We’re excited to share the highlights from our recent collaboration with Algorand Foundation, where we hosted “MERGE Madrid Warm Up”, a community event in Madrid hosted by Stakely in collaboration with Algorand Foundation that served as a warm-up to MERGE Madrid 2025.
Our goal was to bring together builders, developers, and enthusiasts from the Web3 ecosystem to exchange ideas, learn, and connect in an engaging environment. The event gathered over 120 attendees, featuring talks, networking sessions, and plenty of insightful discussions about blockchain innovation and decentralization.
You can catch the atmosphere of the event in this video summary!
Beyond the event, we’re proud to announce that Stakely has joined Algorand as a validator, reinforcing our commitment to supporting the network’s growth and decentralization.
To further contribute to the ecosystem, we’ve created educational content in our blog explaining Algorand’s technology, helping both newcomers and experienced users better understand the network’s potential.
We’re thrilled to keep collaborating with the Algorand community and look forward to continuing to build educational initiatives and events that bring value to the ecosystem!
