Token Engineering Breakout

Live Mechanism & System Design Workshop

A hands-on session where protocol teams pitch real mechanism and system design problems, form working groups around them, and carry the work across the whole conference — not just one afternoon.

Why this session

EthCC[9]'s first edition showed how much a room of protocol designers, engineers, and researchers can get done once they sit down together to frame a real problem and form a team around it — that opening stretch was the highlight of the track.

For EthCC[10] we're keeping that kickoff intact and giving teams the rest of the conference to carry it further, instead of asking one room to hold three hours of working time.

Format

  1. Kickoff Huddle

    Day 1 · 2–3 hours, on-site

    Short problem pitches from project teams (problem statements are shared in advance, so pitches go straight to the interesting parts), live team formation, and a design-sprint kickoff — each team leaves with a concrete starting point.

  2. Async Working Period

    Rest of the conference

    Teams keep going at their own pace — hallway sessions, side meetings, wherever suits them — logging progress in the shared coordination channel so momentum stays visible and others can drop in.

  3. Final Round of Presentations

    Last day · 1 hour

    10 minutes per team: results, prototypes, models, or open questions, whatever stage the work reached — live if the schedule allows, or posted to the channel if not.

How to get involved

  • Presenting a problem? Propose it as a project below — that's the only thing that needs a form ahead of time.
  • Joining a team? Browse the proposed topics below and sign up on that topic's own page — that's how we know which group to count you in for.
