How it Works

All builders are invited to participate!

  • The hackathon kicks off on Aug 13 and will be conducted virtually through early Oct. All eligible projects will enter the shortlisting period.
  • Teams can be shortlisted in 2 ways: 1. By the hackathon organizers, and 2. Through community voting via an on-chain voting app.

Shortlisted teams will the move on to a final round of peer voting.

  • These teams will be randomly split into 2 groups, and they can vote for teams in the other group.
  • After this peer voting period concludes, the total prize pool will be distributed evenly across the top teams.
