HackFS 2023 is wrapped up and here’s what we have to say about this great event!
What is HackFS?
HackFS is an annual event organized by ETHGlobal, a leading organization in the blockchain and Ethereum ecosystem. The event is a three weeks-long hackathon that brings together developers, designers, entrepreneurs, and blockchain enthusiasts from around the world.
At HackFS 2023, participants were encouraged to leverage the power of Web3 technologies to revolutionize the traditional financial landscape. With the integration of blockchain and smart contract platforms, developers have the opportunity to reimagine ownership, value exchange, and trust through dApps.
From June 2nd to 21st, 838 builders from 73 countries ventured into the world of Web3 with a focus on dApps, decentralized storage, and everything in between. As a result, 200 incredible projects were submitted.
DataverseOS bounty
DataverseOS is honored to be one of the bounty partners among other leading web3 protocols. To encourage hackers to re-imagine data ownership, we offered a bounty of $5000, for the most inventive use of DataverseOS.
The directions we pointed out were:
- Explore the DWeb, DAOs, SocialFis and AI use-cases.
- Integrate Dataverse wallet to interact with FEVM
- Create toolkits with partner technology to demonstrate DataverseOS composability
An intro of our bounty and SDK workshop:
Our Bounty Winner
We are more than excited to appoint our bounty to Pensieve, decentralized file storage to recreate moments in our memories and share them with others. Our team was thrilled to see how Pensieve used Dataverse for the frontend development in their project, so the users would be able to connect on Filecoin network to the dApp through the Dataverse Wallet. It gives the dApp access to the user’s encrypted storage on Ceramic ComposeDB.
How does Pensive work?
The users can register a new event by proving their ownership of POAP NFT of that event and POAP NFTs for the demo are created on FVM with their metadata stored on NFT.Storage. Thus, when users upload photos, the photos are encoded and passed to Bacalhau’s containerized machine-learning image processing flow and Bacalhau stores the processed output on IPFS.
Projects worth mentioning
We received many amazing projects, which were developed using DataverseOS. Among them we want to give shoutouts to the following projects that have a huge potential to turn into something great.
Dat-Sat-4A!, FIL CAD, Filroad, Netcast and Polyverse,
Dat-Sat-4A!: A groundbreaking solution to transform dataset enhancement and collaboration. It empowers individuals to actively engage in hackathons by uploading their datasets and scripts effortlessly and give users the ability to enhance, transform, and filter their data, unlocking new possibilities for innovation and collaboration.
FIL CAD: A developer tool to enable CAD designers and Web3 artists with on-chain and open source raster graphics editor for free form drawing, editing using Filecoin and Web3 ecosystem tools.
Filroad: A one Stop Platform to buy and sell all digital products for all creators and DataDAO aggregators.
Netcast: enables privacy preserving Web3 social content distribution through zero knowledge machine learning enabling every content to be attested from it was original produced. Content producers can attach/sign content with zk proofs to distinguish them from any other AI generated content online with a verified sticker similar to a verified account
Polyverse: A groundbreaking Web3 content platform. Through it, creators can seamlessly publish and share their work with their audience, knowing that their content is protected through smart contracts and cryptographic signatures. This ensures that creators’ intellectual property rights are respected and they receive appropriate recognition and compensation for their contributions
We want to thank all the teams for creating such great use cases of DataverseOS, and HackFS for organizing this amazing hackathon year after year. We will continue to help builders to come into the web3 world and offer our tech stacks as well as support, so stay tuned!
About DataverseOS SDK
DataverseOS is the sovereign data operating system, which coordinates web3 protocols among users and varied applications. It brings a new kind of Identity Computer for running storage-based dApps that return data ownership to users. DataverseOS unlocks possibilities of data tokenization and supports web-scale use-cases, e.g. content platforms, social networks, cloud storage, AI, tools for thoughts and more.
Dataverse Wallet is the first identity authenticator based on EIP-4361 and EIP-5573, which makes it safe for users to sign in #dataverse dApps and access data resources with signatures. Developers can also integrate this wallet to interact with FEVM.
Dataverse Runtime is dApp SDKs to access data protocols such as Ceramic, Lit and Lens. Developers can integrate built-in functions, e.g. account (wallet/pkh/pkp), database and stream, access control and monetization, file system and storage.
