Contract VM
IDE / Dev tools
Bridge / Cross Chain Message
Wallet and Explorer
Any Lib/Module useful to build web3/blockchain in Polkadot

AI
Layer2
DePIN
ZK
Social

Category 3: (Chain ) Building a blockchain based on Polkadot SDK
In this category, you can build a custom blockchain challenge using Substrate. In the near future, your chain will have the ability to plug into the Kusama Relay Chain for interoperability and plug-and-play security. The following ideas are meant to give you some inspiration. We want you to get creative and build custom chains that you think will be most useful to other builders in the Substrate ecosystem!
Parachain chain
Privacy chain
Decentralized storage chain
DAO chain
Game chain
Decentralized Identity Chain (DID)
Any chain based on polkadot SDK
Category 4: Open topic
- Other ideas
In this category, we want you to push the limits of what’s possible. Be creative, break things, make us laugh, make us cry. Test suites, visualizations, Wasm interoperability, and everything in between qualifies for this category. Shock us with your brilliance.
