Privacy and Scaling Explorations (PSE), previously known as the AppliedZKP team within the Ethereum Foundation is a group of researchers building tools for the future of programmable cryptography.

Prizes

▼
📧 Proof of Email ⸺ $1,000
We will be awarding prizes to projects that integrate "Proof of Email", which is a ZK SDK that allows one party to prove to another than an email was sent/received because the emails are signed by the email server. There are project ideas listed on our github page at https://github.com/zkemail/

Qualification Requirements

* Integrating Proof of Email into a NEW project in a useful way * Integrating Proof of Email into an existing project can be accepted, but the utility must be high.

▼
🪶 Bandada ⸺ $1,000
We will be awarding prizes to projects that integrate "Bandada", which is an infrastructure and tooling to manage anonymous groups.There are project ideas listed on our GitHub page at https://github.com/privacy-scaling-explorations/bandada/discussions/367

Qualification Requirements

* Integrating Bandada into a NEW project in a useful way * Integrating Bandada into an existing project can be accepted, but the utility must be high.

▼
🚩 Semaphore ⸺ $1,000
We will be awarding prizes to projects that integrate "Semaphore", which is a simple, yet powerful and flexible ZK protocol that allows you to prove you're part of a group and send signals (such as votes or endorsements) without revealing who you are.There are project ideas listed on our GitHub page at https://github.com/orgs/semaphore-protocol/discussions/463

Qualification Requirements

* Integrating Semaphore into a NEW project in a useful way * Integrating Semaphore into an existing project can be accepted, but the utility must be high.

▼
🆔 Anon Aadhaar ⸺ $1,000
We will be awarding prizes to projects that integrate "Anon Aadhaar", which is is a protocol that let users anonymously prove their Aadhaar identity, in a very fast and simple way. The core of the protocol is the circuits, but we also provide a SDK to let any app use our protocol.There are project ideas listed on our GitHub page at https://github.com/anon-aadhaar/anon-aadhaar/discussions/155

Qualification Requirements

* Integrating Anon Aadhaar into a NEW project in a useful way * Integrating Anon Aadhaar into an existing project can be accepted, but the utility must be high.

🗳️ MACI ⸺ $1,000
We’re awarding a prize to one project that integrates MACI (a private, on-chain, voting system). You can find more info on MACI and our documentation here: https://maci.pse.dev/Some project ideas for what you could potentially build: Frontend applications for people to use MACI: A frontend to manage MACI rounds A frontend to contribute to MACI rounds Quadratic Funding app DAO voting/governance app “Movie night” voting app with reusable frontend components for other MACI enabled apps Extract some of the MACI primitives to build something new! Build out a Subgraph for MACI to aid frontend development and data querying

Qualification Requirements

* Integrating MACI into a NEW project in a useful way * Integrating MACI into an existing project can be accepted, but the utility must be high.
