The European Crypto Initiative (EuCI) celebrated several events during the Ethereum Community Conference (EthCC), including their first Legal Summer School, held from July 7 through July 8, where they covered details of the European Union (EU) legislative process and other blockchain process lessons. 

EuCI also attended the Institutional Digital Assets Forum on July 8-11 as part of EthCC Week. They recapped with a post on X that shared some of the experience, saying, "We were thrilled to have co-organised and participated in so many events, and couldn't be happier with the turnout." This statement was made in a July 19 post on X.

EthCC Week saw more than 250 speakers from around the world participate in multiple events, meetings, panels, and parties in Brussels. Some of the events included a Hacker House event for developers to learn, build and ship on Fleek starting July 1; EthCC Bingo, a conference game hosted by Shutter Network from July 6-14; and an augmented reality game at EthCC which allowed individuals to explore Brussels with missions and rewards.
