Snippets

Still missing just a couple of speakers, but I'm going to go ahead and do a really quick intro for the first we've got Dataverse up here who's actually been ran by Cassie. We're going to do a real quick intro on
Dataverse OS, we also have Jistina, who is the lit head of Dev-- oh, I'm sorry. I'm looking at the Rammword. It works with ceramic developer success.
And then we also have the COO of a data verse up here as well. And I think we've got a couple more coming in and we will get on with the announcements.
Cassie, how are you doing today?
I'll go ahead and kick it over to Justina. Justina, how are you doing today?
Yeah, I'm doing great. It's really great to be part of this hackathon and also great to be part of this Twitter space. Really excited.
Excellent excellent
And, Jane, you want to go ahead and introduce yourself and introduce a dataverse.
Oh yeah, my name is Louis and I am a first tech developer. I've been in blockchain industry for nearly two years and now I work as CEO of Database. Awesome. Tell me about Database.
So where did the idea of dataverse so as come from and what problem are you guys really trying to solve? Yeah, dataverse OS is a Web3 native data operating system. It controls and coordinates Web3 port codes among users
and where with applications, and the operating system will provide a programmable data layer for developers so that they can build depth with user sovereignty of data ownership. We built this operating system upon ceramic network, lead protocol, and we have just integrated particle network
login method. The operating system uses ceramic as a storage provider and fulfills an encrypted file system based on CompostDB. It's decentralized graph database on ceramic and we use lead protocol as the access control layer of the system. We've also designed
data wallet to help users securely manage their DID and signatures. And that's securely how they are far key. And we are thinking of adding lead action and you know PKPs to our system. We might even run the whole OS corner as a lead action. Our developers are
pushing ahead and hopefully we will see the update soon. And now users can sign into Dataverse OS through Particle or Solution. Particle did an awesome job simplifying the login process for Web3. And we are very glad to partner with Particle and improve the user
experience of our wallet. So, DataverseOS focuses on storing the lack of DataSeverting called by centralized storage and centralized computing in Web2. All data within DataverseOS is encrypted and could only be accessed with users' authorization. It's
in a decentralized way so it's stable, it's reliable, and it's hard to attack. And we provide data monetization solution for users to own in front of the value of the data and to turn, you know, personal data into real digital assets. That is awesome. Okay.
So let me ask you the next question is, okay, we've talked about the problem that we're solving. We're talking about what we're solving it with. We've mentioned some of the partners and everything. Let's talk about the hackathon. What are you guys giving away for the hackathon? Let's talk about some of the bounties and then what are some of the things you'd like to accomplish in the process?
Yeah, we are announcing this hack song to bring together Web3 technologies that can help us rebuild data sovereignty. We've got ceramic, lead, particle, and blockpile as ever partners. And these projects provide powerful infrastructure solutions to help the developers rebuild ownership. And we want to expose the next generation
the collaboration cloud personal computer and the feature of how tabs should deal with data together with the developer community. So Dataverse provides $3,000 in total split evenly between three tracks. The first track is to build decentralized social network using Dataverse
We encourage developers to use REST decay to handle user generated content and user profiles, social networking features such as following, commenting, sharing, and like, and could build social
on top of the data monetization feature provided in the operating system. And the second track is to fill a safe method for a person data storage like a cloud drive or something. And the third track is to build Web3 tools like nodes
news, or create all platforms like YouTube or music platforms or podcasts. And so our bunty is also open to any other creative ideas actually. Database OS could empower virus kinds of depth, so how hackers could have fun with our SDK.
Okay, that is awesome. All right, so I have a few follow up questions for that. I want to also before we get into that, I want to be able to introduce some of the hackathon partners and see if we've also talked about included some of their bounties as well. So one of the first hackathons
So, partners I'd like to call up is actually Deb. I haven't been able to get an introduction from you just yet. Deb is the, she's the lead Debraal for Lit Protocol. You want to go ahead and introduce yourself. Hi, awesome. Thank you. Hi, I'm Deb.
