CORE <> CONNECT Bootcamp Comes to Davao

The BLOKC joined forces with Core DAO Philippines, DevKodigo, and Team Selyo for an exciting bootcamp event in Davao City — the CORE <> CONNECT Bootcamp Davao.

Held on February 8, 2025, this hands-on learning event brought together aspiring Web3 developers and blockchain enthusiasts in Davao for an immersive bootcamp experience centered around the Core blockchain ecosystem. The event underscored The BLOKC's continued commitment to expanding Web3 education beyond Metro Manila and into key regional communities across the Philippines.

Building Bridges in Davao

The CORE <> CONNECT Bootcamp served as a platform for participants to dive deep into the Core DAO ecosystem, exploring its technology, use cases, and the opportunities it presents for Filipino developers and builders. By collaborating with DevKodigo and Team Selyo — two active forces in the local tech and blockchain space — the event ensured a well-rounded experience that blended technical learning with community engagement.

This kind of grassroots, community-driven approach is at the heart of what The BLOKC stands for: making blockchain education accessible, practical, and relevant to Filipinos wherever they are.

Why Core?

Core DAO has been gaining momentum as a Bitcoin-aligned smart contract platform, and events like this help surface its potential to a wider Filipino audience. Participants had the opportunity to learn directly about building on Core, with guidance from experienced mentors and community leaders.

Growing the Web3 Community Beyond Manila

Davao continues to emerge as a vibrant hub for technology and innovation in Mindanao, and The BLOKC's presence there signals a growing investment in regional Web3 talent development. Partnering with local organizations like DevKodigo and Team Selyo amplifies this impact, ensuring that knowledge-sharing is rooted in the local context.

With hashtags like #JustUseCore and #LearnWithTheBLOKC marking the event, the CORE <> CONNECT Bootcamp Davao is another step forward in The BLOKC's mission to onboard the next generation of Filipino Web3 builders — one city at a time.
