Summary

Pop-up cities are temporary, curated communities that typically run for weeks to months. According to the talk description, they grew out of the Ethereum ecosystem as an attempt to carry its values and coordination experiments into a physical, social setting. The talk by Jimin Lee draws on 7+ months of field research and a flagship report covering these projects' economic models, governance and community outcomes. Its scope is pop-up cities in the Ethereum and cypherpunk context, not the wider set of residencies and adjacent projects. It covers what has been proven at the participant and organisational level, and where compounding at the ecosystem level remains open. It also looks at how outcomes in education, governance, community health and matchmaking can be distributed beyond the format to schools, local communities, city councils and people who will never attend one. The session sits in the Rights, Freedoms, and Governance track.