And I lead developer relations at lip protocol, which as you've heard a little bit of lit from folks here, we're a decentralized, kind of middleware platform that you can use for access control.
control for programmatic signing and so really trying to push forward usability in with three. And I'm excited to see y'all build. We have a few bounties throughout this hackathon and yeah we're just here to support.
So with your partnership currently right now, let me ask you this. I know you guys have a few bounties and everything. Give me the best case scenario as to what you guys see on a partnership. What is it you would like to see booked?
So on our ends, we're really excited around lit actions and programble key pairs. So some things that folks could do with lit actions and PKPs are being able to streamline onboarding. So someone could
OAuth into their Google account, they could sign in through their wallet or they could even do these like social login recoveries and we're actually really saying something soon where someone could actually login through SMS or email to be able to generate a wallet.
LIT wallet, which is like a NPC wallet, and the keys are distributed across our network. So rather than having a centralized key custodian, it's distributed across our network. And so that's something that we're really excited to see folks utilize and really just help more people
on board on to web 3 as well as making the use experience a lot easier so we're setting up we have a few things around like gasses transactions as well and setting up release servers and hopefully helping devs out and building all that so that that is obstructing
you to away from that end user or end person who might want to collect assets, collect NFTs, but it might be really scary for them thinking about all the security implementations, think about managing their keys. And so for us on lit, that's something that we think a lot about.
Perfect. That's what I mean, honestly, that's really exciting. I'm really excited to see what is built specifically with your protocol. Now let's jump over to a particle network. Let go ahead and introduce yourself. What bounties do you guys have? And at the end, you know, what is the best case scenario?
as to what you want to see built during this hackathon. Oh yeah, that's a lot of question but yeah anyway I can start from introducing myself. My name is Hayden and I'm currently doing that role in particle network and before I also have attending a many rounds of hack song
Also, get the first prize among several different ones. So really glad to be able to help everyone to succeed in the hackathon afterwards. And for Particle, we actually were a provider for building factory middlewares.
provides a whole bunch of comprehensive solutions for you guys to develop on a web tree or building a decentralized application. So our products including a secure authentication module, which you can utilize that to allow your user to log in.
to your application with traditional web2 methods and which is powered by NPC as well. Also, we can also enable your application to have a direct in-app wallet functionality. So you don't have to allow the user to install a third party
extension before using your app. So thinking about if you are building an app on LOS or Android, so they don't have to use another third party wallet to be installed before using your app. So that's a great improvement for the overall user experience when we're talking about method option.
And also we offer a one stop NFT solution, which including maintain marketplace. So basically you can have your own OpenC for your app. And also you can leverage our not RPC and custom API.
So that you can get like NFT data like user transaction data token related data and all of that functionality are free. So basically you can simplify the process for you to develop and also simplify the onboarding and user experience for your
users. Overall, our middleware is demonstrating the very remarkable results in boosting new user conversion. We can increase the rate from 15% with traditional map tree wallet methods to
19 to 95% with all kinds of web tools methods being integrated. So for our hackathon this time, be a kind of like encourage you guys to try out our services, which including the social logging authentication and also the in-app wallet services and also
Recently we have announced support for a car attraction. You can leverage it with very little engineering efforts to allow the user to be able to pay their transaction without gas. You can also allow them to do gas payments with ERC-22.
and simplifying overall transaction flow by bad transaction. That is to say you can combine different operations into one transaction for the user to sign. And also we support things like Jess as mentioned NFT if you want to build anything related to them.
you can also check out our documents and also some other things like cross-chain capability we are chain agglostic so basically for every ebm chain we can support and even for non-ewe like solar and soon we'll be supporting app tools and three and also we are multi-platform
So you can build a web and LAS or Android or even on gam engine like Unity or Unreal. We all have SDKs that is natively supporting them. And also if you want to build in a framework like
React Native or Flutter that's also possible. So yeah, and for our bounty this time we just want to say some good real really good user design and which can be implemented adopting with our region our services so that you can
provides the user with similness and user friendly experience so that both web3 natives and web2 new commerce can get on board to your product easily. So we hope to see such kind of like improvements for overall deapp litigation and the usual simil
file on body and process and also create engaging and intuitive user experience so that you can enable who is completely new to WebTree to use your DAPT as much as any additional
web2 application as well. Yeah, that's the total description for our bounty and we are giving out the rewards into three tiers. We'll be giving the first prize with 1,000 USD and the 2 for the
The second file will be $600 and the third prime will be $400. We are thrilled to see what innovative solution you will be building with. And best luck to all of you. Thank you.
