second prize
Looner
Looner creates a unique "reality + blockchain" experience by combining real-world treasure hunts with digital rewards. This project is not only a game, but also a social experiment aimed at reconnecting us to the physical world. Users navigate puzzles, explore ancient artifacts and secrets, and accumulate points through a loyalty program to participate in special missions.
Looner is based on Caldera and Celestia, processing transactions outside the Ethereum mainnet, improving transaction speed and efficiency and reducing costs. At the same time, it uses Owl Protocol to optimize smart contracts and wallet integration to ensure the efficiency of NFT transactions. The technical foundation also includes containerization and cloud infrastructure of Docker and Droplets, as well as flexible data management and dynamic user experience provided by PayloadCMS and Next.js.
As a user, you can enjoy the process of obtaining NFTs through puzzles and exploration, and accumulate points through the loyalty program to unlock special tasks. At the same time, future plans to support augmented reality (AR) are even more exciting. This is a unique experience that combines reality and digital.
Memefeed
Memefeed is committed to providing a tool platform for each community to create meme images. This project was originally used internally by Google and Tinder, and is now re-launched by combining encryption technology to utilize a verifiable, minimally censored, and privacy-first infrastructure. Users can generate and share memes through Memefeed.
In terms of technical architecture, Memefeed publishes data directly to Celestia through a single sorter, achieving efficient data management and transaction processing. Data is stored in the form of blobs, allowing full nodes to reconstruct the state. Currently, transaction records are in a pending state and will be updated to the final state through data availability worker nodes in the future. The platform also plans to develop node synchronization and image verification functions to ensure the integrity and security of the data.
In terms of user experience, Memefeed provides a user-friendly platform that authenticates transactions through transaction signatures and JWT tokens to ensure the security of transaction payments. In the future, a la carte packages or subscription payment models will be introduced, and contributors will be rewarded. The platform plans to diversify data availability through tokens, ensure the privacy of room metadata, and protect users' interactive content.
Through its innovative technology and design, Memefeed provides users with a fun and resonant interactive platform, redefining the way communities communicate.
SlothChain
SlothChain is a meme public chain designed for lazy people. It forks the modular Rolllup public chain Rollkit and uses smart contracts such as CosmWasm and DAODAO. The project was originally created for Celestia's ⎡Infinite Space Bazaar" to create a meme-themed chain to serve users who love Meme culture.
SlothChain features include using Celestia light client for data processing, creating blocks only when there are transactions, and the native token is ULAZY. The Celestine Sloth Society NFT "Sloths" on the chain can be transferred to any chain through IBC and ICS721 and used for governance. Through the "Proof of Laziness" mechanism, users can pledge Sloth to participate in governance and may receive LazyCoin (not yet online).
Future plans include adding more interesting meme content, such as sloth emojis, slower blocks, etc., to further highlight the theme of laziness. We hope to make SlothChain an interesting governance project that the Sloth community can lazily participate in, and add some radical cross-chain features, with the overall goal of making SlothChain more interesting, lazy, and full of memes.
Quoise Gaming
Project Quoise Gaming is an AI-driven blockchain gaming platform. The platform runs on Quoise Chain, providing high data availability and seamless gaming experience. Users can use these innovative applications through the Quoise portal and earn QuoTokens as rewards.
The platform aims to make blockchain game development simple and accessible, even for people with little programming experience. It integrates advanced AI technology to provide AI-driven narratives and streamlined, easy-to-use blockchain integration to ensure timely delivery of AI-generated content.
Project Quoise Gaming will develop into a thriving marketplace offering a diverse range of games, from strategy games to RPGs and educational puzzles. This vibrant community will become a hub for developers to share, collaborate and innovate, providing users with endless possibilities and fun.
