped around the planet. On September 23, we will invite experts and scholars from CertiK and other projects to discuss privacy computing and data governance, and explore ways to build a blockchain “protective cover”.
September 24, the “land” of the river trip - dual carbon, blockchain and the Internet of Things
The Earth is the “mother star” of humans, and a green home is a prerequisite for sustainable human development. On September 24, we will gather on Earth to explore the application of blockchain, the Internet of Things and other technologies in dual carbon, and use digital technology to promote the green development of the Earth.
September 25, the “fire” of the blaze - metaverse
Mars is a dream place for humans to migrate to space. The migration from the physical world to the digital world is another expansion of living space. The rise of the metaverse has expanded the boundaries of humanity. On September 25, we will land on Mars to explore infrastructure and practical applications of the metaverse and explore alternative human living space.
September 26, Yangyang “Star” River - Academic Discussion
Uranus, when viewed from a distance, is pure and clear ice blue. On September 26, we will host a special academic session, inviting experts and scholars such as He Zhiguo of the University of Chicago, economist/Zhu Jiaming, chairman of the Hengqin Digital Finance Research Institute, and other well-known experts and scholars to share their perspectives on hot topics such as blockchain, Web3, and the metaverse from different perspectives of technology, economics, finance, and social science.
September 27th, Spring River “Water” Warm-DAO
Mercury, the planet closest to the Sun. DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization, is a new way for human organizations to collaborate. Its concept adheres to the core idea of blockchain, from technological exploration to deepening organizational form experiments. On September 27th, we will leap over Mercury to explore the new management paradigm provided by DAO for social organizations.
September 28, Akatsuki on the “sea” - Web3.0
The tide of the Spring River connects to the sea level, and the bright moon at sea creates a tidal wave. Web3, connected to blockchain and reaching the metaverse, is a global technological wave that cannot be ignored, and it is a place where the spirit of transcendence and innovation coalesce. On September 28, we will land on Neptune and invite some of the most popular Web3 projects recently to join the stage to discuss the application and practice of blockchain technology in building the Web 3.0 ecosystem.
A nameless place, created by you
The world is so new, everything has yet to be named. If you're a developer and blockchain enthusiast, you can “reclaim” your own planet with like-minded friends in the September 16-18 hackathon.
The 2022 Wanxiang Blockchain Fall Hackathon will be held online, focusing on the three key development areas at home and abroad in 2022: low-carbon environmental protection, Web 3.0, and digital transformation, and setting up three tracks: a green future, a blue future, and a colorful future. Here's your chance to turn your vision of the future into reality and name your own planet.
The biggest highlight of this year's hackathon is that it will use a new award mechanism. The first, second, and third prizes of the competition will be decided by public voting (accounting for 50%) and judges' ratings. Voting will be carried out based on the high-performance alliance chain “Wanna Chain” independently developed by Wanxiang Blockchain. Users can check voting records, blockchain height, transaction hash values, etc. in real time to ensure that voting data is open, transparent, secure and trustworthy. The registration channel for the competition has been opened. For details, see “Co-creating a Colorful Future on the Chain, 2022 Million Global Registration for the Blockchain Fall Hackathon”.

The stars are scattered, like connecting the nodes of the entire universe, spreading through a galaxy, and humans are like dust. But we have broken through the limitations of our short lives, and through the unremitting efforts and creations of generations, we have become an irreplaceable chapter of civilization in the eternal universe. From the Steam Age to the invention of computers, from the birth of the Genesis Block to the great imagination of the metaverse and digital future, the development of new technology has never been without twists and turns, and it is impossible for humans to transform beyond themselves overnight. But no matter what kind of obstacles we encounter, we have never stopped exploring technology and thinking about civilization, just as we have never given up looking up at the starry sky.
Every one of our industry explorers and practitioners is a ferryman in a vast sea of stars. The 2022 Shanghai Blockchain International Week will allow us to transcend the limitations of physical space, meet on the other side of technology and civilization, spend the golden age together, ignite the flames, and illuminate the galaxy.
