The infrastructure finance (iFi) hackathon is drawing to close — there are just 3 days left to submit projects! From front ends to real world integrations, we are excited to see the many projects that are building infrastructure and telecom applications together with Althea L1. Thank you to the Bambu school in Medellin, Colombia who participated in learning and hacking with Althea.
It’s also been just three weeks since the Althea team deployed the first live test “Liquefaction” of an Althea asset. Liquid Infrastructure is the tokenization of Althea accounts, often associated with physical assets (like telecom towers or fiber optic infrastructure), that empowers new ways to fund, build and operate infrastructure.
Watch the live demo here >> Liquefying Infrastructure Demo: Bringing RWA on chain or dive into the technical details.
Once Althea assets become tokenized with Liquid Infrastructure, the transparent, permissionless and programmatic benefits of DeFi can be applied to Infrastructure, creating new markets in Infrastructure Finance.
The Althea testnet is live and open to new validators — if you’d like to get involved, join the community of over 100 testnet validators in Discord.
As we wrap up the Hackathon, we’ll have live demo days and a corresponding event at Mobile World Congress in Vegas! Stay tuned for updates and venue, and drop a line at hello@althea.net if you’d like to meet the team.
Or, if you are in Berlin Blockchain week, come meet the Althea team or join the talks at Dappcon!
