My name is Nova Phoenix, founder of lyfebloodDAO and lead organizer to Decentralized crypto event. We’re hosting our next annual crypto event in Johannesburg, South Africa around the 2nd/3rd Qtr of 2026 and we’re looking for partners who share our passion for Blockchain/Web3. Our event is a rising brand in the crypto industry to attract the best minds in Web3, government officials and industry leaders in the private sector.

DcD event will be a conference/music concert. The concert will be at a venue of 5000 people. The musical landscape will combine musical powerhouses of Hip-Hop, R&B, Afrobeat, Amapiano and more! This is a unique opportunity for Optimism to connect directly with a dedicated audience while engaging along with the global technology of Web3.

If anyone can forward me to the right department or contact, please do. Please reach out to [novap@lyfeblood.com](mailto:novap@lyfeblood.com).
