Humanode Hackathon
To start 2022/06/02-2022/06/15 12:00 UTC
Humanode is excited to announce the Humanode hackathon. The hackathon will be two weeks long, running from June 2, 2022 - June 16, 2022. The hackathon will include a series of educational workshops that teach participants to build decentralized applications on the Humanode network. The Humanode network is a protocol that can prove one's unique identity through private biometric authentication schemes and grant permission to launch a node and verify transactions running a public permissionless network based on collective human existence. Humanode is the first truly distributed network where infrastructure is in the hands of people, not profit-driven businesses participating in mining or staking. Humanode crypto-biometric solution is a layer-1 technology, and is built as an EVM Compatible Substrate chain. Private biometrics help fight Sybil not only on infrastructure level but on the Dapp level as well. The direct biometric API allows NFT projects, DAOs, GameFi, metaverse, and other Dapps to integrate and enable unique online identities which stay private. Humanode is already joined by over 2600 unique human validators, and is in the process of launching testnet v3 in May 2022. Mainnet is scheduled to launch this summer. Timeline Workshops will take place during the Humanode Conference (we will provide links to videos for those who can't attend the conference) Workshop: Sybil-resistance for apps with Humanode OAuth 2 Service - 30th of May Workshop: Connecting to Humanode chain - 30th of May Opening Ceremony: June 2nd (12:00 noon UTC) Submission Due Date: June 15th (12:00 noon UTC) Demo day: June 16th Winners anouncement: June 21st Requirements You can use any technology you want to, and build anything you want. Just make sure to utilize the principle of Sybil-resistance. Sybil-resistant dapps are not subject to multi-account attacks. Humanode validators are unique human beings. You as a developer can make sure that there is only one person behind the web-3 account in our blockchain and your platform. Tech integration Ways you integrate Humanode: Humanode API: Biometric Sybil-resistance for dapps Humanode chain: EVM-compatible network based on equal human nodes Five Tracks DAO: Build 1p1v or new models of governance other than token-based voting. UI/UX: Use private biometric authentication to improve web3 experience. Chain tools: Build the first generation of tools for Humanode chain exploration, analysis or dev tooling. Dapps for human nodes: Help human nodes (validators) organize, manage and automate all things connected to being an integral part of the network. Special track: There are endless possibilities across industries: social networks, art, gaming, finance, governance, public goods and other. Prizes There will be rewards worth $30,000 in total. $6000 for each track. More rewards TBA from Humanode partners. Judging All projects will be reviewed by the Humanode Team to determine whether the project submissions meet the minimum level of viability with respect to theme and submission requirements according to the hackathon rules. After the hackathon, you can apply for a grant program which will launch in Q3 2022 after the main net launch. Reputable VCs among our partners and sponsors are here hunting for great ideas and teams To ask questions about Humanode, join our Discord: https://link.humanode.io/chat Idealist for applicants Sybil-resistant retroactive airdrops Biometric ownership of NFT Limiting NFT mint to one person Soulbound NFTs Diversify rates in lending protocols Create credit scoring techniques Decentralized marketplaces with biometric blacklisting Create new gaming economies Biometric gaming. Where biometric interaction is part of gameplay. Biometrics as a key in a virtual world. One person one vote DAOs Hybrid DAOs with token and biometric based voting Quadratic funding or voting without sybil accounts New mechanics for social networks Decentralize validators with biometric consensus Public goods co-ownership of equal validators Biometric P2P OTC market Private biometric escrow Biometrics in DID protocols Biometric wallet Biometric social recovery of assets Biometric blacklisting + DB of blacklisted Storage safeguarded by biometrics Storing a secret in behind biometrics Biometric pension fund Humanode network Nakamoto coefficient tool Biometric dating app with sybil-resistance A social network for human nodes What is Humanode all about!? In short, Humanode is the first crypto-biometric network where one human = one node = one vote that brings Sybil resistance and innovative governance models to the crypto industry using private biometric technology. In other words, the Humanode consensus model is not based on Proof of Work, or Proof of Stake. Humanode is based on Proof of Existence and Proof of Uniqueness. One identity (one person) is only able to launch one validator node. Each node has one vote. Which means, that no matter how much money you have, or how big of a company you are, your voting power in the DAO is the same as you and me. One vote. This also means that there are no “mining pools” or “staking pools”. All transaction fees and earnings from the system are shared equally amongst all validator nodes. How does this work? To get the right to launch a node, a