About the challenge

Blockchain technology is at the forefront of technological innovation, and we're here to guide you through the process of mastering. At our hackathon, developers will gain invaluable insights into the foundations that power revolutionary decentralized applications empowering them to understand the technology behind blockchain scalability and interoperability.

Regardless of whether you're a seasoned developer or a curious newcomer, our hackathon welcomes participants of all backgrounds and skill levels. 

During this hackathon, you will also have support and resources to integrate blockchain solutions in a technical or non-technical context, and how to build decentralized Apps that solve real-world problems using vCore-based Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) and Base protocol for added advantages.

Up to $1,000 in prizes along with the opportunity for your project to be featured on prominent blockchain and technology social channels. Join us in the LBW2024 Onchain Summer Hackathon to embark on your journey towards blockchain proficiency and prepare for the era of decentralized innovation.
