Optimism $20,000

At Optimism, we're on a mission to scale Ethereum to the masses and sustainably fund public goods in the process!

From the code to the values, we are Ethereum-aligned. We believe Ethereum has the potential to solve some of humanity’s most crucial coordination issues. Since our initial inception as a non-profit research group, we have sought to scale both its technology and values.

At present the most pressing bottleneck to the growth of Ethereum is its performance and scalability. We are building the most elegant solution to this problem. We do this out in the open because we believe in open source and its ability to accelerate innovation.

Not only do we improve Ethereum's performance by orders of magnitude, we donate 100% of the profits generated from doing so to Ethereum public goods. We do this because we believe the future of the open internet is too important to be left to chance. By operating as a Public Benefit Corporation we're able to align private incentives with public good and create a positive-sum economic model that provides a sustainable future for the internet.

Prizes

So you want to build on Optimism ey? Well Optimism so glad to have you! We have two main prizes: Pool prizes (for generally cool products) and specific prizes (for specifically cool dapps)!

We also have a host of ways to support your dapp after the hackathon - we are here for the long term!

Pool Prize: Top 10 projects to deploy on Optimism mainnet get $250 for the team.

Specific Prizes

Spruce $5,000

Spruce lets users control their data across the web. We believe that the world is evolving toward one based on cryptography, networks, and digital economies that are user-controlled. Today, the dominant use case for user keys is the signing of blockchain transactions, but we think this barely scratches the surface of what is possible. Soon, the entirety of a user’s digital interactions will be based on their keypairs, and we’re unlocking this transition with our constellation of products. We meet users where they are, and empower them to use their existing keys to Sign-In with Ethereum, manage their digital identity, private storage, and more.

Prizes

Spruce wants to encourage the creative use of Sign-In with Ethereum to build rich Web3 applications.

Spruce will be awarding teams that use Sign-In with Ethereum in their applications to meaningfully gate usage and access in certain ways, contribute to or extend our existing open-source libraries, or is generally a part of the core application flow.

  • 1x $1,000 for best use cases that use Sign-In with Ethereum for a meaningful workflow in an application.
  • 2x $500 for additional use cases in projects that integrate and use Sign-In with Ethereum.
  • 1x $1,000 for any meaningful contribution to a new or existing Sign-In with Ethereum library (such as extending our open source Discourse library).

ComposeDB Data Discoverability

  • 5,000 USDC

Challenge Description

ComposeDB is in active development. One of the most impactful changes is a move away from DataModels into the world of Composites. Composites are defined with a GraphQL schema and are more flexible than the DataModel approach we have taken in the past.

One major benefit of Composites is their ability to be combined into one large composition of the data your application needs. This composability relies on individual models being discoverable and shareable throughout the Ceramic ecosystem.

Our challenge to you is to build out a proof of concept application that allows these composites to be discovered and shared by all Ceramic developers.

Submission Requirements

  • Working demo and video submission
  • Publicly available code
  • Small write-up providing developer feedback of the ComposeDB package ecosystem, tell us about your experience so we can learn from it!

Judging Criteria

  • Usability and function of the integration
  • Code quality
  • Documentation

Streamr Network $5,000

The Streamr Network is a layer zero protocol for real-time data transport, delivering a bulletproof pub-sub messaging layer. The Network transports streams of messages from data publishers to subscribers, appearing to the user as a global publish/subscribe messaging service. It is similar in functionality to message queues, enterprise messaging systems, MQTT brokers, Apache Kafka, or pub/sub cloud messaging services. Your Ethereum account is your Streamr account and identity. Every data point on Streamr is Cryptographically signed with the Ethereum private key.

Web3 projects can use the protocol in many ways, for example it allows the implementation of real-time features like chats and notifications, or collecting node metrics from a distributed network and sharing them on aggregate level to empower the community.

Prizes

Use the Streamr protocol in some way as part of your dApp!

  • $2,500
  •  $1,500
  • $1,000

Some ideas:

  • Decentralized real-time wallet-to-wallet communications
  • Off-chain multi-sig chat & conviction voting
  • Decentralized network communications/signalling - nodes can benchmark, gossip with each other their real-time state
  • Validate DeWi networks with your own proof of coverage algorithm
  • Blockchain networking - Broadcast blockchain blocks or signed transactions on streams
  • Open data sharing - Create real-time data exhausts from your open Metaverse character
  • Multiplayer gaming with real-time latency of under a third of a second.
  • Build a Data DAO (Data Union) to monetize pay-to-access crowdsourced data streams

Unlock $5,000

Unlock is a protocol developers, creators, and platforms can use to create memberships. Unlock’s goal is to ease implementation and increase conversion from “users” to “members,” creating a much healthier monetization environment for the web.

In short, Unlock is an open-source, collectively owned, community-governed, peer-to-peer system that creates time-based memberships.

There are a number of interdependent components of Unlock. These are:

  • Unlock Labs: The core team that created and currently maintains Unlock Protocol.
  • Unlock Protocol: A suite of upgradable smart contracts that create memberships as NFTs.
  • The Unlock Ecosystem: A community of creators, distributors, and consumers who share ownership of Unlock Protocol through their contributions using the protocol.
  • Unlock DAO: A decentralized organization of token holders who govern and control Unlock Protocol.
  • Unlock Tools: Front-end convenience applications built by Unlock Labs to further sustainable innovation on Unlock Protocol.

Unlock Labs created Unlock Protocol to provide an open, shared infrastructure for memberships that removes friction, increases conversion, enables scale, reduces costs, and evolves the web from a business model built on attention toward one based on membership.

Unlock Protocol belongs to the Unlock Ecosystem, not Unlock Labs, and is governed by the Unlock DAO.

The project aims for Unlock Protocol to be the primitive for every membership, both online and offline, around the globe. Together, we will create an internet owned and monetized by creators and their supporters.

Prizes

Unlock is awarding prizes to projects that have the most inventive use of Unlock:

  • 1st Prize: $3000
  • 2nd Prize: $1500
  • 3rd Prize: $500
