ETHIndia 2022
Polygon is the leading platform for Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development. Its growing suite of products offers developers easy access to all major scaling and infrastructure solutions: L2 solutions (ZK Rollups and Optimistic Rollups), sidechains, hybrid solutions, stand-alone and enterprise chains, data availability solutions, and more. Polygon’s scaling solutions have seen widespread adoption with 18000+ applications hosted, 1B+ total transactions processed, ~100M+ unique user addresses, and $5B+ in assets secured.
🏆 Polygon is offering a total of $20,000 in prizes
Polygon has five problem statements for hackers.
Eligibility Criteria: To be eligible for a Polygon prize you must deploy a smart contract to either the Polygon Mainnet or the Mumbai Testnet. Within your project’s README, include a link to the deployed smart contract on Polygonscan and write a short paragraph noting the prize you are targeting and describing how your hack solves the problem statement. Tell us what you’re building #onPolygon by tagging @0xPolygonDevs on twitter.
Exception: If you are building a Developer Tool, you must specify how this benefits the Polygon ecosystem if you are not deploying a specific smart contract for the project.
📇 $4,000 for best use of Polygon ID - Polygon ID is a solution that provides self-sovereign, decentralized and private identity for the next iteration of the Internet. Create a product that integrates Polygon ID’s on-chain verification and permissionless attestation. Within your project’s README, include a link to the deployed smart contract on Polygonscan.
💸 $4,000 for best Defi project(s) - Polygon has a robust defi ecosystem, and we would love to see you building within it. We would love to see your Defi projects come to life, and in case you need some ideas, here are some challenges from our defi team on some impactful projects that can be built during the hackathon. Within your project’s README, include a link to the deployed smart contract on Polygonscan.
🍀 $4,000 for best public goods - Public goods are good. Solve a problem relevant to any community you are part of by building either a public good or a regenerative finance app. Explain how someone would benefit from your hack and how it could scale globally. Within your project’s README, include a link to the deployed smart contract on Polygonscan.
💻 $4,000 for best UX or DevX - One of the most challenging problems in Web3 is creating an intuitive and seamless User Experience for dapps. Build a dapp that raises the bar for UX in some way. Hint: check out Rahat’s EthOnline talk on UX. Within your README, explain what you’ve done to hack together an MDP (minimum delightful product). Note: building better UX does not necessarily mean building cool new UIs. Within your project’s README, include a link to the deployed smart contract on Polygonscan.
🛠 $4,000 for best Developer Tool or DAO Tooling - Improving the developer experience (DX) is one of the key ways of gaining mass adoption of web3. Hack together an SDK, API, or tool for improving collaboration across DAOs and general web3 teams. Within your project’s README, include a link to the deployed smart contract on Polygonscan.
