Decentralized Web3 meets Open Source

FOSSASIA partners with Devfolio to host a digital hackathon in the days leading up to our annual FOSSASIA Summit. Sponsored by ChainLink.

📅 When: 5 - 7th April 2024
🌎 Where: Online
💻 What: FOSSASIA Hackathon with up to $5000 in prizes, credits and Devcon ticket giveaways!

The online hackathon will run from the 5 - 7th of April, hosted on Devfolio. Prizes will be presented in person, on the third day of the FOSSASIA summit.

We invite hackers from across the world to come and build important infrastructure and tooling using Chainlink, a web3 oracle, which solves data availability across blockchain.

Build something awesome using Chainlink!

Anything that came from the Chainlink Documentation counts - using CCIP, Functions, Price Feeds, Data Streams, PoR, VRF or Automation

You can see examples of successful implementations of Chainlink services here.

Functions use cases - examples:

• Generative AI NFTs using Chainlink Functions
• Censorship-resistant news headline aggregator that uses - Chainlink Functions and prominent news APIs
• Verifiable AI: Can use Functions to verify the output of an AI LLM, & get an attestation that the output is correct & what the LLM actually outputted

Requirements:

Each project must use Chainlink in some form to make a state change on a blockchain, otherwise it will not be eligible. This means that a front end simply reading from Chainlink Data Feeds doesn't count. Using Chainlink inside your smart contracts is required.

While all project submissions are evaluated holistically, there will be bonus points given to projects that use Chainlink services together in a meaningful way.
Please let us know how you use Chainlink in the project description.

It must be possible for the judges to find the Chainlink use in your code. Only the intention to use is not valid.

Judging criteria:

UI/UX/DX - How useful is your application? Is it visually appealing?

Blockchain technology application - How valuable this project is for decentralization and adoption of Blockchain and Web3

Wow Factor- Anything not covered above! This is if you blow us away in some other way.
