The Telos Foundation is sponsoring the Ready Hacker One contest with a prize pool of 250,000 TLOS with individual teams eligible to earn up to 40,000 TLOS each.

Developers must use the power of Telos and EOSIO to create a new or enhance a pre-existing game. The game can be simple or complex, the key is how you use blockchain to make gaming engaging and fun.

The free Telos Testnet faucet and a community of friendly developers will be available to assist you along the way. While, using Telos/EOSIO is a must, you are also free to use any technology stack you wish.

We even have some ideas to get your creative juices flowing!

Cool stuff you can do with Telos blockchain:

Turn weapons and objects into Non Fungible Tokens (NFT’s)

Have an in game currency that functions like a real economy and can one day be traded outside the game
