50 blockchain teams have used CoinList to raise $450 million. But teams need more than just funds to succeed. They need community. With that in mind, CoinList is now helping teams engage developers and build community through a new product, CoinList Build. Build will initially focus on connecting teams and developers through online hackathons. Online hackathons allow anyone on earth with an internet connection to participate and can run for weeks instead of days, leading to more impactful projects.

CoinList is hosting its first hackathon with 0x

0x is an open protocol that enables the peer-to-peer exchange of tokens on the Ethereum blockchain. The 0x team constantly ships new product, has built a phenomenal developer infrastructure, and their protocol supports dozens of independent businesses by enabling the trading of in-game items, traditional financial assets, and much more. We could not be more excited to work with them.

To grow the 0x ecosystem, CoinList Build and 0x are launching an online hackathon: Bringing Decentralized Markets to the Masses.

You can sign up here.

We’re really excited about the potential for decentralized markets to unlock innovation, but usability is still a barrier to widespread adoption. We’re looking forward to seeing participants solve these problems.

Prizes

0x is awarding over $50,000 in ZRX tokens. This includes a $10,000 grand prize, $7,500 community choice award, and $2,500 for finalists in each category. 0x will also be giving $100 in ZRX to each participant that submits a project.

  • Investors: Ash Egan (Accomplice), Joel Monegro (Placeholder), Nick Tomaino (1Confirmation), Linda Xie (Scalar Capital), Ali Yaha (A16Z Crypto)
