About the Hackathon

The FVM Dataverse Hack is your opportunity to build projects that may potentially become core building blocks in the Filecoin ecosystem: either as products that help end users benefit from the properties of a decentralized storage network, or DeFi applications for the Filecoin island economy or developer tools that will potentially help thousands of developers build dApps on Filecoin in the future. This hackathon is part of the series of Builder Support programs that the Filecoin community regularly puts together, and that brings out the best in builders who come up with brilliant ideas.

What to Build?

Create a working software application that has a meaningful use of the Filecoin Virtual Machine (FVM) within at least one of the six (6) tracks below:

  •  DataDAOs: Best DataDAOs built on FVM that enable curation, usage, storage, and analysis of valuable datasets.
  •  DeFi: Best DeFi tools and services built on FVM.
  •  Tools & Infra: Best tool or project built on FVM to a) improve the UX for Filecoin storage providers & clients, b) improve the app workflow on Filecoin, or c) support building cross-chain solutions.
  •  Programmable Storage Markets: Best ideas to orchestrate, aggregate, and broker storage on the Filecoin network built on FVM.
  •  Compute over Data: Best project built on FVM to facilitate decentralized computing.
  •  Wild Card: Awarded to out-of-the-box projects built on FVM. Bonus points for projects drawing on the uniqueness of Filecoin and its storage capabilities – let your imagination run free!

What to Submit?

At a minimum submissions for prizes should include the following items:

  1. Project Description
    • The name and summary of the project.
    • Names/pseudonyms of team members and contact info (e.g., GitHub handle, email address, or other).
    • How the project uses the FVM with explicit links to files & functions in code where this technology is used and addresses of smart contracts deployed.
  2. Link to the publicly visible source code repository
    • Provide comprehensive README, incl. a clear description of the work and mention of how our tech is used in the Technologies Used section of README.
    • Include a link to the working demo or provide a testing guide.
  3. Showcase
    • Short (typically 2-3 minute) video that presents the idea, including a brief demo that demonstrates the use of FVM.

Eligibility

  • Building with FVM is a primary requirement to qualify for any bounty (including other sponsors).
  • Submitting the same project across multiple hackathons will lead to disqualification.
  • Projects that have been awarded Filecoin grants will not be awarded a Hackathon prize if their grant has been approved and the scope of work for the hackathon and the grant are the same.
  • Only projects or features (preferably in a separate branch) built specifically for the respective hackathon will be considered for prizes.
  • Broken links may disqualify the project from the judging process.

Judging Criteria

  • Novelty/Creativity
    Does it have unique and novel features or combine features of other products or services in a unique and novel way? Does it solve a new problem? Is it creative and puts a smile on people’s faces?
  • Potential Impact
    Does it fill a gap in the universe, and have the potential to be used frequently by a large, growing, and diverse audience or market?
  • Technical Accomplishment
    Is the code elegant, clean, and technically interesting? Is the project complete?
  • FVM Implementation
    How well integrated and critical a part is the FVM of your project? How well does your project leverage content addressing that is native to FVM?
  • Design
    How is the UX/UI/DX? Is it easy to use? If targeting developers, is the experience smooth and intuitive? Does the visual design delight you?
