What is DYGYCON?
DYGYCON is a unique virtual metaverse that connects you to blockchain projects you should keep an eye out for! 👀 Think of a big convention center, but online...with avatars! Splinterlands hosts DYGYCON every two months (bi-monthly) to bring their partners and new friends to meet in the crypto community.
People were saying they had a blast and said that it was easy to join! The best part is no download necessary. You just need to get access to a desktop computer or laptop.
We had a blast at DYGYCON 6!
November 19th thru 21st, DYGYCON 6 happened! This was the first iteration of DYGYCON that spanned across three days. Due to popular demand to accommodate different timezones, we opened up the space to interact with for the entire weekend where Satruday, November 20th, was our main livestream date! Our TALKS featured Aggroed, from @Splinterlands giving the welcome message, Jason Brink from Gala Games, Adrian Krion from Spielworks/Womplay, and Skyler Ramsey from Dogira! What an amazing lineup. 🎉
We've got a VOD on Youtube here so you can see the recorded TALKS and almost 4-hour livestream with @waffleskitty and Pete from Gamerjibe to run through every corner of the space, dance with friends, and run giveaways. 😺😎
We also let some people join in last minute on the 22nd that missed out on the main action (probably because of all the awesome Twitter posts)!
What was new at this DYGYCON?
Splinterlands uses Gamerjibe's metaverse platform to host DYGYCON. You'll likely see updates to the space at every event as their team works hard to introduce new ways to interact, play, and have fun!

Some Personal Experiences Shared
- I've started on DYGYCON 5 and I really enjoyed listening to the speakers throughout the event. I'm just sad that I wasn't able to attend the first series of DYGYCONs. Overall it was a fun experience and I really had a blast! Can't wait for DYGYCON 7!
- It was a great way to be able to network and get to ask some questions to a lot of great projects. I'm shocked more people didn't take advantage of such an amazing opportunity to ask questions and learn more about each of these projects.
- I think i gave tons of hearts to Aggro!
- Meeting up with sgt-dan and cmmndrgarlic and having a fun time meeting new people, everybody was super outgoing and helpful and look forward to doing it again next time.
- I had a lot of fun at Dygycon 6! Cecking out all these great booths, seeing a lot of other crypto enthusiasts, fishing a bit and grabing some swag was awesome :) You will see me (btcsam) on the next Dygycon for sure!
