Reactive Network Hackathon

Details

The Reactive Hackathon is in full swing, offering participants a chance to dive deep into decentralized application development using Reactive Smart Contracts (RSCs) on the Reactive Network.

Goals of the Reactive Hackathon

The primary objective of the Reactive Hackathon is to enable participants to explore innovative use cases for Reactive Smart Contracts and contribute to the development of the Reactive ecosystem. Here’s a breakdown of the hackathon’s goals:

1. Discover New Use Cases: To see creative implementations of RSCs that bring automations or cross-chain functionality to blockchain applications.
2. Get Good Code Examples: Clear and functional code examples will help others in the community understand and build on Reactive Network technology.
3. Engage Active Developers: To invite developers to actively use Reactive Network in their projects, growing the ecosystem.
4. Improve Tech and Documentation: Feedback from participants will be invaluable in refining both the tech stack and documentation.
5. Have Fun: This hackathon is also about having a good time exploring new technologies and working alongside like-minded developers.

Why Join the Hackathon?

1. Innovative Technology: Reactive Smart Contracts (RSCs) allow decentralized applications (dApps) to react to on-chain events autonomously, which means you can build more efficient and responsive systems. Whether it’s automating DeFi protocols or creating cross-chain solutions, Reactive Network provides tools that open up new possibilities.
2. Familiar Tech Stack: Developers familiar with Solidity will feel at home in this hackathon. You don’t need to learn a completely new language—Reactive Network is fully compatible with EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine), making the transition smooth.
3. Career-Enhancing Experience: Participating in the Reactive Hackathon isn’t just about winning. It’s about enhancing your portfolio, gaining experience with cutting-edge technology, and building connections in the blockchain ecosystem.
4. Active Support and Community: Reactive team and community are highly responsive. If you ever run into roadblocks, contact via Discord and Telegram.
5. Big Prizes and Grants: A total prize pool of $50,000 is up for grabs, with prizes distributed across various tracks. Grants will be awarded to promising projects to support further development.

Hackathon Tracks

The hackathon features multiple tracks, catering to both seasoned developers and newcomers. Here’s a detailed look at each track:

1. Open Track

• Prizes: 1st place: 5,000 USDT, 2nd place: 2,000 USDT, 3rd place: 1,000 USDT
• Description: This track is for those who want to get creative and explore innovative ways to use RSCs. Whether you’re improving existing DeFi workflows or creating entirely new dApps, this track offers flexibility and freedom to innovate.

2. Pangolin Track

• Prizes: 1st place: 2,000 USDT, 2nd place: 1,000 USDT, 3rd place: 500 USDT
• Description: Sponsored by Pangolin Exchange, this track challenges participants to apply RSCs to the DEX (decentralized exchange) space. Whether you integrate new features or optimize user experience, creativity and relevance to DEX operations are key here.

3. Template Deployer Track

• Prizes: 1st place: 2,000 USDT, 2nd place: 1,000 USDT, 3rd place: 500 USDT
• Description: This track focuses on creating a user-friendly Web3 dApp that allows users to deploy predefined RSCs without needing to write code. The goal is to make RSCs accessible to a broader audience, automating complex workflows for the end-user.

4. No-Code Track

• Prizes: 1st place: 800 USDT, 2nd place: 400 USDT, 3rd place: 200 USDT
• Description: This track is designed for participants who don’t have coding skills but can contribute valuable ideas. You’ll be asked to describe use cases for RSCs in detail, focusing on their business and technical value.

5. Bi-Weekly Challenges

• Prizes: 700 USDT per challenge
• Description: These mini-challenges are designed to keep things active and fun throughout the hackathon. Every two weeks, a new challenge is introduced, allowing participants to solve smaller, more focused problems using RSCs.
