The London Clojurians are happy to present: Title: Encoding internet-scale decentralised data structures on Convex Speaker: Mike Anderson Mike Anderson - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-cvx/ will be presenting: "Encoding internet-scale decentralised data structures on Convex" This discussion will expand on the first Convex event with the London Clojurians (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpKAQgcJRao&authuser=4) which provided an in-depth look at the whole platform. Now that Convex is ready to launch, the second conversation with dive into the significance of these efficient data formats and why the CAD003: Encoding Format (https://github.com/Convex-Dev/design/tree/develop/docs/cad/003_encoding) will be so revolutionary. The call will also cover examples for users. Note: the VM is written in Convex Lisp, inspired largely by Clojure. This past week Convex was awarded a grant from the EU government for a cross-chain token interoperability project.
