The BLOKC at CHAIN REACTION: Unlocking Blockchain at UST

The BLOKC Takes the Stage at CHAIN REACTION

On February 14, 2025, The BLOKC Co-Founder Julius Patrick Fresco represented the organization at CHAIN REACTION, held at the Roque Ruaño Engineering Conference Hall of the University of Santo Tomas (UST).

The event served as a platform to introduce students and attendees to the world of blockchain technology and the opportunities that come with it. Julius took the opportunity to shed light on two key topics:

• What is The BLOKC — its mission to make blockchain education accessible in the Philippines, and the opportunities it opens up for learners, builders, and future Web3 professionals.
• What is Base Philippines — an introduction to Base, the Ethereum Layer 2 network, and what its local community means for Filipino developers and enthusiasts looking to enter the blockchain space.

Bringing Blockchain to the Next Generation

CHAIN REACTION provided the ideal setting to engage a young, technically curious audience. By presenting The BLOKC's educational programs and the growing ecosystem around Base Philippines, Julius helped paint a picture of what a career or project in Web3 could look like for Filipino students today.

Events like these are central to The BLOKC's broader mission — to build a strong, informed, and empowered blockchain community across the Philippines. Whether you are a developer, entrepreneur, or simply curious about decentralized technology, The BLOKC continues to open doors and spark conversations that matter.

Stay tuned for more updates as The BLOKC continues to bring blockchain education to communities and campuses nationwide.