potential human node will go through a live video based 3D face scan and liveness detection, to prove that they are living human beings. Biometric data is encrypted before leaving the user’s phone. Connection between the client and server is end-to-end encrypted. Biometric data is stored, decrypted and processed in a distributed network of secure enclaves - Intel SGXs and AMD SEV. Liveness detection data is verified during the face scanning session and deleted right after it. One point to note is that it is impossible to go through authentication without liveness. People running the encrypted servers are appointed by Humanode DAO and unable to see the data inside. Once the biometric checks, which take less than a minute, are done, one can become a human node and participate in the consensus validating all sorts of transactions and smart contracts. The same bio-authorization scheme also works for dapps and crypto protocols. So, what makes this so special? The answer is simple. Humanode is the first truly distributed network where infrastructure is in the hands of people, not profit-driven businesses participating in mining or staking. Humanode crypto-biometric solution is a layer-1 technology, and is built as an EVM Compatible Substrate chain. Private biometrics help fight Sybil not only on infrastructure level but on the Dapp level as well. The direct biometric API allows NFT projects, DAOs, GameFi, metaverse, and other Dapps to integrate and enable unique online identities which stay private. One of Humanode’s first partnerships was with AIKON, who is known for ORE ID, a secure web3 login experience for crypto asset management without the need to mess with private keys. Humanode also has a number of partnerships that will be announced soon, and a number of integrations that are ongoing. Humanode is already joined by over 2600 unique human validators, and is in the process of launching testnet v3 in May 2022. Mainnet is scheduled to launch this summer.

Dfinity Supernova Hackathon
Ongoing 31 days 10 hours left
22 BUIDLs
Introducing Supernova, the First Global Internet Computer Hackathon (Asia-Pacific track) The Internet Computer is the third major blockchain innovation — the world’s fastest and most affordable blockchain for building and deploying Web3 dapps, DeFi, games, NFTs, social media, and metaverse projects that can scale to millions of users, all entirely on-chain. DoraHacks is happy to support its Asia-Pacific track and we welcome projects of all sorts to come and join the BUIDLer's fest! The DFINITY Foundation is excited to announce Supernova, the Internet Computer’s inaugural global hackathon. Supernova is six weeks long, running from May 10 to June 20, 2022. Teams are welcome to submit projects anytime in advance of the June 20th deadline at 11:45 PM Pacific Time. The total pool of prizes and additional funding opportunities for the hackathon is up to $6 million, including specified track awards and developer grants. Sponsors and judges include Polychain Capital, Electric Capital, Huobi, Foresight Ventures, Tomahawk.VC, Animal Ventures, and more! TIMELINE Following below is a timeline of important events and milestones for the Supernova hackathon. The hackathon will include a series of educational workshops that teach participants to build decentralized applications on the Internet Computer. Each workshop will occur twice: once during a time amenable to those who live in UTC -7 to UTC +3 time zones (e.g., Americas, Europe) and once during a time amenable to participants in the remaining time zones (e.g., Asia). All workshop links will be made available on this page and will be emailed prior to the start of each workshop. Tuesday, May 10, 2022: Supernova hackathon virtual kickoff event Monday, June 20, 2022: Supernova submission deadline (11:45 PM Pacific Time) Thursday, June 30, 2022: Supernova Demo Day & Awards Ceremony To ask questions about Supernova, join our discord https://discord.gg/gKT5DsWwQ5 . REQUIREMENTS HACKATHON TRACKS The hackathon has six super impactful tracks that place participants at the forefront of Web3. You choose which category you wish to compete in: 1 SocialFi. Your submission must be decentralized social media that incorporates tokenization ("social media" is defined broadly). For example, you might give out tokens to users that refer other users to your service, who post content that is appreciated, help with moderation, or do something else that is helpful. Show the world how good next-generation social media owned by its community can be! 2 GameFi. Your submission must be a decentralized game that incorporates tokenization ("games" is defined broadly). For example, the game experince could be built from JavaScript, or an engine like Unity, and served from the Internet Computer into the browser, then interacting with backend blockchain code running on the Internet Computer. The game must involve tokens as incentives or prizes. It could be a multi-player card game, or space invaders that pays out bitcoin when the high score is beaten. You should have a plan to defeat cheating, for example using dynamically inserted CAPTCHAs. Help make sure Web3 gaming is game on! 3 Metaverse and NFTs. Your submission must incorporate a system or code framework that supports building decentralized metaverses ("metaverse" is defined