What is ROFL?

ROFL (Runtime Off-Chain Logic) is a framework that adds support for off-chain components to runtimes like Oasis Sapphire. It enables non-deterministic behavior and access to remote network resources.

ROFL also allows for off-chain components to seamlessly communicate with the onchain realm to bring about full composability across different blockchain platforms and off-chain computation stacks.



ROFL enables decentralized agents powered by AI to have private state and interact with the world including other agents via transactions, queries and oracles, making it much easier to run complex workloads in a decentralized fashion.

What is Sapphire?

Oasis Sapphire — the first and only confidential EVM in production — provides developers with the ability to build EVM-based dApps with customizable levels of privacy.

Sapphire’s confidential computing gives builders the tools to integrate privacy at any point of the spectrum: 100% private, 100% public, or anywhere in between.

What to Build?

Explore the Oasis Network’s familiar development environment with industry-leading confidentiality. Discover a new world of opportunities for developers across all EVM networks.

  • New teams who are building in crypto are invited to integrate Oasis technology into their early-stage application to improve user experience and onchain data confidentiality.

  • Builders who have already launched applications in crypto are also invited to explore Oasis confidential computing for the benefits it could add to your existing userbase.

DeFi

Build privacy-preserving applications around dark pools, dutch auctions, cross-chain swaps, and more!

NFTs

Brainstorm tools for data privacy for NFTs and related offchain data.

Gaming

Break the link between in-game profiles and onchain accounts! Create trustless, hidden fog-of-war mechanics, and explore the agent-gaming design space to lay the foundations for more captivating games!

Trustless Oracles

Use verifiable and confidential off-chain computation governed by policies stored onchain.

AI Agents

Store agent private keys onchain, verify offchain agent workloads, and more.

Be Creative!

All ideas that push the boundaries of onchain confidentiality are welcome!

Requirements and Judging Criteria

Submission Requirements

  • Provide a short summary of your project, including a description of what it is and how you want to evolve it.

  • Provide a link to your code repository for judging and testing. Code must be open sourced.

  • Provide smart contract deployment links (addresses on Sapphire mainnet or testnet)

  • Include a video (less than 5 minutes) that shows how your project works and why you built it. Videos must be uploaded to YouTube, Vimeo or a similar site and made public.

  • All projects must use Sapphire or ROFL. While Emerald, the Oasis EVM Paratime is live, deploying on Emerald does not qualify for the hackathon.

Judging Criteria

  • Implementation Quality

    Does the project demonstrate high-quality development?

  • Potential Impact

    How large an impact could the project have? How many users could the project potentially attract?

  • Confidentiality

    How well does the dApp utilize confidential smart contracts?

  • User Experience

    Does the project’s design make the user experience easy?

  • Bonus: Innovation

    How well does the project utilize the new Oasis confidential Runtime Off-chain Logic (ROFL) to solve a problem?