Cool. Thank you so much, Aidan. That's a very comprehensive description. Yeah, I think Patrick's Internet is a little bugging. So late high, I was also bugging before. So I'm Cassie, had a media date of hers. First of all, huge thank you for all of the partners.
for being here. So next up I was so want to invite Justina from Ceramic Network to introduce you know a little bit about you, about Ceramic and the boundaries you're providing this time. Awesome, thank you so much. Yeah so once again hi everyone.
Everyone, my name is Jistina. I work as a developer success lead at Ceramic. So I do a lot of things, but most of the time I focus on making sure that developers have the tools and all the resources and education to build great applications on Ceramic
network. And yeah, we are really excited to be part of this hackathon because ownership of the user data and in general providing good data infrastructure for developers to build applications is something that we work quite specifically on at Syramic.
So a little bit about ceramic, what this is. So ceramic is a decentralized data network that powers an ecosystem of interoperable Web 3 applications and services. So you can think of it as a decentralized data infrastructure that enables developers to easily store application data also
So interact with it, for example, perform different queries, perform mutations. And in general, it allows developers to build applications that have a better user experience without sacrificing the user's ownership of their own data.
A few months ago we launched ComposedDB on Ceramic, which is our decentralized Composable Graph Database, and it combines Ceramic's underlying infrastructure, also GraphQL and reusable data models, and all of this unlocks the possibility
ability to build truly composable and interoperable applications that can share the data when they reuse the same data models that also unlocks a little bit more collaborative approach to developing applications because developers can share schema for specific
features that they are building out and then users can have more ownership of their data. They can bring the data with them when they sign up for new applications and so on and everything is still connected to the users. The centralize identifier, so it makes
sure that only the users can access that data in a way that they can create new data streams and they can perform mutations and none of other companies or developers can make any changes to their data that belongs to them.
Overall, it lets Web3 application support data intensive use cases, for example, rich social features like identity, also reputation, which is a big thing right now, shared knowledge graphs and dynamic collaboration. And we don't
We don't have one specific use case that we built ceramic and composed the before. We believe that any developer that is building Web 3 app and would like to use decentralized data layer for their applications should benefit from ceramic and composed the B, but we definitely see a lot of interest from developers that are building
applications in identity, doubt, tooling, prep-free social space, also knowledge and information graphs, for example, from this side world. And now AI is becoming quite hot topic as well. So we see some really interesting applications being built that combine AI tools
and the ceramic and compositive so it's really interesting space right now. And a little bit about our bounties for this hackathon so we have two bounties. One of them is for building applications that would improve DAO collaboration and the specifically
we would like to have developers build applications that would make it easier for DAO to track user contributions. And at the same time, those tools and applications should enable users and DAO members to build out their
distribution profiles and take those profiles from one doubt to another and so on. So we would really like to see what kind of ideas developers have here and what kind of apps they can build. We would love to see developers use ceramic and other partner tools.
from projects that are participating in this hackathon as well, for example, Databrars and others. That would be really amazing. So we really encourage that. So the winner of this bounty will be rewarded with the $1,500. And then we have another bounty, which is
specific integration bounty and we would really like to see some really good developer guides or tutorials built for how developers can integrate, compose the B on ceramic and let protocol. And the reason for that is because
we see that developers quite often use LUT protocol when it comes to encrypting data that is stored on ceramic network. And yeah, we would really like to see some really good content for it. So if you like technical writing, if you love writing tutorials,
you can actually work on this bounty and any kind of detailed guides that would make it easier for other developers in the future to use ComposDB and Ceramic and let's protocol would be amazing. So we have $500 for this bounty and we can't wait to see the submissions. So yeah, really excited about this.
looking forward to see what developers can build. Amazing. That is awesome. So sorry, I had to play a little switcheroo. The Twitter space won't let me unmute on the other account for some reason, so I'll take it over here. So to follow up with all of the bounties and everything,
There's an extra little thing I always like to ask and this is something that I mean maybe, maybe you guys are, maybe you guys aren't, but I think it's an extra bit of a carrot for a lot of hackathon submissions. Is anybody, any of you hiring, particle, dataverse, ceramic, lit?
