IDENA is launching COREA Hackathon which aims to encourage developers to create new decentralized applications or to migrate existing applications to IDENA blockchain.
Idena’s unique identity protocol combined with existing crypto-primitives opens up possibilities for a new kind of human-centric decentralized applications.
One of the benefits of building on IDENA blockchain is that even non-crypto users can interact with your dApp as they could easily earn some iDNA coins to pay for gas.
Idena smart contracts provide near-native performance, strong security and flexibility of languages which can be compiled to WASM.
From DeFi, Web3, Gaming, Digital Art/Collectibles, decentralized social media to infrastructure apps and tools, choose whatever you like and join COREA Hackathon to enrich the IDENA ecosystem.
Prize Bounty
250,000 iDNA in total:
- First place gets 100,000 iDNA
- Second place gets 60,000 iDNA
- Third place gets 30,000 iDNA
- Fourth place gets 30,000 iDNA
- Fifth place gets 30,000 iDNA
Hackers receive prizes only if they meet the submission requirements.

What is Idena?
Idena is the first blockchain that utilizes a unique consensus mechanism called Proof-Of-Person, which prioritizes people over tokens. Unlike other systems that rely on money-based governance, Idena operates on the principle of “one person, one vote,” ensuring that power is distributed equally among all participants. This prevents a small group from gaining too much control.
Idena offers a puppet-resistant crypto-identity primitive, which is used for democratic voting, Quadratic Funding, fair airdrops and decentralized governance.
Idena is accessible to anyone. It does not require any personal information and allows participants to join the network without any investments. Users play an active role in mutual verification by challenging each other with AI-resistant FLIP-tests. This process is done in a synchronous ceremony, which ensures that individuals cannot spoof multiple accounts.
The network is protected from Sybil attacks through regular validations and Quadratic Staking. Quadratic Staking is a mechanism that prevents large stake holders from dominating the network and encourages small individuals to secure their identities with stakes ensuring democratic staking rewards distribution.
