INTMAX, a prominent Layer 2 zkRollup platform, has announced PlasmaCon, an official event of Japan Blockchain Week. The event is scheduled for July 31 in Tokyo. PlasmaCon will bring together some of the most influential minds in the blockchain industry, including Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and Ethereum Foundation researchers Justin Drake. Additionally, Scott Moore, founder of Public Works and co-founder of Gitcoin, and plasma researcher and INTMAX co-founder Leona Hioki will also attend the event.
PlasmaCon focuses on Ethereum scalability and privacy solutions
PlasmaCon will be a builder-focused event, exploring alternative methods for scaling Ethereum and improving privacy solutions. The event will feature discussions on scalability solutions for Ethereum, privacy improvements, and various applications of blockchain technology. The event will be held at the United Nations University from 12:30 PM to 5:00 PM local time, following this year’s EDCON Tokyo.
PlasmaCon 2024 is especially notable because it marks a renewed focus on plasma technology, initially conceptualized by Joseph Poon and Vitalik Buterin in 2017. Despite being replaced by Rollups due to user experience issues, Plasma is seeing a resurgence. Vitalik Buterin recently discussed this in his blog post entitled ‘Exit games for EVM validiums: the return of Plasma.’
The event has a maximum of 400 participants, who will have the opportunity to interact with more than 15 experts from around the world. Attendees can expect insightful discussions, question and answer sessions and networking opportunities with industry leaders.
Co-founder of INTMAX emphasizes the power of plasma technology

She emphasized that PlasmaCon has brought together influential thinkers and visionaries who have had a significant impact on the technology industry and encouraged people to participate in the event in Tokyo on July 31.
