London, United Kingdom, May 6th, 2024, Chainwire

A collaboration event is set to take place between GBM Auction and Dr. Gavin Wood, the co-founder of Ethereum and founder of Polkadot and Kusama. This event commemorates the 10th anniversary of the Ethereum yellow paper and the recent release of the JAM grey paper. The event will feature three auctions of iconic blockchain memorabilia that signify crucial moments in the blockchain technology sector. These online auctions will be hosted at gavinwood.gbm.auction and are scheduled to start on May 16th, 2024, coinciding with the 'Decentralized Lugano' conference in Switzerland. The auctions will run for seven days, with proceeds supporting the DEC's Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.

These unique auctions will take place on the Moonbeam blockchain, a parachain on Polkadot. Glimmer (GLMR), the Moonbeam chain's native currency, will be used for bidding. The items up for auction include an Ethereum yellow paper, an original "Draft 1" version of the Polkadot white paper, and a "Draft 0.1.0 Dubai" version of the JAM Grey Paper. These items, signed and annotated by Dr. Gavin Wood, showcase significant contributions to the blockchain industry.

GBM Auction, known for its Bid-to-Earn system that has modernized the auction experience in the blockchain space, will run these auctions. This system rewards bidders when they are outbid, making the auctions engaging and popular. Hugo McDonaugh, the co-founder of GBM Auction, expresses excitement for this historic opportunity to celebrate the Ethereum, Polkadot, and blockchain journey through the auction.

Dr. Gavin Wood will donate the auction proceeds to the Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal, supporting essential assistance for families in Ukraine and refugees. GBM Auction invites esteemed technology and blockchain collectors to join in this event.
