Crypto Valley Conference

Saro McKenna, CEO of Dacoco and co-founder of Alien Worlds, took the stage at the Crypto Valley Conference 2025 for her keynote presentation, “Engineering Decentralization in the Real World.” During the session, Saro explored how decentralization extends beyond blockchain infrastructure and into the practical design of decentralized applications, particularly within gaming metaverses and community-driven ecosystems.

The keynote highlighted how decentralized governance, community-built frontends, and DAO-driven decision-making can empower users while enabling long-term ecosystem growth and resilience. Saro also addressed the real-world challenges of decentralization, including coordination across distributed teams and maintaining accessible user experiences, while emphasizing the importance of storytelling, accountability, and community ownership in building sustainable Web3 ecosystems.