broadly). If you want to take on laying the foundations for an actual decentralized metaverse, of course you can do that too! For example, you could submit a system that sells online real estate as NFTs, or enables multiple players to interact inside a virtual space. Or you could show how a powerful gaming engine can be repurposed for use in the metaverse. Join the grand mission to make sure the metaverse is decentralized and open! 4 Asynchronous DeFi. When a blockchain transaction invokes a smart contract on old-school blockchains, and it calls another contract, which calls another, and another, the functions of the different contracts run on a single call stack. This makes them very insecure thanks to re-entrancy, which has been one of the biggest sources of hacks on blockchain to date. Another problem is that transactions must be run in sequence, which creates a firm upper bound on transaction throughput. On the Internet Computer, smart contract calls run in parallel, because smart contracts (called "canisters") are "software actors". This removes a key security vulnerability, and provides for the unbounded, efficient scaling of blockchain computation. Now create a 100% on-chain and scalable auction house for NFTs, or a decentralized exchange for tokens. Or create a software library that helps others with the new way of coding DeFi. Or write code that interacts with other blockchains. Be a trailblazer for a new DeFi paradigm! 5 Public Good / Social Impact. Tokens create powerful incentives that can help new services and ventures succeed. But blockchain is not just about "success" in the conventional sense. The world faces many difficulties, including climate change, pollution, war, oppression, economic inequality, and fake news. This is your chance to build something that makes a difference, in whatever field you choose! 6 Blue Sky. Are you feeling constrained by the foregoing categories? Compete in this category and build anything you like, as long as it involves the Internet Computer! JUDGING CRITERIA & PROCESS All projects will be reviewed by the Supernova Team to determine whether the project submissions meet the minimum level of viability with respect to theme and submission requirements according to the hackathon rules. Each project submission must include a video demonstration of what your team built. Each video must be a minimum of 5 minutes. You must also provide access to your repository of code by uploading your files to Devpost. Once approved, these projects will post to the Devpost project gallery. If you need any help uploading your project submission, please contact us. The panel of judges will review all submissions that are approved to the Devpost gallery of projects based on the equally-weighted judging criteria detailed below. Prizes are awarded to winners based on the scores assigned to their projects by the judges. Technical Excellence: Is the code well-written, efficient, and/or technically innovative? Usefulness: Does this project solve a real-world problem? Can people use it? Impact: Does this project have the potential to affect the world in a meaningful way? Completeness: Is this project a complete working product for end users? IC Factor: Does the project demonstrate a unique trait of the Internet Computer (IC)? In the event of a tie, the tied submission with the highest IC Factor score will be considered the higher scoring submission. If two or more submissions are tied on the IC Factor score, the panel of judges will vote on the tied submissions. PRIZES & GRANT AWARDS For each of the six main categories above, the prizes are as follows: 1st Place $45,000 + up to 6 Free Tickets to Internet Computer Developer Conference + $50,000 Grant* 2nd Place $30,000 + $25,000 Grant* 3rd Place $20,000 + $25,000 Grant* 4th Place $15,000 + $5,000 Grant* 5th Place $10,000 + $5,000 Grant* GRAND CHAMPION In addition, there will be a GRAND CHAMPION award for the hackathon submission deemed by the judging panel to be the strongest of all the submissions. The GRAND CHAMPION award recipient team will receive $75,000, up to 6 Free Tickets to Internet Computer Developer Conference, as well as a $100,000 grant*. COMMUNITY CHOICE There will also be a COMMUNITY CHOICE award for the hackathon submission that receives the most votes from the community. The winner of the COMMUNITY CHOICE award will receive $10,000, as well as a $5,000 grant*. Users from the public will be able to log in to Devpost and vote for their favorite projects in a "+1" voting system where they can vote for as many projects as they like, but only once for each project. ADDITIONAL FUNDING $5.235M in additional seed funding and grants by the DFINITY Foundation, its affiliates, partners, investors, associates, and further core contributors involved with the Hackathon, to be awarded within twelve (12) months from the final day of the Hackathon. *Grant awards are not automatic or immediately guaranteed. Hackathon winners become eligible for participation in the DFINITY Developer Grant Program and entitlement to the full grant award amount is subject to meeting specified milestones and satisfying all terms and conditions of the DFINITY Developer Grant Program. Please review the DFINITY SUPERNOVA HACKATHON TERMS AND CONDITIONS for the full extent of these rules. Our Partners
