This hackathon attracted a total of 57 teams to participate, with 28 teams in the MEME track and 29 teams in the game track, fully demonstrating the enthusiasm of Asian developers and creators for zkWASM technology.

The MEME.ZKWASM() hackathon, hosted by Delphinus Lab and co-organized by BeWater and SevenX Ventures, successfully concluded after a month. As the developer of the first open-source zkWASM virtual machine, Delphinus Lab has received support from well-known investment institutions such as Binance Labs and OKX Ventures, aiming to achieve exclusive rollup services at the application layer through zkWASM, promoting the growth of the Web3 decentralized application ecosystem and seamlessly bringing browser applications into the Web3 era.

zkWASM technology achieves smart contract verification by running WASM code and generating zkSNARK proofs of execution traces, allowing applications to be easily deployed on any decentralized platform. As a general compilation target supporting various programming languages such as C, C++, Java, Rust, Go, Ruby, Swift, TypeScript, etc., zkWASM is bringing more traditional developer power to the blockchain world.

This hackathon attracted a total of 57 teams to participate, with 28 teams in the MEME track and 29 teams in the game track, fully demonstrating the enthusiasm of Asian developers and creators for zkWASM technology. After a month of fierce competition, 10 outstanding projects emerged from the two tracks, sharing a total prize pool of $100,000.

In addition to the technical and ecological partners mentioned above, the hackathon also received support from media and community partners such as TechFlow, MetaEra, DeBox, Moledao, OpenBuild, HackQuest, PlanckerDAO, LXDAO, Rebase Community, SeeGrowth, WhaleDAO, Peking University Blockchain Association, Lingnan University Blockchain Association, Shenzhen University Blockchain Association, Zhejiang University Blockchain Association, 0xU, etc., helping to expand the influence of zkWASM technology and promote more developers to participate in the innovation wave.

First Prize (prize 15,000 USDT) awarded to the zkRPS project. This project implemented real-time gesture recognition through computer vision technology and mediapipe, innovatively transforming the traditional rock-paper-scissors game. The project also uses zkWASM to execute game logic, ensuring the safety and fairness of the game process.

Second Prize (each project prize 10,000 USDT) awarded to two featured projects:

Veilcraft: The first Roguelike card game that integrates AI generation mechanisms. Players can unlock diverse hero characters, collect powerful cards, and compete in various modes including dynamic stories, challenges, and PvP.

Dolphin Sparta: A dreamy underwater world game where players can train elite dolphin warriors and build their own underwater army. The game features two distinctive soldier types, spear dolphins and swordsmanship dolphins, working together to fight against the ultimate BOSS, the evil whale.

Third Prize (each project prize 5,000 USDT) also awarded to two winning projects:

EcoDolphin: Innovatively integrates environmental protection concepts into gameplay. Players control brave dolphins to collect ocean waste to earn $DOL tokens while avoiding shark attacks. The project ensures fairness in the game through zkWASM, achieving a perfect combination of entertainment and environmental protection.

CoinPUPS: A Telegram click game based on meme elements, launched on the Mantle and TON blockchains in July 2024. The project was co-developed with BlockBooster and supported by Animoca Brands and Mantle, aiming to set new records in the click game sector of the crypto ecosystem.

First Prize (prize 15,000 USDT) awarded to the Bullish project. This project has created an innovative full-chain advertising platform that achieves multiple rewards for a single transaction. Currently, the platform provides verified high-quality traffic services across more than 15 blockchain networks, redefining the future of on-chain advertising marketing.

Second Prize (each project prize 10,000 USDT) awarded to two highly creative projects:

Dokuan: This is a creative MEME project originating from the Terra incident, humorously helping the community heal trauma while also conveying a warning to the industry: in the crypto world, fraud not only faces legal sanctions but will also be remembered as part of MEME culture. The project aims to promote a healthier accountability culture in the industry through creative expression.

DeadChu: An innovative NFT community project that cleverly merges the characteristics of Pokemon (Pikachu) and Deadpool to create a unique character IP.

Third Prize (each project prize 5,000 USDT) awarded to:

Burger: This is a community-driven project, originating from the historical moment of Trump using cryptocurrency to buy burgers. Under a complete community autonomy mechanism, it gathers top talents in the crypto field, striving to become a leading IP in the food-themed meme sector.

Eddy: A creative token project inspired by the animated series (Family Guy), equipped with custom AI. Eddy is not just a token but also a character with personality, planning to expand in multiple blockchain ecosystems.

During this month, we witnessed every exciting moment of developers and creators from conception to breakthrough. Every line of code and every innovative attempt has driven the Web3 ecosystem forward. This is not only a successful conclusion to a hackathon but also a new starting point for the development of zkWASM technology. We look forward to continuing to explore the infinite possibilities of blockchain technology with all ecological partners in the future.
