IOST x DoraHacks | Accelerating IOST Expansion Into India
The Indian blockchain market has attracted increasing attention in recent years,with the growth of blockchain technology having accelerated significantly in India. With rich developer resources, the Indian market has huge potential in promoting the development of blockchain and technology adoption.
Supported by Bluehill Foundation and in collaboration with DoraHacks, IOST plans to hold the first online DApp development hackathon from early May to June 15. DoraHacks has been rapidly expanding its global community since its inception. By utilizing its global developer resources, IOST aims to gain popularity and recognition among global developer community and discover more high quality developer individuals and teams.
The theme of this hackathon is DApp Game Development Based on IOST Mainnet, and BlueHill is providing generous rewards for DApp development participants. What differs this from other hackathons is that this event applies a unique way to give rewards away: the rewards pool is divided into 200 sections, with 10 held by each of 20 reviewers. Reviewers give rewards to the team they support in the form of voting. This method benefits skillful teams with more rewards, hence a huge motivation for them to further improve development quality.
Reviewers for this event are IOST core technical team members and IOST Node Partners, who are all from the core Dapp platforms, and excellent Dapp development teams with rich experience and deep understanding in blockchain and DApp products. In addition, several prominent Indian KOL and developers are also invited to be reviewers. These leading figures in Dapp industry greatly increase the credibility of this hackathon and help IOST better select DApps of high quality.
