Today, a few big corporations manage 90% of the world's data and IT systems, and we are supposed to trust them.
We are here to challenge that.
Come and join us for a 30-day intensive hackathon, collaborating with the brightest minds in the cloud, web3 infra, data, zero-knowledge proofs, blockchain, and AI. Together, we will innovate and construct open technologies that will reshape the world's IT infra & Data landscape for the next 10-20 years.

Up to $10,000
Prizes (USDC, Bounties)
Without quality, reliable data, all webpages, apps, and the entire internet will cease to function. Being able to verify data and prove information without relying on a middleman fundamentally alters the landscape of how we store, share, and capture data worldwide. Develop a scalable algorithm/solution capable of proving and verifying that streaming data was received from a web endpoint at a specific time.
