About the Hackathon

Time: April 20th — June 30th

Venue: Online

Theme: Web3.0

Tracks:

  • Web 3.0 Infrastructure (The project shall adhere to the principles of decentralization, interoperability and composability, and presented as either a tool that users can directly utilize or a foundation on which other applications can be deployed. The project itself can be in a variety of forms, including transaction, identity, security, communication, governance, and everything contributes to the development of Web3.0).

 

  • SocialFi (The project shall merge the characteristics of DeFi and social networking where users won’t lose their privacy or put any other interests at risk).

 

  • DID Network (The project should enable the verification of users’ identity without requiring permission from any centralized registries or authorities. It should be proved that user information is under protection against leakage, abuse or other potential dangers). 

 

  • Creator Economy (The project should put the power back in the hands of creators and assist their growth and monetisation. It must be specified how the incentives are distributed among creators and how their interests are maximally protected).

 

  • DeFi (The project shall function as a decentralized financial product, exempt from any type of central processing or controls).

 

  • NFT (The project should stipulate how a piece of NFT is created and where its value comes from. The policy and process regarding the NFT’s transfer should also be made clear).

 

  • DAO (The project shall uphold the fundamentals of community-owned and community-governed policy. Its design should cover the voting mechanism, means of dispute settlement, incentive programmes, and other collaboration rules).

Quadratic voting allows users to vote repeatedly for their favorite project, the vote(community donated ELF) will directly go to the projects and the voting result will affect the final distribution of awards in the prize pool($100,000); at the same time, it can effectively prevent the giant whale monopoly due to the huge cost of a large number of repeated votes.
According to the quadratic donation algorithm, the nth vote you cast for the same project will cost n*(n+1) ELF; the ELF you cast will be fully attributed to the project.