I love to think of hackathons. It's a really awesome way to possibly get a job. Is that something that we can also dangles the care here? Is anybody in your space hiring? I saw Deb's hand go first. Deb, you go ahead. Yeah, so we are
are looking for a product manager. So if there are folks interested in that, like please also reach out. And then I think a little bit about lit that we also didn't get to mention was on our, I'm just going to do a quick thing on our prize pool, which we're doing.
1700 USDC split across top three projects using lit actions and programmable key pairs. So just being able to set conditional and programmable actions for automating signing and then 300 USDC for most innovative use of lit protocol. Sweet, thanks. Awesome, Lou, go ahead.
Yeah, of course we are hiring, we are doing this hack song in order to reach out to creative developers and designers and product and whatever. If you are interested in data ownership and to
building the next generation personally identity computer we could work together and yeah we are hiring developers and communities and well many jobs
Awesome. Okay, so so far data versus hiring. Lit is hiring. If anybody else is hiring, go ahead and chime in because you know that honestly I think hackathons is just amazing way to get to know the protocol or the tech that you're working with that
during the hackathon and then just kind of be a quick introduction to that team. So yeah, this is also an amazing way, an amazing opportunity to participate in hackathons. So let's go into the hard dates. When does this start and how long is the hackathon?
Sorry Patrick, just to cut in right here. So well, yeah, first of all, also as diverse, if you're interested in, you know, in data ownership and if you're like a, you know, creator, marketer, community, please talk to us. We're really
looking for some new friends running us. And also before we jump into next question, I would like to invite Outwards from BlockPie also to introduce yourself and you know BlockPie, what are you guys doing over there and your bounties.
Oh, okay, thank you. Hi, my name is Albert and I'm from BlopPan Network. I'm the chief scientist of the BlopPan Network and BlopPan Network is a distributed multi-chain acceleration layer, not only just the
provide the high performance through our IPC service, but also featured IPC and account abstraction bundle service in the future. So the title of our bunty is to build a product
documents, IPC response cache embedded, providing instance response to users. Let me explain a little bit. So let's take the EVM IPC as examples. So there are different kinds of IPCs which can
be classified, some appc request are not block height sensitive or let's say time sensitive. Some some some of the appc even nothing to do with the block height. So
For example, the ETH-CHANID or the NetVersion. Some are not well-hidicensitiles, for example, the archive data. What we want to see is that
developer to build a cache strategy to save some data in cache for those APC requests, which is not block height sensitive and provide those
instance response to their users. So there are two advantages of this strategy. One is that you can save your usage for the RTC service. And the second one is that you actually increase your product performance.
Our bunty, we will, so what we want to see is that those developers build their own strategy, which is suitable for their own product.
and we will make the assessment and pick the top three and we will dispute 1,000 USDC to the best three. Thank you.
Awesome. Thank you so much and thank you Cassie for that catch. I really appreciate it. Okay, so let's get into the dates. When does everything start? How long is the hackathon?
Well, I'll take that from there. So we've actually already gone live just today. And so the restriation starts from today until June 7th. So we've got about like 10 days.
and the hacking will be from the S of June to the 25th. So around three weeks, since we have so many awesome bounties, we really want to offer enough time for our hackers to really get good ideas.
and I really have the solid time to view it on that. And yeah, then we'll have the demo and the judging, and we will announce the winners, I believe, in July, in early July.
Perfect. All right. Well, is there any other closing comments or anything you want to make Cassie or anybody else?
I think I would just really love to invite everyone, our speakers to just maybe have like a quick, you know, a comment or a wrap up on, you know, like, why should people come to this hackathon? Why should people, you know, look at their bags?
