Unlock the Full Potential of Web3
Join the Privacy4Web3 Hackathon

$55,000 in grants and prizes!

Web3 needs privacy that is customizable, cross-chain, and easily accessible to both users and developers. Oasis is pushing the limits on what is possible with privacy in crypto with the Oasis Privacy Layer, and we want you to join us.

The Privacy4Web3 hackathon is an invitation for builders to experiment and innovate with the Oasis Privacy Layer to build privacy-enabled applications and tooling.

Who?

You! …and any crypto-native friends

What is the Oasis Privacy Layer?

(“OPL”) is a cross-chain EVM-compatible privacy solution that opens new frontiers for confidential smart contracts in Web3 applications on the most popular EVM networks like Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Polygon.

What to Build?

A familiar EVM development environment with added confidentiality opens up a new world of opportunities for builders and Solidity developers across EVM networks.

  • If you have already built a dApp on an EVM network (e.g. Ethereum, BNB, Polygon, etc.), please join the hackathon as adding privacy with OPL might help improve your product/user experience.
  • If you’re interested in building a brand new privacy-enabled dApp on Sapphire, you’re also welcome to join.

Some ideas we would like to see in the Hackathon include, but are not limited to:

Governance/DAO  Tooling using OPL

  • Secret ballot tools offering functionality beyond the starter repo.

Gaming

  • Let’s bring more game logic on-chain using OPL!
  • Build engaging, captivating games that utilize the Sapphire RNG.
  • Any other creative application of OPL for games.

SBT’s/Verified Credentials

  • Create an application that leverages SBTs/verified credentials using OPL

NFTs

  • NFT fractional/hidden ownership.
  • Data privacy [for NFTs and associated off-chain data] using OPL for key management.

Others

  • The sky's the limit! Surprise us!
Docs and tutorials to be provided soon. Stay tuned!

  • Innovation: How creative and unique is the project?
  • User Experience: Does the project’s design make the user experience easy?
  • Originality: The project must be substantially different from any other app submitted by the same submitter/team/organization and must be the original work of the submitter, be solely owned by the submitter, and not violate the IP rights of any other person or entity

Prizes and Judging

We’ve put together a fantastic line-up of mentors and judges, all of whom are privacy experts across different segments of Web3. These friends and partners will be on hand throughout the hackathon to provide mentorship– they’ll also evaluate the final projects! Final judging will occur [date] and winners will be announced on or around [date]
