The custom ENS cards made in collaboration with IYK and POAP were a huge success - with all 2000 distributed to Devcon attendees. At times the queue reached a ~60 minute wait, and we appreciate everyone being patient!

Competition was fierce to reach the top of the ENS Cards Leaderboard, which ranks who could meet the most people and mint their custom POAP by tapping their ENS card with a phone.
10 year-old ethilio.eth reached legendary status for his determination to reach the top, with several attendees stopping by the ENS booth to check his progress on the leaderboard and cheer him on throughout Devcon.
Ethilio.eth, this 7 year old was one of the highlights of this devcon! He came in without an ens name, and left with his .eth, meeting 340 ENSers in the community and thoroughly reminding us at ENS why we do what we do. pic.twitter.com/ryMkQ0HBnY

ENS DAO organized and participated in several onboarding events during Devcon. Ecosystem Steward Validator.eth collaborated with Ethereum Honduras to host an onboarding event at a venue nearby Agorรก. Fellow Ecosystem Steward Slobo.eth also participated in an onboarding event.
Onboarding events are important education initiative for our Ecosystem and lead to the proliferation of ENS Protocol in the long run. We hope to see these and more community ran events soon!

Founder and Lead Developer of the ENS Protocol, Nick.eth, gave his first "State of ENS" presentation in over three years. Below, we highlight the growth of the protocol since 2019:
For more, check out Nick.eth's full-length Keynote from Devcon 2022.
On October 4th, LENS Protocol announced their partnership with ENS that allows Lens data to be queried via ENS resolution. This is a utilization of EIP-3668 offchain resolution (CCIP Read) that Coinbase recently integrated as well.
CCIP Read uses a gateway service model to fetch data offchain in real-time, so you can fetch LENS text record without delay. You can now look up your LENS profile on Metamask and also look it up via the ENS Manager App, as well as several other wallets.
The New ENS Manager App is now live on the Goerli test network and facilitates the following:
Upload your avatar
Select NFT
Registration of multiple records
Register wrapped names
Burning fuses
This brings the Name Wrapper update one step closer to reality. For a more thorough breakdown, check out jefflau.eth's thread on Twitter:
1/ The new app is finally updated to support: - avatar upload + nft select - registration w/ multiple records - registering wrapped names - burning fuses Itโs rough around the edges, but one step closer to NameWrapper mainnet deployment! ๐งต https://t.co/ET6hbgkV8d
