Time to MAKE it!

DoraHacks is happy to announce the launch of Klaymaker22 Hackathon with Klaytn at https://dorahacks.io/hackathon/klaymakers22/detail :D

A series of amazing workshops are also scheduled to attract students and researchers to explore Klaytn blockchain and the general applications of blockchain technology via research!

Outstanding project submissions will also receive additional post-hackathon support such as grants and investments to incubation and accelerators, to help them go to the next level!
