Bring your innovative ideas and #buidl the future

Unlike traditional weekend hackathons, this will be a one week virtual event, which will allow anyone in the world to participate. We are encouraging individuals to come together and build on GoChain. New hackers welcome! If this is your first event don’t worry! We will have support 24/7 as well as mentors to help you along the way. If you do not have an existing idea or team you will have the opportunity to meet other hackers and build your own top team! All eligible submissions will be presented to our panel of judges as well as the GoChain community, who will get the chance to be involved and vote on the “Community Choice Award”.

“GoChain came from my poor user experience working with top protocols — plagued with high latency, fees, lack of adoption, and with no support for projects that build on their platforms. As a GoLang developer, I set out to architect a scalable solution built on the world’s most tested and proven smart contract blockchain protocol codebase — Geth. Since GoChain is 100% Ethereum backwards-compatible, 95% of blockchain developers in the ecosystem are also qualified GoChain developers and now have the opportunity to participate in a hackathon and build on the world’s only full-service, enterprise grade, public blockchain protocol. ” — Travis Reeder, GoChain CTO
