The 1inch Network unites decentralized protocols whose synergy enables the most lucrative, fastest and protected operations in the DeFi space. The initial protocol of the 1inch Network is a DEX aggregator solution that searches deals across multiple liquidity sources, offering users better rates than any individual exchange. This protocol incorporates the Pathfinder algorithm which finds the best paths among different markets over 180 liquidity sources on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Optimistic Ethereum, Arbitrum and Gnosis Chain. In just over two years the 1inch DEX aggregator has reached 2M users and surpassed $150B in overall trading volume. The 1inch Aggregation Protocol facilitates cost-efficient and secure swap transactions across multiple liquidity sources.
🏆 1inch Network is offering:
#1 NFT Marketplace on the 1inch Limit Order Protocol
Build a marketplace on which users could sell NFTs for any tokens, using the 1inch Limit Order Protocol. Alternatively, you can build an NFT auction based on the 1inch Limit Order Protocol.
#2 NFT Aggregator
Build your own Unicorn project from the scratch. Build it on top of the 1inch Aggregator or 1inch Limit Order Protocol for the most efficiency or feel free to create your own product.
#3 Margin trading on the 1inch Limit Order Protocol
Write a smart contract enabling the creation of limit orders for margin trading on the 1inch Limit Order Protocol.
#4 Margin trading using the 1inch Aggregation API
Build an interface and smart contracts for margin trading using the 1inch Aggregation API. The 1inch Aggregation API has been successfully used in a range of projects, including MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Gnosis and Ledger.
#5 Automated market making strategy for stablecoins using the 1inch Limit Order Protocol
Write a smart contract that creates buy/sell orders for stablecoins. The idea is to be able to buy stablecoins at lower rates and sell at higher rates, making a profit on rate differences. A smart contract would simultaneously create buy and sell orders.
#6 Open Track
Suggest your own solution, keeping in mind that the 1inch Limit Order Protocol has conditional execution and arbitrary price discovery.

At Optimism, we're on a mission to scale Ethereum to the masses and sustainably fund public goods in the process!
From the code to the values, we are Ethereum-aligned. We believe Ethereum has the potential to solve some of humanity’s most crucial coordination issues. Since our initial inception as a non-profit research group, we have sought to scale both its technology and values.
At present the most pressing bottleneck to the growth of Ethereum is its performance and scalability. We are building the most elegant solution to this problem. We do this out in the open because we believe in open source and its ability to accelerate innovation.
Not only do we improve Ethereum's performance by orders of magnitude, we donate 100% of the profits generated from doing so to Ethereum public goods. We do this because we believe the future of the open internet is too important to be left to chance. By operating as a Public Benefit Corporation we're able to align private incentives with public good and create a positive-sum economic model that provides a sustainable future for the internet.

Spruce lets users control their data across the web. We believe that the world is evolving toward one based on cryptography, networks, and digital economies that are user-controlled. Today, the dominant use case for user keys is the signing of blockchain transactions, but we think this barely scratches the surface of what is possible. Soon, the entirety of a user’s digital interactions will be based on their keypairs, and we’re unlocking this transition with our constellation of products. We meet users where they are, and empower them to use their existing keys to Sign-In with Ethereum, manage their digital identity, private storage, and more.
🏆 Spruce wants to encourage the creative use of Sign-In with Ethereum to build rich Web3 applications. Spruce will be awarding $4,000 USD worth of prizes for teams that use Sign-In with Ethereum in their applications to meaningfully gate usage and access in certain ways, contribute to or extend our existing open-source libraries, or is generally a part of the core application flow.

Evmos is the one of the first Ethereum Virtual Machine-based blockchains in the Cosmos ecosystem and enables developers to launch apps that run smart contracts across any number of EVM and Cosmos-based blockchains. It makes that process as simple and seamless as possible by allowing developers to continue creating apps in Solidity and Vyper like they’re accustomed to in the Ethereum ecosystem. Evmos opens a new frontier for blockchain applications, expanding the functionality of the EVM by enabling cross-chain applications that tap the liquidity and user bases of multiple blockchain ecosystems to provide more unified experiences.
🏆 Evmos is offering:
🥇 Grand Prize: $2,000
