Some said it was the best ETHWarsaw yet. Some asked for a refund.
ETHWarsaw didn’t start in an office with a whiteboard with a business plan.

Coin First, Ask Questions Later
Because nothing says “support artists” like a token chart.

Letting Go of Prfectionism (Just Kidding, This Title Took 40 Minutes)
Notes from someone who is still color-coding their to-do list

Letting Go of Prfectionism (Just Kidding, This Title Took 40 Minutes)
Notes from someone who is still color-coding their to-do list


It’s late February in Warsaw. It’s grey, it’s cold, and your world has shrunk to the size of your monitor.
If you’re a builder in 2026, you’ve never been more powerful. With your Opus 4.6 and your bots, you’re shipping at a speed that would have been unthinkable two years ago. You are a "one-person unicorn" in the making. You are vibe-coding your way into the future.
But you’ve also never been more alone.
The barrier to entry for building has collapsed. But the barrier to entry for context has skyrocketed.
Your AI can write an app in seconds. But it can’t tell you if the market actually wants what you’re building. It won’t tell you that your UI is confusing to a human user. It won’t introduce you to your first angel investor.
It will pat you on the head telling you how brilliant your idea is, but it won’t try using it as a real, imperfect human.
Building in a vacuum feels productive until the moment you try to launch. That’s when you realize that vibe-coding without a feedback loop is just shouting into the void.
I’m not writing this to make you go analog or herald the doom of humankind. In fact, I’ve never been more optimistic about building in Warsaw.
But we need a space where the energy of a conference doesn't evaporate on Sunday night but compounds on a random Tuesday. A place where you can walk in and say "I'm stuck," and find a human, not a prompt, to help you navigate the gap between a great piece of code and a global project.
This is how Kolektyw3 came to life.
I want a room where the future is discussed out loud. Where people don’t just optimize prompts, but challenge each other. Where you stay after work because the conversation is too good to leave.
Starting something alone is scary. Even if you have AI. There are days when you don’t know if you’re delusional or early.
Maybe I’m building this for myself too. Because I don’t want to build the future in isolation. I want to build it in a room that feels electric.
Stop waiting for the next conference to feel like a founder.
See you at Kolektyw3.

Solo building is peak efficiency, but also peak loneliness. We’ve optimized for "remote," but we’ve lost the magic of the room. I wrote about why IRL connection is the ultimate competitive advantage and how to keep the momentum alive after the event ends 👇 https://paragraph.com/@monikazajac/in-the-age-of-ai-im-building-the-human-layer?referrer=0xDF296Db73f136e054a0E4a3Db9969fc524Cf8ffe
