Kinto is an L2 focused on providing safe access to on-chain finance. It's built on top of the Ethereum network using the Arbitrum Nitro Stack, and it's non-custodial, transparent, permissionless, and governed by the community.
Kinto is fully EVM-compatible but Kinto has two idiosyncratic differences that you need to understand. The first one is that Kinto has User-Owned KYC, meaning every user needs to be verified before sending any transaction. The second one is that Kinto has native Account Abstraction, meaning that users are forced to have a smart wallet instead of plain EOAs and users do not have to worry about or pay gas.
Benefits of Building on Kinto include:
- Free KYC, KYT and AML. You get all this compliance tooling out of the box.
- Sybil resistance.
- Better UI/UX through Account Abstractions.
- Higher level of security through Hypernative and Ironblocks.
- Insurance Policy to all Kinto users.
- Mining rewards for developers based on the usage and TVL of their applications.

⚡️🚨 Warning: Building on Phala may cause an intense love for TEEs 🚨⚡️
_
Phala Network provides developers the freedom to build beyond the limits of today's Web3 development. With Phala's dstack SDK, devs can make remote attestations and key derivations in the TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) from their own TS/JS or python program. All developers need to do is create a docker image of the project, and the project is ready to be deployed on a TEE Server. For local development, we offer a docker TEE Simulator so you can test your products locally before launching in a real TEE Server.
⁉️ WTF is TEE ⁉️
TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) is a cool CPU feature that makes your code Verifiable and Privacy-Preserving by locking it in a black box. Trusted hardware ensures even the OS or hardware can't mess with your code. For example, when you put a Web2 app in a TEE, you get Web3 out!
_
❓How is it Verifiable❓
The verifiable hardware produces Remote Attestation, which proves the exact code is running in a genuine TEE with integrity and privacy guarantees.
Get the RA quote from your app and verify it on the TEE Attestation Explorer at https://dstack-sim-explorer.vercel.app

CoW DAO is on a mission to make DeFi safe and seamless for all. It does this by developing user-protective products like CoW Swap (the most-traded DEX frontend, by volume – recently surpassing both Uniswap and 1inch), CoW Protocol (the #1 intents-based exchange protocol, with the most robust solver competition in DeFi), MEV Blocker (the leading MEV-protecting RPC endpoint), and CoW AMM (the first MEV-capturing AMM).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CoW Protocol works by separating trade intents from trade executions – giving users the ability to express any DeFi-related intent imaginable, while delegating trade execution to sophisticated matching engines called solvers. Ultimately, this results in better prices for users, while protecting them from bad outcomes like MEV exploitation. In addition to hosting the largest solver competition in DeFi, CoW Protocol has the most-advanced developer framework of any DEX. Programmatic Orders let developers deploy orders that execute perpetually into the future based on arbitrary conditional logic, and CoW Hooks let developers chain swaps together with any other DeFi action (ie: simplifying advanced DeFi actions). The sky is the limit!

CoW AMM is the first MEV-capturing AMM. Only CoW Protocol solvers are allowed to trade against CoW AMMs, meaning that – since solvers win auctions by offering users more surplus – CoW AMM pools grow by capturing value for LPs that would normally go to arbitrage bots. Because liquidity pools auto-rebalance and protect LPs from LVR, they behave like enhanced index funds that (according to portfolio theory) reduce risk and increase return for tokenholders.

CoW Hooks are pre- and post- interactions that allow users to bundle multiple DeFi actions together with their trades, leading to significant UX improvements. Winners of this hackathon prize will develop interesting hooks that can be leveraged by any DeFi users or that enable unique abilities within a broader technical architecture.
Example submissions might include:
- Claim rewards → sell rewards → re-deposit to yield vault
- Claim airdrop → swap to USDC or ETH
- Unlock LP tokens → swap token to USDC → bridge & send to address (payments)
- Borrow stables → swap → deposit in farming vault
- Deposit wstETH to Aave, borrow USDC → swap USDC for USDT → deposit USDT to Morpho
- Flashloan ETH, deposit ETH and borrow DAI → swap DAI for ETH → repay flashloan
- Open CDP → borrow stables → swap → bridge/deposit in farming vault
- Unstake → swap → bridge
- Approve token → swap token → bridge
- Borrow stables → swap stables → deposit in farming vault
- Rebalance funds with a trade → deposit on CoW AMM
Note: CoW Swap will soon launch a “Hooks Store” within its UI where users will be able to take advantage of hooked DeFi interactions with ease – we are keen to build our Hooks library and may be interested in collaborating on CoW Hooks beyond the scope of this hackathon.

> Brevis allows smart contracts to trustlessly read historical on-chain states/tx/events and run customizable computations on top at low cost, enabling data-driven dApp UX. No ZK knowledge is required. We look forward to amazing projects and teams that can become our long-term ecosystem partners and candidates for our developer ecosystems grants and programs.
Qualification Requirements
- Developers are required to integrate Brevis SDK into their dApps successfully.
- The dApps should access historical blockchain states, transaction and/or events, and run customized business logic/computation on those data through Brevis ZK Coprocessor.
- The integration should be meaningful: accessing historical states that are also available in the current blockchain states does not count as successful integration.
- To qualify for the first prize, the dApp must write customized and meaningful computation logic on the data accessed. Simply utilizing historical on-chain data without any computation does not qualify for the first prize.
- We do consider partial or incomplete integration on a case-by-case basis. For submissions aiming to solve real-world use cases with a clear path towards full integration, we will most likely issue the full amount of the bounty.
-If there are not five top projects, we might only give out some of the prizes listed above, or we may adjust prize amounts. If no project is good enough to win, we'll explain why.

Kinode is a software platform that augments existing blockchains with a permissionless, peer-to-peer cloud. By embedding primitives like networking, identity, data persistence and blockchain I/O into the OS, Kinode makes it simple for developers to get feature-rich decentralized applications up and running, in contrast to existing solutions which inevitably sacrifice on either security or feature-parity with Web2. Kinode supports applications written in any language that compiles to Wasm, allowing developers to work with their preferred tools.

🏆 Best KinodeOS Integration ⸺ $1,000
The project should harness the full potential of the Kinode platform in an innovative way, creating an application that leverages its built-in primitives such as peer-to-peer messaging, decentralized architecture, and Web3 integration.
Projects can fit into any genre: For example Social, Games, DeFi or Productivity. They can be clones of existing projects, whether web2 or web3, as long as they use the KinodeOS in some way. Ideas should be possible to get a minimum-viable version running in a day, but have potential for further development to fully-featured product.
Some ideas for inspiration:
- Create a competitive game that awards crypto assets to winners
- Use zkTLS / “web proofs” to generate a simple prediction market for some
TLS-certified events (NFL game results, weather, box office stats)
- Token-gated bulletin boards / forums
- Discord / Telegram / Twitter client or bot with unique feature(s)
Whether you are a solo developer or part of a team, this prize seeks to recognize creativity, technical excellence, and the potential for future development.
Qualification Requirements
- Platform Integration: The submission must utilize Kinode’s capabilities, particularly peer-to-peer messaging or decentralized application architecture.
- Novelty & Innovation: The project should demonstrate a unique or innovative approach to an existing challenge, or explore a new idea within Social, Games, DeFi, Productivity, or Infrastructure.
- Technical Execution: The app must showcase a minimum viable product (MVP) with a working backend in Rust and a frontend in HTML/CSS/JS.
- Impact Potential: Submissions should have the potential to scale or evolve into fully-fledged applications after the hackathon.
- Compliance with Kinode’s Guidelines: Participants must follow Kinode’s development guidelines and best practices to ensure compatibility with the platform.
