With the continuous development of Web3, the stage for technological reform has never been so diverse and exciting; innovation has become the core driving force for the industry. On the evening of December 22, 2024, the 'HashKey Hacker House Taichu' hosted by HashKey Chain, co-hosted by MetaEra, Orbiter Finance, and Umy.com, successfully concluded. This hackathon, themed 'Web3 Applications Within Regulatory Frameworks', attracted outstanding developers from around the world, providing a new perspective for exploring the future of blockchain.
During the three-day event, dozens of teams proposed creative and cutting-edge solutions, fully demonstrating the technical strength and market insight of global developers, and establishing HashKey Chain's image of innovation and trust in the global developer community.
Five Major Tracks: Future Technology Hotspots in Developers' Eyes
In this hackathon, participating developers focused on the core areas of the five major blockchain industries: DeFi, RWA, INO, payments, and cultural heritage, through creativity and technology. These tracks were not specifically set by HashKey Hacker House, but were voluntarily chosen by developers based on industry trends and technical challenges. They reflect the current innovative directions and market hotspots of the blockchain industry, and the developers' projects have brought many exciting breakthroughs to these areas:
DeFi: Dual evolution of technology and user experience
Decentralized finance has become one of the most mature application scenarios in Web3, but as user demand grows, its technical architecture and interaction experience still need continuous optimization. The Likwid project in this hackathon focuses on liquidity management, providing users with efficient asset allocation tools; Stable Swap targets the slippage problem in stablecoin exchanges, offering solutions for the multi-chain trading ecosystem. These two projects demonstrate the important trend of DeFi transitioning from technology-driven to user-friendly.
RWA: Bridging the future of traditional assets and blockchain
As traditional assets gradually embrace blockchain technology, the RWA track has received great attention. The participating project Asteroidx uses on-chain asset management tools to inject transparency into traditional financial products; Bnb3 explores innovative methods for mapping real-world assets onto the chain, allowing more people to participate in the global asset circulation. They provide practical cases for the application of blockchain technology in the traditional financial sector.
INO: Making NFTs a combination of tools and experiences
NFTs are no longer just simple collectibles; they are becoming more practical and valuable tool-like assets. Tiptag.social combines NFTs with social attributes to provide users with innovative interaction modes; HashKeyFun brings NFTs closer to users' lives through entertainment experiences. These projects illustrate the future potential of NFTs: not only as a store of value but also as a means of innovative experiences.
Payments: Opening the gateway to commercial blockchain
Payment scenarios are key to the large-scale application of blockchain technology. PolyFlow has created a multi-chain compatible payment system that offers efficient solutions for cross-chain payments; Trusta focuses on payment security, ensuring transaction transparency and trustworthiness. Together, they display the future blueprint of blockchain payments.
Cultural Heritage: Connecting Memory and Future through Technology
How can blockchain technology empower cultural preservation? The Fufuture and Rwalt projects explore new paths for the digital protection of cultural heritage. Through on-chain storage and interaction design, these projects not only breathe new life into traditional culture but also give technology deeper social value.
Awards Announcement: Outstanding Projects Shine on Stage
After more than two days of intensive development, the last day of the hackathon welcomed the most exciting segment - Demo Day. Each participating team took the stage in turn, presenting their creativity and technical achievements to the jury and audience through professional displays and live demonstrations. From technical principles to application scenarios, from product highlights to market potential, each team fully showcased the core value of their projects. The jury evaluated the projects based on innovation, technical depth, business prospects, and other dimensions, ultimately selecting a number of outstanding projects.
First Prize: Likwid & Stable Swap
Both tackle the core issues of DeFi from different angles. Likwid addresses the problem of asset fragmentation by enhancing liquidity efficiency, while Stable Swap focuses on optimizing the stablecoin trading experience. The judges stated: 'These two projects not only have strong technology but also effectively promote the further maturation of the DeFi ecosystem.'
Second Prize: Asteroidx & Lego Perpetual Protocol
Asteroidx's asset management tool gives on-chain assets greater flexibility, while Lego Perpetual Protocol provides a promising solution for the derivatives market. The judges believe they excel in the combination of technology and market demand, with a broad future outlook.
Third Prize: Bnb3 & Lightning Huskey
Bnb3 enables more people to participate in the circulation of blockchain assets by digitizing real-world assets; Lightning Huskey focuses on decentralized lending scenarios, promoting diversity in the RWA track. The judges particularly noted that they have opened new ideas for the application of real-world assets.
Innovation Award: Tiptag.social & X-Wallet
Tiptag.social demonstrates more possibilities for the application of NFTs through the combination of NFTs and social features; X-Wallet, as a wallet tool, simplifies users' cross-chain experience. The judges stated: 'They are not only highly innovative but also reflect a deep insight into user needs.'
Umy Special Award: PolyFlow & Trusta
The multi-chain payment compatibility of PolyFlow and Trusta's payment security solution showcase the infinite possibilities of the payment track. The judges praised them for 'providing new ideas for the popularization of blockchain payments.'
Tai Er · 614 Special Award: Fufuture & Rwalt
Both redefine the application scenarios of blockchain from a cultural perspective. Fufuture better preserves traditional cultural memories, while Rwalt makes cultural dissemination more attractive through innovative interaction forms. The judges stated: 'They provide a new interpretation of the social value of blockchain.'
Kay, CEO of HSK Eco Labs, stated during the awards ceremony: 'HashKey Hacker House is a stage for developers to unleash creativity and push technological boundaries. Over the three days, we saw many vibrant and promising projects, which not only filled me with confidence about the future of blockchain technology but also reinforced my belief that compliant innovation is the key to driving industry development. HashKey Chain will always stand with developers, empowering more excellent ideas and making the Web3 ecosystem more prosperous.'
The enthusiasm of developers and the future of the market
During this event, developers demonstrated a strong interest in optimizing DeFi user experience, RWA asset management, and functional NFTs. This not only reflects the actual needs of the industry but also provides inspiration for future market focal points. After the event, many developers expressed: 'HashKey Hacker House is not just a technical arena; it is also a stage for inspiring innovation.' The successful hosting of this hackathon brings more possibilities to the industry and again makes HashKey Chain the focus of global developers.
The mission of HashKey Chain: Compliant innovation drives a new chapter in the blockchain ecosystem
As one of the world's first public blockchains with compliance as its core strategy, HashKey Chain has carried a clear mission since its inception: to find a balance between compliance and innovation, providing trustworthy infrastructure for global developers and driving blockchain technology to truly reach the masses.
