The 2026 Ledger Op3n in Paris was an incredible experience for Oregon Blockchain.
Jack Bernstein-Sheehan, Evan Thompson, Cam Coleman, Drew Manley, and Charlie Sneed traveled to Paris this week to represent the University of Oregon amongst a cohort of schools including Cambridge, Berkeley, TUM, NYU, and St. Andrew’s to name a few!
The collective of networking, panels, keynotes, and a hackathon, where we were finalists were truly a once in a lifetime opportunity for our members.
Massive thanks to @Ledger, @AntoineM_eth, and @college_xyz for pushing/furthering the future for security in digital assets, and further bringing the brightest minds in the world together to share knowledge and grow trust in the community - together!
Our next destination is in Austin Texas, where we are sending 30+ members to the University Blcockhain Conference, hosted by @txblockchain and @college_xyz. See you there!

Schools ask for your whole medical record just to check vaccines.
We built ZK-Health for the @Ledger N3XT hackathon: a zero-knowledge proof shows you're compliant, and nothing is released until you approve it on your Ledger.

Pitch Spotlight: Collector Crypt ($CARDS)
Presented by Charlie Sneed, Carsen Luna, and Miles Miller.
Trading cards are a $19.7B market, but buying and selling physical cards is still slow and built on trust.
Collector Crypt vaults graded cards on Solana and mints each one as an NFT you can trade instantly, rip in a gacha pack, or redeem for the real card.
Full pitch and fund report at the link in bio.
Shoutout to Charlie (@Chasneed_), Carsen, and Miles (@miles_mill52387) for a well-researched pitch!
