Talent in India is not limited to metros. I've seen curious and capable developers who just lacked early exposure to protocols, grants and global conversations. Ethereum gives us open access, open source code, open communities, open coordination. That permissionless layer is powerful.

ETHIndia 2022 was a turning point. The energy of hundreds of developers shipping at midnight convinced me this ecosystem was worth committing to. I went from participant to mentor to organizer. Ethereum taught me that communities ship. I saw firsthand how one ecosystem could spawn an entire generation of Indian builders. Ethereum gave that talent a global stage. Developers here aren't just building for India anymore; now they are building for the world.

I discovered Ethereum, and that moment completely redirected my life. It wasn't just a career change, it was a new beginning. Driven by curiosity, I dived headfirst into the Bitcoin whitepaper and the fundamentals of Ethereum. That curiosity soon turned into a passion for building. The thrill of winning a track prize at my first online hackathon was the spark I needed. Since then, I haven't stopped building and shipping.

Ethereum has empowered Kenyan communities by improving financial inclusion, supporting agriculture, fostering education, and enabling cost-effective remittances. big up to ETH

I couldn't withdraw funds on offshore cryptocurrency apps, but Ethereum made it so easy.

I'm Cuban. I live in Serbia. From Cuba, opening a bank account was almost impossible. Paying online… even more difficult. When I arrived in Serbia, I thought everything would be easier. But in 2021, something happened to me that I'll never forget. A client asked me for a website. He paid me via PayPal. And PayPal… blocked my money. Just when I needed it most. That same day, I started looking for solutions. And I found Ethereum. That's when everything changed. Thanks to Ethereum, I was able to receive direct payments. Without banks. Without blocks. Without asking permission. Since then, I fell in love with Ethereum. Because it's not just money. It's freedom. It's being able to work and get paid, no matter where you come from. Every time I have something on another network, I try to move it to Ethereum. Because I believe in its potential. In its ability to give opportunities to people like me. People who come from countries where the system closes its doors to you. For me, Ethereum isn't just technology. It's a tool for living a better life.

I use Ethereum on a daily basis. With my Gnosis Pay card it's very easy to link my wallet to my daily expenses, and the best of it all is that I can leverage DeFi at the same time. That means that even my current account is earning yield, while keeping my funds accessible and easy to spend.

Ethereum has reduce poverty on average Nigeria youth. Young guys and ladies either trade or writing codes. This has help to reduce unemployment in my community.

I use Ethereum on a day-to-day basis to build art projects, deploy websites via ENS, manage my tokens, and anonymize accounts to create new projects unrelated to me.

Ethereum has made a huge difference in my life. Around eight months ago, I didn’t know much about development within the blockchain space. But as I started exploring and joined Web3 communities in Costa Rica like Dojo Coding and Web3Mentorhood, my perspective on Web3 completely changed. Thanks to Ethereum and these communities, I’ve had access to opportunities I never imagined. For instance, I was able to travel outside my country for the first time through Web3 initiatives—something I hadn't achieved through Web2-related activities. Ethereum has also helped spark events in Costa Rica, strengthening crypto adoption and building a more vibrant local ecosystem. Personally, Ethereum has opened my eyes to a world full of possibilities: collaborating with people from around the globe, constantly learning, and dreaming about building solutions that truly make an impact.

Before Ethereum, opportunities for many developers like me, especially in Nigeria and across Africa, were very limited. Access to global tech communities, funding, mentorship, and even simply being seen was incredibly hard. Ethereum changed that for me and for many people I know. It helped us overcome barriers of geography, background, and limited resources. Through Ethereum, we could contribute to open-source projects, earn real experience, build real products, and be part of something bigger than ourselves, without needing permission from institutions or borders.

what people have used the most are remittances, I believe that’s the most common use and it’s very useful
