Attending Consensus 2022 was a pivotal moment in my life, one that would not have been possible without BAF Student Housing. It was there that I embarked on my Web3 journey, learning from leading figures in the blockchain space.

BAF's Student Housing enabled me to attend Consensus in 2022, marking the beginning of my journey into web3. The following year, at the BAF Resech Symposium, I had the chance to interview leading researchers. These opportunities not only empowered me b also allowed me to connect with some of the smartest people I know.

BAF's support was crucial in developing my blockchain development course at UT Austin, connecting us with industry experts, and securing student housing for 100+ students at Consensus. This partnership has enriched our curriculum and helped us bridge the gap between academia and the blockchain industry.

BAF is a custom web3 experience. I got resources to grow my club at Cal Poly and I was able to interview top-tier speakers in the space at the BAF University Summit at Consensus.
