In the continuous quest to encourage and stimulate developers to build innovative DeFi products on Sui, NAVI released the NAVI SDK in March 2024.

This allowed aspiring builders to develop new lending and borrowing utilities using NAVI’s smart contracts and objects. To further incentivize builders to deploy solutions on top of NAVI’s robust smart contract environment, the team is excited to sponsor the ongoing Sui Overflow Hackathon.

Sponsorship Breakdown

NAVI will participate with a bounty of $12,500 for Sui Overflow and an additional bounty of $10,000 for building on top of NAVI.

Sui Overflow Sponsorship

NAVI’s sponsorship of the Sui Overflow encompasses the “Community Favorite Award”. To this end, NAVI will provide $12,500 rewarded equally to 5 x best projects participating in the Sui Overflow Hackathon, based on community voting, in $2,500 reward slots.

In addition to the Sui Overflow reward, and as part of the hackathon, NAVI will distribute a bounty of $10,000 in NAVX tokens, to developers that directly leverage NAVI SDK.

The prize distribution for this bounty is as follows:

Total prize pool: $10000 in $NAVX (SUI-native token with the most extensive use cases) by designing and deploying a meaningful and useful* flashloan bot that commits the most calls to NAVI’s flash loan feature, leveraging the NAVI SDK!

  2. Second prize — 2nd most calls to flash loan — $3000 in $NAVX
  3. Third prize — 3rd most calls to flash loan — $2000 in $NAVX

Your Impact: Design and deploy a meaningful and useful* flash loan bot that maximizes the utilization of NAVI’s flash loan feature, leveraging the NAVI SDK. Together, your submissions will help test and refine a robust flash loan mechanism that offers users efficient access to capital for various DeFi activities while ensuring security and reliability.
