EDCON Hackathon

We didn’t present anything, but we did hack for the 3 days of the hackathon on the Plasma Chain to understand more about this Layer-2 solution.

Our goal was to create a plasma operator with MESG, unfortunately there is not much documentation about this specific part. There is one really good thing though, there are some really good projects that let you run your own Plasma Chain or access one easily.

OmiseGO Ari: You can check the dev portal and some good documentation of their implementation.

Plasma Group to create your own Plasma Chain in just few command lines.

Loom SDK to create apps based on DAppChain that are linked to a Plasma Cash chain. Complex setup, but quite nice and really easy to use.

There is still some work to be done on the Plasma Chain (especially for the Generalized Plasma) but I was happy to see that it’s already pretty much production ready.

The hackathon in general was nice, we saw really good projects, some really cool tech that unfortunately didn’t win, but a team of 11 years old kids won the 3rd prize by creating a game, that was awesome.
