Moonbeam

Project introduction

Moonbeam offers an EVM-compatible Layer 1 Parachain. Its compatibility with Ethereum's ecosystem allows developers to use familiar tools and dApps, streamlining the development process. Applications on Moonbeam are ready for the broader market, bridging the gap between development and deployment.

Bounty proposition

Bounty 1:Use a Moonbeam Precompile

Moonbeam has a variety of custom precompiles that offer developers access to powerful features via a Solidity Interface. Some notable precompiles include the Batch Precompile, which allow you to selectively group transactions together, or the Call Permit Precompile, which allows you to provide users with a gasless experience (they don’t need to have any funds for gas). You don’t have to use the Batch Precompile or the Call Permit Precompile, these are simply provided as possibilities. You can use any Moonbeam Precompile.

In your project submission, please specify which Moonbeam Precompile you used and how it helps your application. You can specify this information in your Github ReadME.

Submissions will be judged principally on the following four categories:

Technical Excellence - High scoring submissions may demonstrate impressive technical skill and quality of implementation. Teams tackling challenging problems, even if the resulting solution is not fully baked will rank higher.
User Experience and Design - Can you abstract away complex cross-chain concepts into a simple and intuitive experience for the end user? High scoring projects will be thoughtfully designed to provide an enjoyable experience for Web3 beginners and veterans alike.
Value Proposition - Are you making something users want? The highest scoring submissions will have the potential for significant market adoption due to their clear value proposition.
Creativity - Unique projects or new and creative approaches to existing ones will be among the highest scoring submissions. (Copy / paste deployments from other chains will rank lower in this category).

Requirements

The submission should include a deployment of smart contract code to Moonbase Alpha or Moonbeam and should use a Moonbeam precompile.

Bounty 2:Build a DeFi App on Moonbeam Build an Application on Moonbeam

Moonbeam has a variety of DeFi apps already live on its network, such as StellaSwap, Beamswap, Prime Protocol, and Moonwell. These applications frequently offer opportunities for trading, staking, LRT, yield farming, etc. for opportunistic users. As DeFi is such an integral part of the Moonbeam Network, this bounty has been created to encourage you to launch a DeFi app on Moonbeam. This can be an entirely new application, a DeFi primitive that exists on other chains, or it can be an aggregator, yield optimizer, or any other tool that focuses on DeFi. For example, you could create an application that recommends DeFi pools to users based on the assets that they want to supply.

Submissions will be judged principally on the following four categories:

Technical Excellence - High scoring submissions may demonstrate impressive technical skill and quality of implementation. Teams tackling challenging problems, even if the resulting solution is not fully baked will rank higher.
User Experience and Design - Can you abstract away complex cross-chain concepts into a simple and intuitive experience for the end user? High scoring projects will be thoughtfully designed to provide an enjoyable experience for Web3 beginners and veterans alike.
Value Proposition - Are you making something users want? The highest scoring submissions will have the potential for significant market adoption due to their clear value proposition.
Creativity - Unique projects or new and creative approaches to existing ones will be among the highest scoring submissions. (Copy / paste deployments from other chains will rank lower in this category).

Requirements

The submission should include a deployment of smart contract code to Moonbase Alpha or Moonbeam.

Bounty prize: $500 for each of the bounty, total $1,000.