Whether you want to go from a technical point of view or you want to really be very sentimental about like, "Oh, this is a way of achieving mass adoption." So yeah, we can go from there.
Yeah, perfect go right ahead if you want to kick that off
Yeah, feel a combination of our four partners will be really start for building your application thinking of like using particles authentication into allowing the user to get amount to your app, then you can allow the
data that you want to see. You want to see all this in the protocol and get incorporated and store on the ceramic and also integrate with the blockpy RPC services to help you facilitate the Unchain Data
and analysis. That would be fantastic for building the next generation of applications. Take a good chance and learn more from all the participants and the partner here will definitely be beneficial for everyone to develop in the next stage.
Beautiful. Just seeing that you have any closing comics from ceramic? Yeah, sure. So I think for us it kind of goes two ways. One one reason why we would love to see developers working on our bound is is because as I mentioned we launched ComposedDB just a few months ago.
We would really love to see what kind of things developers want to build and can build with this technology and also to get feedback and see what kind of improvements we can make and how we can make the DX better and all of that stuff. And then it really
We really want to enable developers to build applications easier on open data network and also to give users of those applications more ownership of their data. So yeah, we'd really love to see developers joining us on this mission.
and building applications towards that. So yeah. Excellent. Debbie, you have any closing comments from the lit? Yeah, like I think from my point of view hackathons are a way to really experiment within a container.
So in this container we have dataverse, we have particle, we have composed, we have ceramic and we have lit and so how do people get also like resources to be able to just test something out or try something out and I really like to see just like
Even applications that may not have that may be like very forth thinking or very creative like I really want to push those and just to have people be building and learning and so wanting this to be a fun experience for folks as well as well as like if someone
is just like interested in learning in general. Like I think hackathons always have so many resources and different workshops and like I'm hosting workshops and I know folks here are hosting workshops so please like please just try it out learn about Web 3 learn about building
Perfect. Do we have any last closing comments from BlockPie? Yes. So actually the reason we sponsor this hexanoids is to want to build connection
with developers and we want to get feedback from the developers for our existing services and also during HECS on weekend
provide tech support or tech consultant for developers. So I think this is a good chance to improve each other.
Perfect. Any last closing comments from Cassie or from from the Universe?
Yeah, actually, the diverse team have been committed to solving the problem of data ownership using blockchain technology for years. And recently we finally reached the solution in a form of an operating system as the diverse OS.
very excited to introduce that DataWordsOS to everyone and explore all the possibilities of the system with creative developers. And personally, I think a combination of particle, ceramic, lead protocol, blockpy, and DataWordsOS.
Well, it would be a powerful combination of stacks for hackers to build phenomenal dabs with data sovereignty and user data ownership. And I'm super excited to see what's coming out of these hackers.
Excellent.
Yeah, and I also want to say that for me personally, I think like Vethery in general is still on the way to meth adoption and we need more people like building stuff in the space and I think hackathon is really a great way.
There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of motivation. There's a lot of#
for everyone, for our partners to be here and also developer Dow for hosting this awesome Twitter space. Developer Dow is definitely one of the most awesome developer communities out there and we're really proud and honored
to become your partner and hopefully in the future we'll be able to bring more of this kind of hackathon for developers, for builders and bring people together to make ideas come true. So yeah.
Um, really, thank you guys. Absolutely. And thank you, Tassie, for, uh, for the, uh, developer now mentioning if anybody ever wants to, uh, doesn't matter what state you are as a developer. I mean, you could be somebody that just literally, uh, that's totally fine.
Go ahead, check out developer now if you really want to learn anything about Web3 development and you want a community to surround yourself with. And also, I mean, we are always talking about hackathons. Come into the community, we love to have you here and we love to help you participate in hackathons like these.
I think that's it guys. Thank you guys so much for attending. I really look forward to seeing all the submissions and what comes out of this hackathon. You guys have an amazing time and I'll see you guys in the next space. Happy hacking guys.
Thank you Patrick.
Thank you.
