Welcome to the Core BTCfi Summer Hackathon 2024!

Dive into innovation and help shape the future of Core Chain and Bitcoin enabled blockchain technology. Be a part of our journey!

Core Chain is the revolutionary network that enables developers to create groundbreaking decentralized applications (Dapps) on top of Bitcoin, via Core's novel consensus mechanism, Sathoshi Plus Consensus, which combines Delegated Proof of Work (DPoW), Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS), and Non-custodial Bitcoin Staking. This event invites you to tackle critical challenges across various domains, including GameFi, SocialFi, infrastructure improvements, and DeFi solutions.
