IPFS is a peer-to-peer network and protocol designed to make the web faster, safer, and more open. IPFS upgrades the web to work in a decentralized manner, addressing data by what it is instead of where it’s located on the network or who is hosting it.
Filecoin, the world’s largest decentralized storage network, allows users to store, request, and transfer data via a verifiable marketplace. Filecoin is an entirely open-source alternative to costly cloud storage, where a blockchain network offers efficiently priced and geographically decentralized storage that ensures the persistence of user’s data.
If you would like to get started now and learn about the key concepts behind IPFS and Filecoin, please check our Resources page here. We prepared this content to help you build with them, including developer tools that help you store data on both IPFS and Filecoin quickly and easily.
🏆 IPFS / Filecoin is offering:Challenge: 'Best use of IPFS for content-addressing and/or Filecoin for decentralized storage or anything that builds on top of either
🏊 Prize Pool - $5,000 - for anyone building on IPFS or Filecoin; distributed equally among all qualifying meaningful submissions.
To qualify for the pool prize you must make use of any of: nft.storage, web3.storage, or estuary.tech.

Superfluid is an asset streaming protocol that enables subscriptions, salaries and rewards to DAOs and crypto-native businesses. It can be used to describe cash flows and execute them automatically on-chain over time in a non-interactive way. Superfluid streams are programmable, composable and modular. The first cash flow types allow constant streams of value and one-to-many distributions. All streams are settled at the same time, based on block timestamps. No capital is locked up, and all inflows and outflows are netted in real time, drastically increasing capital efficiency. A curated suite of developer tools is available, ranging from extensive documentation on the smart contract framework, to SDKs for easy integration (Solidity, Typescript, Redux), to a developer Console to query all needed data during testing and debugging.

Swing is a cross-chain liquidity infrastructure API that lets developers quickly build cross-chain dApps. Swing takes care of underlying infrastructure like multi-chain bridging, liquidity sourcing and routing so that developers can focus on building their application. Swing is built by a team of Silicon Valley engineers from Apple, Amazon, Linkedin and backed by Republic Capital, Arrington Capital, Avalanche, Celer, Bitcoin.com and more.
Swing is the fastest way to integrate cross-chain bridges and multi-chain liquidity into your web3 project.
🏆 Swing will be awarding prizes to all projects that build dApps or integrate with the Swing API

Connext is the interoperability protocol of L2 Ethereum. Connext enables sending value and calling contracts across Ethereum-compatible chains and L2s, with plug-in support for non-Ethereum systems. Unlike other approaches, the Connext does this without weakening economic security by introducing third party validators - it instead has the same trust considerations as the underlying chain(s).
🏆 Connext is offering: 🥇 $3,000: Best use of a cross-chain dApp that uses permissioned calls (e.g. DAO governance) 🥈 $1,000: Best use of a cross-chain dApp that uses permissionless calls (e.g. deposit into an LP) Judging Criteria Creativity - Demonstrate use cases that we haven’t thought of or improve the user experience for existing flows in novel ways. Quality - While hackathons are a sprint and we fully expect end results to be scrappy, we’ll give bonus points to projects that deliver with more polish. Impact - Bonus points for projects that can create value for the wider ecosystem.

MakerDAO is an open-source project on the Ethereum blockchain and a Decentralized Autonomous Organization1 created in 2014. The project is managed by people around the world who hold its governance token, MKR. Through a system of scientific governance involving Executive Voting and Governance Polling, MKR holders manage the Maker Protocol and the financial risks of Dai to ensure its stability, transparency, and efficiency. MKR voting weight is proportional to the amount of MKR a voter stakes in the voting contract, DSChief. In other words, the more MKR tokens locked in the contract, the greater the voter’s decision-making power.
