We are thrilled to support BNB and CyberConnect for Connected 2023 — a global web3 social hackathon!

Have an idea for a new web3 social project and are not sure where to start? We are happy to help provide all the information to qualify for the Notifi prizes. Notifi founders are firm believers in the power of hackathons as they built our MVP at a hackathon and raised $12.5M within the first year of operation. Bear markets are for builders, and we are here to support your web3 social ideas during office hours from ideation sessions to code tech reviews.

Connected 2023 Overview

Connected 2023 is an exciting opportunity for developers and designers to create innovative solutions that leverage blockchain technology to address social challenges, and this event offers a chance win 50K+ in prizes plus mentorship and seed funding. This is an amazing opportunity to take your ideas from concepts to fundable projects. The Connected 2023 Web3 Social Hackathon is not an event for purely builders, they even have an option for non-developers to get involved as a user.

Notifi Hackathon Challenges

To be eligible to win Notifi’s Connected 2023 challenge — teams need to build one of the following use cases:

💡 Notifi & XMTP
Modify the Notifi SDK so that whenever you receive a message in your XMTP chat, you get notified on your email/sms/telegram. Developers must allow XMTP conversation topics to be set on the Notifi SDK so that users can receive notifications of new message arrivals on their email/sms/telegram. **We can provide a sample Figma to help visualize what the end product could look like.

💡Notifi & CyberConnect
For CyberConnect’s Link3, create a module that detects new events and uses Notifi’s SDK to allow users to subscribe to Broadcast notifications to stay up to date.

💡Notifi & Livepeer
Integrate Notifi’s SDK into the Livepeer platform, allowing users to subscribe to notifications when new Livepeer content is created.

Judging Criteria
