Rationale

ETHDenver is a community innovation festival with 55,000+ attendees and 7,000+ builders. AirSwap seeks to build awareness about our products to the broader Web3 community, and incentivize developers to leverage and integrate our technology in their apps. This event is a great opportunity to reach out to the international developer community to showcase our project and attract talented contributors to work alongside us!

AirSwap should encourage members and contributors to attend blockchain events in strategic cities and regions where robust Web3 communities exist. The DAO should support some of the associated travel costs and needs of delegates.
