It was my first real-world hackathon, and I registered through the Web3 community, which I had only joined ten days earlier. Upon learning that I could attend the conference on August 26 and the hackathon on August 27 and 28, respectively, I became extremely excited to meet new people, network with them, share fantastic experiences with them, and learn more about WEB3 and daoo applications. I then purchased train tickets on April 25 and arrived at Bengaluru's KSR station on April 26. Then after that, I reserved a taxi to take me to the IRL conference, which was being hosted in the White Field neighbourhood of Bengaluru. When I arrived at the event at approximately 1.20, I was pleasantly surprised by their hospitality and other aspects. I met the founder of WEB3 BHARAT, On that particular day, Mr. Sunil significantly motivated me by teaching me how to interact and network with those who were present. And the following day I met Rupali & Prayasu who were from different teams. I learned about the product we are building on the web3 and that we are both building great products, so we didn't join as a team but are working as a team there helping each other to resolve bugs and etc. We had a great time at the IRL hackathon and discovered a lot about how hackathons work.
