NETWORKING AND LEARNING
In the spring of 2022, I launched a community on the subject of enterprise blockchain in Frankfurt. Especially with the waning of the corona pandemic, I wanted to set a statement and thus boost networking again.
After a few dozen people were interested in the blockchain meetup, the organization of the first meetup was on the agenda. At the same time I was in contact with Marcel Grimm, Lucas Daniel Schmitt, and Marc Anders, who also wanted to start a blockchain meetup in Frankfurt in a similar way. Without further ado, we decided to join forces and organize the meetups together from now on: the idea for a combined DeFi event series in Frankfurt was born.
It’s wonderful to exchange ideas with so many like-minded people.

FRANKFURT BLOCKCHAIN COMMUNITY
The idea for the blockchain events is that we bring people and organizations together on site in Frankfurt to network, exchange experiences, and learn. For this reason, there will be no online streaming or recording of the presentations. At the blockchain events there are not only exciting contacts to be made, but also drinks and food are offered free of charge. Sponsoring (food, drinks) is provided by companies presenting at an event and by TechQuartier (space, billing). All previous blockchain meetups have taken place in the TechQuartier Frankfurt.
Several events have been successfully held since spring 2022:
- Access for institutions to web3 and yields by Blockdaemon
- DeFi 2.0 cross-chain exchanges by SOLA-X
- Blockchain initiatives and smart derivative contracts by DZ Bank
- Navigating the Future of Finance by Chainlink
- Crypto Decoded: How to Diversify Your Crypto Portfolio by MarketVector Indexes
- Why Bitcoin? by Bitwise Asset Management
- Unlocking the Value or Real-World Assets by Digitization by CoreLedger
Within a few months, the team of organizers met with great interest among the participants. Due to the great success of the event series, the event series eventually became the blockchain ecosystem Finance Loop.
After the meetups some participants meet for networking, for example in the NFT Skybar.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
Due to the great success of the event series, the event series eventually became the blockchain ecosystem Finance Loop in 2025. More than 20 events are planned for 2025, at which well-known brands from the on-chain finance space are also expected.
