Call for Applications: The African Decentralized UMOJA ALGORAND Bounty Hack II
The program will be in the form of an online Bounty Hack Series which is a guided hackathon in which participants (teams and individuals) learn to build blockchain apps (dApps) and then complete projects from a pre-approved list over the course of six weeks.
Each team will be assigned a mentor who will work closely with the team to help them succeed to their fullest potential.
The dApps developed are presented at the end of the hack and voted on by participants. Prizes will be awarded to the top three teams. However, the hack doesn’t end there.
Teams can earn prizes and incentives just for participating! Details on prizes and incentives are listed below.
- 1st prize: $3,000; 2nd prize: $2,000; and 3rd prize: $1,000
- $800 to all other participating teams for project completion
- $1,000 Community Choice award
- $250 for writing an article describing your project
- $200 for joining a call describing your project to the project team after the hack
- $500 for turning your project into a Reach workshop (with a pull request) or $750 for turning your project into a Reach tutorial (with a pull request)
- Up to $1,000 after completing your project through content incentives
